The confusion over the V1 and V2 Boost.Build has been extremely frustrating.
Once I found the V2 manuals I was able to make some progress.

Building the example hello I did the following,

In the boost-build directory file user-config.jam was updated

using gcc;

using gcc : 3.3.3 g++ /usr/local/gcc/3.3.3/bin;

This seems to get me the compiler I want to use for the build. Can I assume
this is a V2 file? When I build boost will this file be used?

Then on the command line using V2 syntax in example/hello,

bjam cflags="-m64" linkflags="-m64"

This builds me an ELF64 executable.

Now if I want to build boost and would like to set up a configuration file.
I'm not sure what its name would be or what directory it would be placed in.

Some of what we need to set is as follows,

bjam --prefix="~/boost-stl/local/boost_1_31_0" -sTOOLS="gcc-stlport"
-sBUILD="<t

hreading>multi <stlport-iostream>on <runtime-link>dynamic release debug"
-sSTLPO

RT_4.6.1_PATH=~/boost-stl/local -sSTLPORT_VERSION=4.6.1
STLPORT_LIB_DIRECTORY=li

b -sSTLPORT_INCLUDE_DIRECTORY=include/stlport install

I don't know if this is V1 or V2 syntax! I'd like to have this information
in a configuration file and not the command line.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi,
I'm afraid you did not provide enough information. What compiler are you
using
-- gcc or sun? What Boost.Build version do you use, V1 or V2?

For gcc and V1, you *probably* can try

bjam -sBUILD="<address-model>64"

which will add -m64 option. I say probably, because it's a wild guess, I
don't
know what that option does and what you really want.

In all other cases, could you tell us what options for which compiler you
want. This might be a small enough change to be done quickly.

And in the meantime, you can always use <cxxflags> feature to pass whatever
flags you want.

The confusion over the V1 and V2 Boost.Build
