Hi Lars,

 

      Thanks for pointing out the fact that boost sources are C code. I’m still not able to build Boost.Jam, even I’ve set the CC and CXX correctly. It complained syntax errors in ./tools/build/v2/engine/src/fileunix.c:

 

# CC=/opt/SUNWspro11/SUNWspro/bin/cc; export CC

# CXX=/opt/SUNWspro11/SUNWspro/bin/CC; export CXX

# PATH=/usr/local/ssl/bin:/opt/SUNWspro11/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sfw/bin/:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/apps/gnu/bin; export PATH

# which cc

/opt/SUNWspro11/SUNWspro/bin/cc

# which CC

/opt/SUNWspro11/SUNWspro/bin/CC

 

# ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=sun-11.0 --prefix=/usr/local/boost1.46.1-sun --with-python=python3 --with-python-root=/usr/local/bin

-n Building Boost.Jam with toolset sun-11.0...

 

Failed to build Boost.Jam

The last time I used the Sun tools:

* 'cc' was the C compiler and belonged in $CC;

* 'CC' was the C++ compiler and belonged in $CXX.

 

As those sources you're trying to build there are C, it seems wrong to

be trying to force them through the C++ compiler.
