[C++-sig] std::string crush

[aashish at iastate.edu]

Hi,

I had some sort of similar problem when I was trying to use std::string.

I was getting errors when I was trying to use statically linked
boost_python_debug.lib and in my app linking against static MSVCPRTD.lib
(in VC7.0 using /MDd).. and I was getting heap errors but then it
disappeared when I used /MD MSVCPRT.lib...

An exaplanation will help ... thanks,

I guess that by that you mean that you had generated boost_python.lib by
linking against MSVCPRT.lib on VC7.0 or 7.1 ??

thanks,
