Re: [Boost-users] Problems: Building Boost with VC7 and STLport 4.6.2

Hi!

I had the same problem a few weeks ago. You've got to use the following command line.

For debug libs
build\bjam.exe -sTOOLS=vc-7_1-stlport  "-sBUILD=<define>BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING" "-sSTLPORT_4.6.2_PATH=D:\Alexander...." "-sstlport-iostreams=on" --with-date_time stage

You need to build release libs with an extra step:

build\bjam.exe -sTOOLS=vc-7_1-stlport  "-sBUILD=release <define>BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING" "-sSTLPORT_4.6.2_PATH=D:\Alexander...." "-sstlport-iostreams=on" --with-date_time stage

This informations is based to 1.32, though. But  I think it applies to 1.33 as well.

hope this helps

Alex
