Hi!

I am using xcode 3.1 and I am trying to build a 32bit boost test
application. I have done this successfully on windows (Header only libraries
are working fine in xcode). These are the steps I followed:

1) ./configure
--with-libraries=date_time,filesystem,iostreams,program_options,serialization,system,thread
2) sudo make install

I dont get any error and the installation says it updated all targets.

3) Next, I create a simple thread application to test:

#include <boost/thread/thread.hpp>
#include <iostream>

void hello()
{
       std::cout <<"Hello world, I'm a thread!"<< std::endl;
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
       boost::thread myThread(&hello);

       myThread.join();

       return 0;

}

4) I go to project > edit project settings and add the following two paths
in the search path section:
/usr/local/lib (for library path) and
/usr/local/include/boost-1_37 for header path.

BOOST_ROOT is set as /Users/Framebuffer/boost_1_37_0
I have even tried to change it to /usr/local/ but the errors persist

I have examined the two folders and the libraries and headers are indeed
present there (for eg, libboost_thread-xgcc40-mt-1_37.dylib is in the lib
folder)

5) When I try to compile either the debug or release version, I get errors.
Here are the errors for debug build results:

Both files libboost_thread-xgcc40-mt-1_37.dylib and
libboost_thread-xgcc40-mt-1_37.a are present in /usr/local/lib

What am I missing? Any help will be appreciated.

ALSO, I tried to compile and run a date time example, and it seems to be
working fine. (Both debug and release) Below is the code that is working.
Other libraries like filesystem etc and not working though.

#include "boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp"
#include "boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp"
#include <iostream>

using namespace boost::gregorian;
using namespace boost::posix_time;

int main()
{
       date d(2002,Feb,1); //an arbitrary date

       ptime t1(d, hours(5)+milliseconds(100)); //date + time of day offset

       ptime t2 = t1 - minutes(4)+seconds(2);

       ptime now = second_clock::local_time(); //use the clock

       date today = now.date(); //Get the date part out of the time

       date tomorrow = today + date_duration(1);

       ptime tomorrow_start(tomorrow); //midnight

       //input streaming
       std::stringstream ss("2004-Jan-1 05:21:33.20");
       ss >> t2;

       //starting at current time iterator adds by one hour
       time_iterator titr(now,hours(1));
       for (; titr < tomorrow_start; ++titr)
       {
               std::cout << (*titr) << std::endl;
       }

       return 0;

}

I found this tutorial :

http://soulstorm-creations.com/PROJECT_SOULSTORM_2_0/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47:xcode-and-boost-liraries-a-setup-tutorial-article&catid=18:programming-articles&Itemid=39

and I tried his method and its giving the same 9 errors out of the box.

Thanks,
fb.
