Hi everybody, I am trying to use the Boost filesystem library and ran into a strange problem. When I include the library in a project (automake or standard Makefile) I can link everything and the resulting program runs fine. I get errors like this for even including the <boost/filesystem.hpp> file in a second source or header file: [my path]/boost/exception/exception.hpp:179: error: expected identifier before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:179: error: expected `>' before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:180: error: expected unqualified-id before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:182: error: expected identifier before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:182: error: expected `>' before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:183: error: expected unqualified-id before numeric constant [my path]/boost_1_46_1/boost/exception/exception.hpp:185: error: expected identifier before numeric constant I could not find any examples of linking multiple files in a project with the library, does such exist? Is there something special to include the headers in this situation? If I comment out the #include and any references to the boost::filesystem functions in the second source file the program will compile correctly.
