How to fix error when building boost - MSVC ?

[AharonTam]

While trying to build boost with Microsoft Visuall Studio VC++ 6.0,

I get the following compilation error;

Compiling...
instantiate_cpp_exprgrammar.cpp
c:\program files\boost_1_33_1\boost\spirit\iterator\multi_pass.hpp(763) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
        (compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1794)
         Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++
         Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information
Command line warning D4028 : minimal rebuild failure, reverting to normal build
Error executing cl.exe.

The line # 763 in c:\program files\boost_1_33_1\boost\spirit\iterator\multi_pass.hpp(763):

==>   typedef typename InputPolicyT::BOOST_NESTED_TEMPLATE inner<InputT> input_t;

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,
Aharon

I've had such a problem too.
If you're using VS2003 without Service Packs then the trouble is in the VS - it need Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 Service Pack 1 (KB918007) to fix the problem.
