Hi,
I am trying to use string_algo (specifically split) in my program but I have no idea about which Boost library I have to link to. Library naming in Boost is not very regular. For example, to link to the filesystem classes I have to use -lboost_filesystem, but for linking to uBlas, I have to use -lblas. Thus, the substring "boost" is not necessarily in the library's filename
Can somebody help me?
Thanks!
Hi Mark,
The string_algo library is headers only, there's nothing to link against. (Most of the libraries are header-only.)
It says so here: http://www.boost.org/doc/html/string_algo/env.html#id1709621
which isn't right at the top, sadly.
I can't speak to the naming conventions part of the question.

Sorry, it also says there that some algorithms depend on the regex library, which is NOT header only. I believe the regex library is libboost_regex.a. - Rush
