I think I figured out what I did wrong. I built the 7.0 libraries but I have the 7.1 compiler.

Subject: [Boost-users] Linker Problem with Regex Libraries VC7

The linker is complaining that it can't find the file libboost_regex-vc71-mt-sgd-1_32.lib

This file was not built when I made the regex library.

Here is the exsact linker error: fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_regex-vc71-mt-sgd-1_32.lib'

The file libboost_regex-vc7-mt-sgd-1_32.lib does exist on my machine and it is in my include directory.

From the install document

Finally when you use regex++ it is only necessary for you to add the <boost> root directory to your list of include directories for that project. It is not necessary for you to manually add a .lib file to the project; the headers will automatically select the correct .lib file for your build mode and tell the linker to include it.

Is it possible the headers are referancing the wrong lib file?

Thanks
