Hi, i am a rookie as far as boost is concerned and i
am trying to make boost work but just cant...on the
point of giving up on it...so please help asap....

i am trying to use a scripting language called lua
with my c++ source code. FOr that I felt the need to
use luabind library which is completely dependent on
boost.(project specific reasons for selecting luabind)

As a result i need to have boost on my system. For the
past 3-4 days ever since i have been trying to make
boost works i have been getting all sorts of 
compilation errors.
mainly they are as follows:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\INCLUDE\memory(16) : error C2059: syntax
error : 'string'
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\INCLUDE\memory(17) : error C2091: function
returns function
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\INCLUDE\memory(17) : error C2809:
'operator new' has no formal parameters
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\INCLUDE\memory(20) : error C2954: template
definitions cannot nest
C:\BOOST2\BOOST\boost/mpl/aux_/integral_wrapper.hpp(88)
: fatal error C1506: unrecoverable block scoping error
Error executing cl.exe.

i did find some solutions of the various forums of
boost recommending to build the latest version from
cvs in order to get rid of the scoping issue. however,
that hasnt solved my case.

could anyone kindly suggest some fixes,
i would really appreciate it,
thanks and regards,
rohit
