[Boost-users] Re: date_time formatting compilation error

I've definitely only got VC7.1 on my PC, so that's not the issue.  As to the
regression tests, I was not familiar with how to build and run them, so I
simply tried to compile testgreg_wstream.cpp on its own, using "cl /EHsc /I
\CVS\boost".  As it failed to compile, there was no question of getting
NO_WSTRING conversions.

Having just read up on how to run the regression tests, I've successfully
built and run those for date_time, so there must be something simple wrong
with my compiler options.  What else do I need, apart from "cl /EHsc /I
\CVS\boost" -which is sufficient for the regex library?

Thanks,
Keith MacDonald
