Hi, I would like to use the boost regex lib in a c++ program. This is being
developed under gnu/linux (Debian-Sarge Kernel 2.4.27) with gcc 3.3.5.
Also, we are creating binaries for Win32 by cross compiling with MinGW
(i586-mingw32msvc-g++ (GCC) 3.4.2 (mingw-special)).
 
Thus, i have to build the boost::regex library for both gnu/linux and win32.
There was no problem to get the linux version (it is included in Debian, and
anyway the source succeded to compile), but i'm having trouble to compile
the win version.
 
I compile from <boost_root_dir>/boost_1_31_0/libs/regex/build by using
generic.mak (make -f generic.mak). in this file i've just added these lines:
CXX=i586-mingw32msvc-g++
LINKER=i586-mingw32msvc-ar
 
This is the output i obtain:
 
xxxxx_at_xxxxx:~/boost/boost_1_31_0/libs/regex/build$ make -f generic.mak
i586-mingw32msvc-g++ -o generic/boost_regex/c_regex_traits.o -c -O2
-I../../../ ../src/c_regex_traits.cpp
../src/c_regex_traits.cpp: In static member function `static size_t
boost::c_regex_traits<boost::regex_wchar_type>::strnarrow(char*, size_t,
const boost::regex_wchar_type*)':
../src/c_regex_traits.cpp:1052: error: `wcstombs' is not a member of `std'
make: *** [generic/boost_regex/c_regex_traits.o] Error 1
 
any clues about what i'm doing wrong?
 
thanks
