https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9790 <p> Downloaded 'latest' (at least I thought it was the lastest - Version pull down below suggests two subsequent versions) package from sourceforge. After installing, I started reading the "Getting Started" pages and came to the list of "Need to be Compiled" libraries. Since I'm currently after the filesystem capabilities, I built (using the bootstrap and .\b2 commands). I then started through the tutorial for the filesystem lib. </p> <p> I set up VS (using MSVS10), to find the boost libraries, and typed in tut1. Upon compile, I get a link error: </p> <p> LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_filesystem-vc100-mt-gd-1_55.lib' </p> <p> The reason that it cannot open it, is because there is NO ...vc100-mt... Instead, we now have ...vc110-mt... </p> <p> For now, I believe that I'll uninstall, and go back one version. Try to get through the tutorials. </p> <p> I've used boost libraries before, but always with non-compiled headers and with projects at work. I read about the filesystem iterators online and thought that I'd give it a whirl for a home project. This is what I ran into, so I thought that I'd report it. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9790 Trac 1.4.3 Steven Watanabe Tue, 18 Mar 2014 15:37:54 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9790#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9790#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>component</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">None</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">Building Boost</span> </li> </ul> <p> b2 uses the most recent installed version of VS by default.
