There are systems in widespread use (such as those that use uclibc instead of glibc) that do not have wchar_t, and will probably never have wchar_t. So long as filesystem V2 still exists, this is not a problem, but V2 is officially deprecated, so might not be around much longer. You need to either: 1. Keep filesystem V2 around forever. or 2. Modify filesystem V3 so that it does not require wstring/wchar_t. (This would be my preference.) ",Bugs,closed,To Be Determined,filesystem,Boost 1.44.0,Problem,wontfix,,suk0001@…
