Hello,
    Recently I  used boost::regex in my project(VS2005 IDE). It works well
with linking the lib file. But I want to use the source code of
boost::regex.I include the regex.hpp in the project and used
BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB macro; But I got such error infomation when linking the
code.

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "private: class
boost::basic_regex<char,struct boost::regex_traits<char,class
boost::w32_regex_traits<char> > > & __thiscall

I want to know why I can't use the source code of boost::regex. Is there any
thing I need to do? Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you!
