Compile Errors - Mapserver 4.10.0 and Regex 0.12

Wed Feb 7 06:00:38 EST 2007

Hi,

I am trying to compile Mapserver 4.10.0 under VC 2005 (.NET 2.0) on Windows
XP SP2. I have managed to sort out most of the compilation errrors (GD
related libraries, despite using the precompiled bgd.lib stub), but keep
getting these Regex errors. I am new to C / C++ so I need help. 

I am using to stock regex library from GNU.org, and have tried the GnuWin
Regex Library, as well as thew Boost C++ regex library. Is it the VC8
non-standard "safe" C++ compiler? I don't know where to go from here. I am
following the documentation / Win32 Compile howto from the UMN Mapserver
site. Is it maybe also the crtdefs.c include causing problems, and if so
what is the workaround.

Below is the output from the compile nmake /f makefile.vc for Mapserver:
