[Boost-users] Errors compiling with Boost

Subject: [Boost-users] Errors compiling with Boost

Hello --

I'm having trouble compiling our code on redhat gcc 4.4.6 (full specs below). There are a lot of errors in the output, but paring down the list a bit, some examples are pasted below. This exact same code successfully compiles on several OSX compilers, as well as redhat gcc 4.1.2.

I posted this to Boost.Build, and someone informed me I had posted to the wrong list. This person mentioned that:

Does anybody have any suggestions for which headers I might be missing? I do not have direct access to the machine with these compile errors, so it's hard for me to just fiddle with my code.

thanks for any advice!

Amos.
