Re: [Boost-users] Boost 1.34.0 Builds *Almost* Perfectly - 4Failureswith BJam [Regex/ICU-related]

Thanks for the response.  I'm building all 32-bit.  The log I sent
didn't echo the command I used to build.  It was this:

bjam -sICU_PATH=%ICU_PATH --toolset=msvc stage

I have the environment variables ICU_PATH, BOOST_ROOT and PYTHON_ROOT
set.  I also tried setting ICU_LINK before I built the last time but it
didn't seem to change anything.  Any other build options that you
recommend trying?

Thanks,

Lawrence

Seems to work for me, modulo the fact that the ICU dll's seem not to get

created by the VC project files for ICU: the .lib files work fine
though. 
The only difference I see from your build is at the start where I see:

Building Boost.Regex with Unicode/ICU support enabled
Using ICU in C:\download\open\icu_3_6\icu/include
WARNING: ICU shared common library not found in path.
HINT: If the regex library fails to link then try again
with the environment variable ICU_LINK set to contain
the linker options required to link to ICU.
Defaulting to look for libicuuc ...

The warning about not finding icuuc is a bug in the Jamfile: but it's 
harmless, and the regex library goes on to build and link OK.

I don't suppose you're building a 64-bit version of Boost and have
32-bit 
ICU libraries or something are you?  Just a wild thought...

HTH, John.
