Description

Does somebody have a binary version of boost Regex 
for Novell Netware? 

If not, I need to use Regex library in my application so I 
need to port it onto NetWare, Compiler used is 
CodeWarrior, any help in this regard especially in 
configuring/generating configuration files would be highly 
appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,
Tribhuwan

There's no binary, but basically just build all the cpp
files under boost-path/libs/regex/src into a static library.
 In theory it should all "just work", however I don't think
we've ever tested on Netware/Code Warrior before, so it's
possible you might experience configuration issues.  If so
please refer to
http://www.boost.org/libs/config/config.htm#configuring for
information on setting up a platform specific configuration.

HTH,

John.

well, I tried as john suggested.
After specifying BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE and 
BOOST_NO_INTRINSIC_WCHAR_T, I was left with one error 
message that I was not able to resolve.

"..\..\..\boost/type_traits/is_convertible.hpp", line 279: error 
#29: expected
          an expression
  BOOST_TT_AUX_BOOL_TRAIT_DEF2
(is_convertible,From,To,(::boost::detail::is_conve
rtible_impl<From,To>::value))

I was using epc compiler on a cygwin host.

any ideas?

Hmm, I'm afraid I'm stumped now, not being familiar with
that compiler doesn't help either.  You could try
preprocessing the code, and splitting up the is_convertible
declaration so you can see what is causing the error
exactly, but after that it's anybodies guess.  You could
also try posting to the boost developer mailing list to see
if anyone else has experience of this compiler there.

HTH, John.
