 There should be a previous bug report but I'd rather open a new one.

 I compiled and installed defining BOOST_POSIX_API in the boost
 configuration and my program. I still get the following errors when I'm
 trying to traverse the contents of "/tmp":

 terminate called after throwing an instance of
 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::filesystem::basic_filesystem_error<boost::filesystem::basic_path<std::string,
 boost::filesystem::path_traits> > > >'
   what():  boost::filesystem::basic_directory_iterator constructor: No
 such file or directory: "\tmp"


 So, using BOOST_POSIX_API changes exactly nothing wrt to this bug. Please
 help me out with this.

 Best,


 Eray Ozkural
