[Boost-users] Re: Boost build error in Cygwin

From: Robert Ramey (ramey_at_[hidden])

gcc under cygwin does not support wide character i/o.  Hence, all tests with
wide char archives (text_warchive, xml_warchive, etc) fail in this
environment.

I downloaded boost_1_32_0.tar.bz2 and tried to build under Cgywin, here is
the procedure:

1. Download latest Cygwin setup.exe (Version: 2.427)
2. Run setup.exe and download latest Cygwin distro from
http://cygwin.get-software.com
3. Run setup.exe again to install the Cygwin
4. $
bjam -sTOOLS=gcc -sPYTHON_ROOT=/usr -sPYTHON_VERSION=2.4 --builddir=../boost
_build install >& build.log

Build result:
-------------
...found 11563 targets...
...updating 4329 targets...

Looks like the failures is not important, but I am just wondering what is
the cause of these problems.
