Hi all,

I've inherited a windows C++ application which I've extended and that I'm 
now preparing for porting to Linux.

I'm going through the app removing any MFC code replacing it with standard 
C++. I use Boost asio and thread and they seem to be requiring me to 
include afxwin.h before any boost includes or it won't build complaining 
that Winsock.h or Windows.h has alreday been included. 

I can bodge around those errors, but then the code doesn't link as new and 
delete have already been referenced from an afx lib.

Is there any general advice for Boost/MFC coexistance or MFC removal?

Thanks,

Simon
