C++ / Boost Filesystem - mismatch detected for '_MSC_VER': value '1700' doesn't match value '1600'

Question

I\'m new to C++ and Boost. I\'m doing a small simple program to trying to learn the Boost Filesystem library. I have followed the directions to build the Boost libs. And now

Answer 1

I was trying to compile the Teamcenter ITK C++ code and got the same error message:

error LNK2038: mismatch detected for '_MSC_VER': value '1700' doesn't match value '1600' in itk_main.obj

The workaround I did was searching for msvcprt.lib sitting somewhere in c: (used everything.exe to search, which can be found on voidtools.com)

Opened that file in NP++ or text editor search for keyword _MSC_VER and changed the value /FAILIFMISMATCH:"_MSC_VER=1700" to /FAILIFMISMATCH:"_MSC_VER=1600"

And yes, I was able to compile.
