I just downloaded boost package, but seemed not able to compile the example programs. My platform is Redhat Linux 7.3, compiler is gcc version 2.96 I followed the installation guide, downloade the boost package and successfully compiled it. I install it to a directory called /home/hzhang/tools/boost Then when I tried to compile an example program, first.cpp, which comes with boost, I type $ g++ first.cpp -I/home/hzhang/tools/boost/include/boost-1_32/ It gave me this error In file included from /home/hzhang/tools/boost/include/boost-1_32/boost/program_options.hpp:15, from first.cpp:9: /home/hzhang/tools/boost/include/boost-1_32/boost/program_options/parsers.hpp:151: parse error before `
'
Did I miss any environmental variable set up or forget to include any necessary paths in the command? Please highlight me, because I cound't find even the simplest compiling command example from boost web page. Thanks a lot! -- Hongyu Zhang Computational biologist Ceres Inc.
