Re: [Boost-build] HP-UX build with GNU - Now, needs wave executable?

From: stacie_at_[hidden]
Date: 2008-02-22 15:37:58

I finally gave up on gcc 4.1.1 and upgraded to 4.2.3. Yeah
The build went very well on 1.35 (feb21) except the build has a
dependency on /dist/bin/wave and is failing some compiles in
lib/function_types because it cannot find the directory and whatever it
needs in it.
I searched for instructions to build the wave tool,  and I see it's
directory in /tools but I am new to Jam and cannot fathom how to tell it
how to build wave.

can someone help me out here?

Thanks!
