Hi,

 

I'm getting several instances of the following kind of error when I build my
code, which does not use boost::thread, etc., as I use the STD versions:

 

1>c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual
studio\2017\community\vc\tools\msvc\14.16.27023\include\condition_variable(1
24): error C2872: 'xtime': ambiguous symbol

1>c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual
studio\2017\community\vc\tools\msvc\14.16.27023\include\thr\xtimec.h(18):
note: could be 'xtime'

1>c:\program files\boost\boost\thread\lock_types.hpp(31): note: or
'boost::xtime'

 

My research turned up:

 

https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/11477?cversion=0&cnum_hist=10

 

So I added the following value for Windows 10 to my preprocessor:

 

_WIN32_WINNT=0x0601;

 

Unfortunately, this makes no difference. Can anybody advise me of a way
forward, please?

 

Best wishes.
