Hi. I'm trying to compile on windows one linux app of mine which uses a few
boost libraries. I've got g++ and boost (1.43.0-1) installed through
setup.exe. I use g++ through Eclipse IDE. I've managed to get the program
compiled but I'm getting linking errors.
Eclipse executes the following command (I've shortened it a bit removing
other libraries than boost and changed the names of files):
g++ -oresult.exe ./Alice.o ./Bob.o ./Carol.o ./Dave.o ./Eve.o ./Fran.o
./Gordon.o ./Isaak.o ./Justin.o ./Mallory.o ./Oscar.o ./Peggy.o
-lboost_regex-mt.dll -lboost_thread-mt.dll -lboost_date_time-mt.dll
-lboost_system-mt.dll
or, as another attempt without .dll: (the result is exactly the same)
g++ -oresult.exe ./Alice.o ./Bob.o ./Carol.o ./Dave.o ./Eve.o ./Fran.o
./Gordon.o ./Isaak.o ./Justin.o ./Mallory.o ./Oscar.o ./Peggy.o
-lboost_regex-mt -lboost_thread-mt -lboost_date_time-mt -lboost_system-mt
or one more attempt, the same result again, with both .dll and without:
g++ -oresult.exe ./Alice.o ./Bob.o ./Carol.o ./Dave.o ./Eve.o ./Fran.o
./Gordon.o ./Isaak.o ./Justin.o ./Mallory.o ./Oscar.o ./Peggy.o
-lboost_regex-mt.dll -lboost_thread-mt.dll -lboost_date_time-mt.dll
-lboost_system-mt.dll -lboost_regex-mt -lboost_thread-mt
-lboost_date_time-mt -lboost_system-mt
I don't get messages that libraries were not found which means they were.
The errors related to boost.system are:
/cygdrive/d/libs/include/boost/system/error_code.hpp:214: undefined
reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'
/cygdrive/d/libs/include/boost/system/error_code.hpp:215: undefined
reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'
/cygdrive/d/libs/include/boost/system/error_code.hpp:216: undefined
reference to `boost::system::system_category()'
(I don't actually use boost.system in my program, but from the errors I
guess I need to link it anyway)
Those suggesting something's wrong with regex are even more peculiar:
