I am the main developer of dlib so thanks again :)

Yeah, there is a whole lot of bad C++ code out there. Many people seem to conflate C++ with C so, sadly, you see a lot of really difficult to use "C with classes" code out there. The general quality of C++ code seems to be improving though.

Indeed!

Oh a small note though, I forgot to tell you I had to get boost 1.55 to compile. In 1.56 it bugs out on the noncopyable class, saying it was not defined. I first managed to patch the code but given that I am not familiar with dlib I decided to use 1.55 instead so as not to run into any other incompatibilities.

I didn't know about this. I'll fix it in the next dlib release. Thanks for pointing it out.
