Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Hi there,

I installed boost with MacPorts, most library works perfectly except boost::regex. Here is the informations from my dev environment:

$ uname -a
Darwin Kernel Version 13.1.0: Wed Apr  2 23:52:02 PDT 2014; root:xnu-2422.92.1~2/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 
$ sudo port installed | grep boost
boost @1.55.0_2+no_single+no_static+python27 (active)

here is the source code, quite simple:

$ cat test.cpp

#include <sstream>
#include <iostream>

#include <boost/regex.hpp>

int main (int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    boost::regex exp("*");
    boost::regex_match("foo", exp);
}
$ g++ --version

Would you please help to check this problem? If you need any more information, please let me know.

Remember to use WikiFormatting when writing in Trac.

You cannot mix C++ runtimes. On OS X 10.9 Mavericks and later, the system runtime is libc++, and that is what boost and most other MacPorts ports are using as well. gcc uses libstdc++. They are not compatible. Compile your code with clang instead of gcc. See wiki:FAQ#libcpp.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
