Bob -
I recently ported several toolkit applications to XP 64, and I also spent
a large amount of time getting a library to work with the MS 64-bit
compiler.
I employed another regex library named PCRE in my application. PCRE was
written for Unix, not MS Windows, but it did have support for a cross-
platform build tool called CMake. CMake proved very helpful in producing
Visual Studio 2003 project files for PCRE.
There was no support for the MS 64-bit compiler, though. The best I could
do was to use CMake to generate makefiles on XP (32-bit) and adapt those
makefiles for the 64-bit compiler.
I also spent a lot of time reading compiler docs on both platforms.
I haven't been using Boost or even C++, though, so I can't be much help
yhere. I can only suggest that you port only the Boost libraries you
need for now. Have you contacted any boost mailing lists about this?

Greetings,
I'm trying to use the Boost (boost.org) C++ library, including the regex
library, in a Windows XP x64 application for Wildfire 3.0. This involves
compiling for the 2003 platform SDK, not Visual Studio.
As I've met with almost no success, any assistance would be appreciated.
