Hi: The following is my boost compile output when trying to compile the latest trunk. Boost.wave fails to compile, this seems to be an issue with boost.spirit. Visual c++ 2005/2008, all latest patches/service pacs applied, windows xp sp3. Any help appreciated. Sean. --start log. Building C++ Boost. After the build, the headers will be located at C:\Program Files\boost The libraries will be located at C:\Program Files\boost\stage\lib Use 'bjam install --prefix=<path>' if you wish to install headers and libraries to a different location and remove the source tree. warning: Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled. note: Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information note: this is a strictly optional feature. warning: Graph library does not contain MPI-based parallel components. note: to enable them, add "using mpi ;" to your user_config.jam warning: skipping optional Message Passing Interface (MPI) library. note: to enable MPI support, add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam. note: to suppress this message, pass "--without-mpi" to bjam. note: otherwise, you can safely ignore this message. ...patience... ...patience... ...patience... ...found 6725 targets... ...updating 12 targets... compile-c-c++ bin.v2\libs\wave\build\msvc-9.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\instan tiate_cpp_grammar.obj instantiate_cpp_grammar.cpp C:\Program Files\boost\boost/spirit/home/support/iterators/detail/split_std_deque_p olicy.hpp(102) : error C2440: '<function-style-cast>' : cannot convert from 'int' to 'boost::wave::cpplexer::lex_token<>' No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload resolution was ambiguous C:\Program Files\boost\boost/spirit/home/support/iterators/multi_pass.hpp(117) : see reference to function template instantiation 'void boost::spirit::iterator_policies::split_std_deque::unique<Value>::increm ent<boost::spirit::multi_pass<T,Policies>>(MultiPass &)' being compiled with [ Value=boost::wave::cpplexer::lex_token<>, T=std::pair<boost::wave::cpplexer::impl::lex_iterator_functor_shim<token _type>,boost::wave::cpplexer::lex_input_interface<token_type> >, Policies=boost::wave::cpplexer::make_multi_pass<boost::wave::cpplexer::i mpl::lex_iterator_functor_shim<token_type>>::policy_type, MultiPass=boost::spirit::multi_pass<std::pair<boost::wave::cpplexer::imp l::lex_iterator_functor_shim<token_type>,boost::wave::cpplexer::lex_inpu t_interface<token_type>
