[Boost-users] [filesystem] Using path in shared library fault (?)

Hello all,

I am using filesystem::path is a shared library called 'common', to
initialise a static var.

 static boost::filesystem::path p("/home/me");

However, this give a seg fault (Linux, gcc) when the shared library is
loaded. I am guessing this is an issue with the filesytem library not
being loaded in at the time of the loading of 'common' (when the static
var is initialised) - hence the seg fault. Its only an issue with the
static variable, as all other uses of path in the library work fine.

Is there any way round this?

James
