Dave - I am sorting out which sessions to attend and wish there was more of me. For the Boost++0x sessions reading a tutorial is a prerequisite. Is the tutorial on the boostcon site and I just failed to find it? Thank you- michael -- ---------------------------------- Michael Caisse Object Modeling Designs www.objectmodelingdesigns.com

how to build boost version 1_34_1 with gcc in non-standard location?
by Oliver Kullmann 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hello, I'm wrestling here for a long time with the following problem, and I would be very glad if somebody could help me here (seems to be straight-forward, but I can't find anything anywhere on the subject): I have to build some C++ code which doesn't compile with the system gcc version 4.3.1. So I have installed gcc version 4.1.2 locally. Now that C++ code uses Boost version 1_34_1, and doesn't compile with higher versions. Alright, so I install 1_34_1; very unfortunately, linking is necessary, and here is the problem: Obviously I have to build Boost 1_34_1 with the locally build gcc 4.1.2, and now how can I tell the Boost-build where to find gcc??? What I found is to use PACKAGEPATH/bjam/bjam --toolset=gcc-4.1.2 --toolset-root=PATH_TO_GCC_DIR --prefix=INSTALLATION_DIR --build-dir=BUILD_DIR "-sGCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY=PATH_TO_GCC_DIR" install --without-python However, as I had to found out after some time, this doesn't have any effect --- Boost just builds with the system compiler, and ignores all these specifications of PATH_TO_GCC_DIR. Now what is the right way to do it?? I would be really glad for help. Oliver
