Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #404: Building errors on windows with vc71stlport https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/404 <pre class="wiki">Hi, I'm trying to install Boost on windows xp with stlport and Visual Studio .Net 2003. When building it with "bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1-stlport" install" I'm obtaining errors that seems like: c-C++ bin\boost\libs\date_time\build\boost_date_time.dll\vc-7_1-stlport\debug\threading-multi\greg_month.obj greg_month.cpp C:\Documents and Settings\BOUJAC00\Bureau\boost_1_32_0\boost\lexical_cast.hpp(150) : error C2679: binary '&gt;&gt;' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'boost::date_time::date_names_put&lt;Config,charT,OutputIterator&gt;::string_type' (or there is no acceptable conversion) with [ Config=boost::gregorian::greg_facet_config, charT=wchar_t, OutputIterator=std::ostreambuf_iterator&lt;wchar_t,std::char_traits&lt;wchar_t&gt;&gt; ] The log of the build is include in log2.txt. Somebody have an idea of what I'm doing wrong?

You have two choices to work around this issue. You can rebuild stlport with wchar_t support by adding /Zc:wchar_t to the makefile and then build date_time with: (from $boost_root) bjam -a "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1-stlport" "-sSTLPORT_PATH=..." "-sBUILD=&lt;native-wchar_t&gt;on" --stagedir=... --with-date_time stage Or, you can build date_time w/o wstrings:bjam -a "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1-stlport" "-sSTLPORT_PATH=..." "-sBUILD=&lt;define&gt;BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING" --stagedir=... --with-date_time stage(adjust the elipses accordingly) --as posted on list by Bart Jeff </pre> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <dc:creator>az_sw_dude</dc:creator> <pubDate>Tue, 07 Nov 2006 23:28:05 GMT</pubDate> <title>status changed https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/404#comment:2 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/404#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">assigned</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> </ul> <pre class="wiki">Logged In: YES user_id=579686 Closing this old request out.
