Re: [Boost-users] very basic boost::filesystem::path question

try passing boost::filesystem::native as the second arg to path() On 7/13/05, Peter Koch Larsen wrote:

Hi boosters

I have a very basic question. Why does path("s:/dbgdata/testdata.2") throw the exception boost::filesystem::filesystem_error with the errormessage "boost::filesystem::path: invalid name "s:" in path: "s:/dbgdata/testdata.2"? It certainly looks as if I've overlooked something quite fundamental.

I'm using MSVC 8-0 Beta 2 and boost version 1.32.0.

Kind regards Peter Koch Larsen
