Compiling programs with VS2008 and boost under windows
vc6.0 and boost combine many errors

Use the sample program for an HTTP server in the ASIO sub-Library, and the code is in the Libs\asio\example\http\server directory.

1. Download the Boost source file
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.46.0/
2. Download the Boost compilation management tool Bjam, which invokes the system-installed compiler to compile the source program
Http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-jam/3.1.18/boost-jam-3.1.18-1-ntx86.zip
3. Assuming that the boost compression file is unzipped to F:\boost,boost-jam to F:\boost-jam
Open a command prompt,
F:
CD F:\boost
F:\boost-jam\bjam.exe Install
This will compile and install the Boost library to C:\boost
4. Open menu tools->options->projects and solutions->vc++ directories in vs2008
Add C:\Boost\include to include files
Add C:\Boost\lib to library files

5. New vs. MFC Application project Mfc2008_boost1,
Using the Release configuration
Project->project properties...->configuration properties->c/c++->precompiled Headers set Create/use The precompiled header is not using the precompiled Headers, that is, the precompiled header is not used, or the Compile Boost sample program has a precompiled error.
6. Copy all HPP, CPP files to project code directory under Libs\asio\example\http\server in boost source
7. Edit Mfc2008_boost1dlg.cpp.
This is the added code that is copied from the Win_main.cpp.
#include "stdafx.h"

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include "server.hpp"

#include "Mfc2008_boost1.h"
#include "Mfc2008_boost1dlg.h"

Add a thread function to the Cmfc2008_boost1dlg class:
unsigned int cmfc2008_boost1dlg::thread1 (LPVOID param)
To add and modify code:
Boost::function0<void> console_ctrl_function;

BOOL WINAPI Console_ctrl_handler (DWORD ctrl_type)
{
Switch (ctrl_type)
{
Case Ctrl_c_event:
Case Ctrl_break_event:
Case Ctrl_close_event:
Case Ctrl_shutdown_event:
Console_ctrl_function ();
return TRUE;
Default
return FALSE;
}
}

unsigned int cmfc2008_boost1dlg::thread1 (LPVOID param)
{
Try
{
Initialise server.
Http::server::server s ("localhost", "n", "f:\\"); Local 88 port Listener, Access root directory is f:\

Set Console control handler to allow server to is stopped.
Console_ctrl_function = Boost::bind (&http::server::server::stop, &s);
SetConsoleCtrlHandler (Console_ctrl_handler, TRUE);

Run the server until stopped.
S.run ();
}
catch (std::exception& e)
{
Std::cerr << "Exception:" << e.what () << "\ n";
}

return 0;
}
8. Add thread creation code in OnInitDialog:
AfxBeginThread (Thread1, NULL);
9. Delete Win_main.cpp
10. Press F7 to compile the project. Ctrl+f5 Run
11. The browser opens http://localhost:88/, and a 404 error message appears, indicating that the service has been started. Input http://localhost:88/+ "f:\ The following file name is accessible.

Compiling boost takes a long time, and there's a website that makes a compiled boost library, www.boostpro.com
Download the installer and follow the prompts to select the compilation environment and the required library installation.
