Supporting boost 1.64 for Visual Studio 2017
The "NuGet" system indicates that BC 2017 is supported. *boost_locale-vc141. Compiler: Visual Studio 2017. Platforms: Win32, x64.* But attempts to use this package end with nothing. Regardless of how I install the "boost_locale" - do I get the same result manually or using "NuGet"? Attempts to install it on another machine ran out the same. Is this a bug? /1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(generator.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::system_category(void)" (?system_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(localization_backend.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::system_category(void)" (?system_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(lcid.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::system_category(void)" (?system_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(date_time.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::system_category(void)" (?system_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(generator.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::generic_category(void)" (?generic_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(localization_backend.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::generic_category(void)" (?generic_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(lcid.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::generic_category(void)" (?generic_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>libboost_locale-vc141-mt-1_64.lib(date_time.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class boost::system::error_category const & __cdecl boost::system::generic_category(void)" (?generic_category@system@boost@@YAABVerror_category@12@XZ) 1>E:\Yandex.Disk\Projects\OS\Release\Devs.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals/ -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Supporting-boost-1-64-for-Visual-Studio-2...

The missing symbols are from Boost.System. Since you're linking static libraries, you'll have to specify Boost.Locale dependencies manually to link with in your project.

When you get exactly those 2 missing symbols from boost system and only those, this is usually caused by the deprecated code in boost system. Please lobby the boost system maintainer so BOOST_SYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED becomes the default (or BOOST_ERROR_CODE_HEADER_ONLY, or anything that avoids forcing people to link with it just for an unused, deprecated definition). -- Marc Glisse
