Newbie question if anyone can help: Is there a makefile for building boost (especially regex) with a Microsoft compiler for Windows Embedded CE/Mobile (ARM platform)? Any information would be appreciated!

I don't have access to a Microsoft embedded compiler, so I can't comment on how well regex works there, but the regex library is basically "just a bunch of sources" located in libs/regex/src, so you can build them into a dll or static lib using your IDE, or by modifying the makefile in libs/regex/build (but using the IDE is likely to be easier). You may also find that the std lib supplied with the embedded compiler isn't up to scratch, in which case you may be forced into using STLPort... but I'm not sure about that. HTH, John.

If it helps the way I used boost libraries with embedded projects was to just dump the source files into the project. Most libraries like regex are just a bunch of sources. - Michael Marcin
