Thanks Janusz for your help with gcc. I tried to set STLPORT_LIB_DIRECTORY and it still didn't work. It finally worked when I set my path to my lib directory.

Regarding to installing stlport for vc71. I tried out boost_1.32.0 and I got exactly this error that was described in the link below. I played with flipping off BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE and it didn't seem to make any difference.

The error message was: (truncated) vc-C++ bin\boost\libs\date_time\build\boost_date_time.dll\vc-7_1- stlport\debug\threading-multi\greg_month.obj greg_month.cpp C:\boost_1_32_0\boost\lexical_cast.hpp(150) : error C2679: binary '>>' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'boost::date_time::date_names_put::string_type' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

Ok, I looked at this again and I think I gave poor advice the first time. Try defining BOOST_DATE_TIME_INCLUDE_LIMITED_HEADERS (look at boost/date_time/compiler_config.hpp for more) during the compilation. That will stop the inclusion of the the offending code and hopefully allow things to compile. Jeff
