I tried building straight from Visual Studio 2012 Command Prompt, with included algorithm line, it still fails:

.\boost/archive/iterators/transform_width.hpp(29) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'agorithm': No such file or directory

Is there a workaround for this?

I looked in the 1.55 release, and in the current git repo, and each of them had:

#include <algorithm> // std::min for line 29.

Replying to mwpowellhtx@…:

Is that an accurate error message? If so, then I think the key is the name "agorithm" (which is different from "algorithm") in the error message.

Yes, it is exactly what I got when I downloaded 1.55 sources and attempted the full rebuild.

I have no idea what to do about this. I've searched the whole source for "algorithm" and found nothing. I'm going to chalk it up to come VS2012 quirk

I think what the user is saying is that in the 1.55 release, there was a typo, where the file to include was misspelled. "agorithm" Looking at the logs, it appears that this was fixed (at least on master) by this commit:

8af0e20b (Robert Ramey 2013-11-16)

There's nothing more to do here. We're not going to change the 1.55 release.
