Re: [boost] Boost, stlport, gcc-3.0.4 on Solaris 8

From: Tim Hawes (tim.hawes_at_[hidden])

A couple things came to mind after seeing this. I am using Solaris' ld , not
gnu's ld. (Do I have to use gnu's ld?) Secondly, is the -fPIC flag being used in
building the libraries? -fPIC for gcc (or corresponding position independent code
flag for any other compiler) for building libs on Solaris are essential. Ommiting
this flag would definately cause problems.

With libs/regex/test/Jamfile, I get:

 cd /usr/local/gcc/gcc-3.0.4/boost/libs/regex/test/
hrdhhs35:[test] # ls
Jamfile  c_compiler_checks/  regress/
hrdhhs35:[test] # jam -sBOOST_ROOT=/usr/local/gcc/gcc-3.0.4/boost
-sTOOLS=gcc-stlport
