Hi Paul, Thanks for the feedback! My guess without seeing the error messages is the win::result helper class. It (incorrectly) relies on <windows.h> if _WIN32 or __WIN32__ or WIN32 is defined. I've posted a new errorinfo2.zip to the sandbox, but couldn't delete the old version - permission denied :( I don't understand for sure why the code compiled for me. If the current version still doesn't compile, you could try adding <winerror.h> right next to <windows.h> in errorinfo.hpp. Again, thanks!

A very brief (and probably incompetent) skirmish, with this somewhat interesting looking idea did not succeed in getting it to compile under MSVC Express as a pure console application (no Windows) - clearly not its main application.
