Compile errors under VS 2012 using Boost 1.44
Hi folks, I'm upgrading a old project, first created using Visual Studio 2008, to Visual Studio 2012. This project uses the boost libraries to implement regular expressions, and a few other things. When I try to compile, I get somewhere north of 2000 errors, all stemming from iterator_adaptor.hpp. Here's a sample... ---------------------- error C2039: 'reference' : is not a member of '`global namespace'' boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 311 error C2065: 'add_reference' : undeclared identifier boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 215 error C2275: 'Value' : illegal use of this type as an expression boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 215 error C2974: 'boost::mpl::eval_if' : invalid template argument for 'F2', type expected boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 215 error C3203: 'eval_if' : unspecialized class template can't be used as a template argument for template parameter 'DefaultNullaryFn', expected a real type boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 216 error C2955: 'boost::mpl::eval_if' : use of class template requires template argument list boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 216 error C3203: 'ia_dflt_help' : unspecialized class template can't be used as a template argument for template parameter 'Reference', expected a real type boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 217 error C2955: 'boost::detail::ia_dflt_help' : use of class template requires template argument list boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 217 error C2039: 'type' : is not a member of 'boost::iterator_facade<Derived,Value,CategoryOrTraversal,Reference>' boost\1.44.0\include\boost\iterator\iterator_adaptor.hpp 217 error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.

Definitely. 1.44 is 2 years old, even VS 2010 might have some issues.
I know that Microsoft has changed some of the underlying libraries, so do I need 1.51?
I would go straight for 1.52. Beta is out, so you even might get upcoming issues solved for the final.
Thanx for any help!

Thanks for the help, everyone. I upgraded to 1.51, and everything built fine. Have to do a full regression test, but all looks good now...

Again hard to say, but I would think it'd be worth a try. - Jeff
