[Boost-users] Building boost 1.37 (Regex with ICU) problem with MSVC9 x64

Hi,

I am unable to cleanly fully build boost 1.37 with ICU for regex for x64
on Windows with MSVC++ 2008.

I first tried building with MSVS 2008 SP1 on Windows XP SP3 with ICU
4.0. Building x86 versions first, there were a number of link error, so
I (copy & then) renamed icudt.lib, icuin.lib, icuind.lib, and icuind.pdb
to icudata.lib & icui18n* as a comment suggested on a website I found
via Google. That fixed the x86 errors.

I did the same with the x64 ICU files, and try building, but got 4 link
errors.

D:\boost_1_37_0>bjam --without-mpi --toolset=msvc --build-dir=x64
--build-type=complete -sHAVE_ICU=1 -sICU_PATH="...." stage

Because I had a few post-building error cross building ICU to x64 as it
runs some build'd .exe that obviously can't run on x86 Windows, I
preceeded to try building Boost.Regex on Windows XP x64 SP2 (running
inside VMWare), again with MSVS 2008 SP1.

Cleanly build ICU 4.0, copy & renamed the libs as above, before building:

C:\boost_1_37_0>bjam --with-regex --toolset=msvc --build-type=complete
-sHAVE_ICU=1 -sICU_PATH="C:\icu" stage

The errors that resulted are essentially the same as before.

Any help would be appericated. Thanks.

KTC
