From what you can see in boost/filesystem/path.hpp:

# if defined(BOOST_FILESYSTEM_DEPRECATED)
    //  deprecated functions with enough signature or semantic changes that they are
    //  not supplied by default 
    const std::string file_string() const               { return string(); }

    // ...

# endif

file_string() is "not supplied by default". So you have three choices:

  1. Recompile boost without BOOST_FILESYSTEM_DEPRECATED flag
  2. Use older boost library.
  3. Correct source code you're trying to compile.
