Building regex/1.25.0 with MSVC6SP5, STLPort 4.0
by Markus Schöpflin 02 Oct '01

Hi there, I've been trying to build the regex library but failed miserably. The compiler always dies with an error in "regex_traits.hpp" C:\boost_1_25_0\libs\regex\build>nmake INCLUDES="-I%STL_INCLUDE%" -fvc6-stlport.mak Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998.

The error stays the same if I try the new build system with the following command line: jam -ftools/build/allyourbase.jam -sTOOLS="msvc" -sBUILD="<include>%STL_INCLUDE%" If I look at the offending line in "regex_traits.hpp" it reads const std::ctype<char>* pctype; Obviously it doesn't know that ctype lives in the std namespace. It works if I use the STL supplied by Microsoft. Does anyone else use this combination of compiler and library and managed to successfully build the regex library? Markus 'mar

I don't use STLPort, but you might try a slight modification to boost/config/suffix.hpp. Search for BOOST_NO_STDC_NAMESPACE, and you'll see the line: namespace std { using ::ptrdiff_t; using ::size_t; } Try adding "using ::ctype;" into the list of using declarations. This may not work, though; I don't know if a using declaration can nominate the name of a template. -- Jim

mixin classes

Hi.. I heard about mixin classes. I searched the net on them but didn't find any clear info. I sent the question to B. Stroustrup and others like Andrew Koenig but I receive no complete answer. Who would help and tell me about these classes and how to manipulate them with C++? Mo
