Hi everyone

 

Currently, I am trying to get bjam compile boost using an embedded
toolchain. The toolchain runs on windows, but the target is a linux device.
The toolchain behaves more or less like a normal linux toolchian and I am
using msys to simulate the shell environment. Trying to compile boost
immediately issues the following errors:

 

    "g++"  -ftemplate-depth-128 -O0 -fno-inline -Wall -g -mthreads
-Winvalid-pch -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_BUILD_PCH_ENABLED
-I"bin.v2\libs\math\build\gcc-3.3.2\debug\link-static\threading-multi\..\src
\tr1" -I"." -I"libs\math\src\tr1" -c -o
"bin.v2\libs\math\build\gcc-3.3.2\debug\link-static\threading-multi\ellint_2
f.o" "libs\math\build\..\src\tr1\ellint_2f.cpp"

 

...failed gcc.compile.c++

.o

cc1plus: error: invalid option `threads'

cc1plus: error: unrecognized option `-Winvalid-pch'

 

 

>From what I perceive here, I would say bjam tries to use the toolchain as a
MinGW toolchain. How can I tell boost to use Linux toolchain settings, so
use -pthread instead of -mthread and omit that strange "-Winvalid-pch"
parameter?

 

Thanks for any suggestions and best regards

Pascal
