Hi,

This is my first post to the mailing list, and I hope I'm not bringing up a silly issue but I've been over this a million times already and I still can’t figure it out, so any help is greatly appreciated.

 

This is my setup:

Windows XP SP2

Visual Studio 2005

STLport-5.1.5

boost_1_34_1

 

I’m trying to write a tiny program, just to get stlport and boost to play nice together and I still have “unresolved external symbol” errors.

 

I downloaded stlport-5.1.5 and built it according to the instructions:

I also added stlport\bin to my path

 

Next, I downloaded the boost_1_34_1 windows installer and checked all the options to get all the libraries and added it to my path.

 

Next, I configured visual studio 2005 as follows:

Tools -> Options -> Project and Solutions -> VC++ Directories -> Show directories for:

            Include Files: Add the path to stlport headers (D:\Program Files\STLport-5.1.5\stlport)

            Library Files: Add the path to stlport libs (D:\Program Files\STLport-5.1.5\lib)

Next, on the project level, I Added __STL_DEBUG to the list of preprocessors.

I’m trying to build a Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd).

I also set the (/Zc:wchar_t-) option.

 

When I tried to link, I got an error saying that libboost_program_options-vc80-mt-gdp-1_34_1.lib could not be found, so I had to build it.

I edited the user-config.jam file to add the following line:

            using stlport : : D:/Program Files/STLport-5.1.5 D:/Program Files/STLport-5.1.5/lib ;

This is the command I used to build the new lib

            bjam --toolset=msvc-8.0 link=static stdlib=stlport threading=multi cxxflags="-Zc:wchar_t-" --with-program_options -a -d2

 

I built the lib and moved it from bin.v2 to lib.

 

As you can see I took every precaution with wchar_t so that all the libs are compatible, and still every time I try to link the simple program I get this error:

 

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall boost::program_options::options_description::options_description(class stlpd_std::basic_string<char,class stlpd_std::char_traits<char>,class stlpd_std::allocator<char> > const &,unsigned int)" (??0options_description@program_options@boost@@QAE@ABV?$basic_string@DV?$char_traits@D@stlpd_std@@V?$allocator@D@2@@stlpd_std@@I@Z) referenced in function _main

 

 

This is the simple program in question

 

#include <iostream>

#include <boost/program_options.hpp>

 

int main(int argc, char* argv[])

{

   std::cout<<"boost stlport test\n";

   boost::program_options::options_description desc("Allowed options");

}

 

 

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thx

 

Gabriel
