Hi
all,
Just found this,
apparently a bug, in BoostJam. I'm using an admittedly old version of Boost,
V1.36.0, in this particular instance. I'm using the latest BoostJam,
V3.1.17.
This occurs on
Windows when the TMP environment variable contains spaces. In my case it
was
"C:\Documents and
Settings\xxxxxxxxxxx\Local Settings\Temp"
When you try to run
something like
C:\Programs\Win32\BoostJam\V3.1.17\bjam.exe
--build-type=complete --toolset=msvc-90 --with-thread
You get
MkDir1-quick-fix-for-windows
bin.v2\libs\thread
'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or
external command,
operable program or batch file.
if not exist
"bin.v2\libs\thread\\" mkdir "bin.v2\libs\thread"
...failed MkDir1-quick-fix-for-windows
bin.v2\libs\thread...
This is fixed
by
set
TMP=C:\temp
I don't know if this
merits a patch.
Regards,
Paul
