Re: [Boost-build] Issues for building Boost 1.34.1

Hi,

Again many thanks for your reply.

Actually, there is nothing wrong with boost build system. Due to some
"internal" reasons we changed the default build names of STLPort library
and hence the linker fails when it is not able to find  libstlport5.1.so
(The default Stlport lib name).

I will appreciate if you could tell me is there any way to introduce
some tweak in any jam filr (stlport.jam ?) so that the stlport library
name should be what I want to (my changed name is libtlport_gcc.so)
nstead of what boost build system picks (as libstlport.5.1.so), if not
probably a softlink is the only solution. 

Best Regards,
Manoj

Can you be more specific? What's wrong with that library name? It would
be
more helpful if you include the entire compile line that you find wrong.

Yes, that's right and as designed. You should specify stdlib=stlport if
you
want to use stlport.
