Hello, I think there would better be a way to prevent other people - as stupid as me :) - from making the same low-level mistake. The posible solution may be a check of the STLport macros in building with STLport toolsets. Thanks again. Max

sorry, the error msg is:

BoostTest.obj : error LNK2019: missing symbol "void __cdecl boost::re_detail::raise_runtime_error(class _STL::runtime_error const &)"

Errors like this usually arise either because:

1) You haven't defined __STL_DEBUG when building a debug build (the prebuilt lib's do this so you have to in order to link to them). However if this is the case you should have got a #error from the autolinking code telling you of the problem.

YES, I have defined the __STL_DEBUG macro for the debug build.

2) You're build of Boost did not in fact get built against STLport. Try taking a peek at the symbols defined in the libraries to see if they're using _STL or _STLD names (from STLport) or std:: names (from VC++). Also try building with bjam and the -d2 option so you can see the command lines generated and verify that all the paths are in fact correct.

GREAT! That really helps. Using a text editor, I cannot find _STL or _STLD names in a should-be STLport linked lib, but I can find "std"! Everything gets ok after I adding 2 lines into the build batch file: SET INCLUDE="D:\STLport_50\stlport";%INCLUDE% SET LIB="D:\STLport_50\lib";%LIB% Thank you so much!

John.
