Has anyone attempted to build boost using the VS2005 ARM cross-compiler? Are all the necessary libraries available in this version of Visual Studio (I know they weren't in EVC4)?
How would I go about actually building boost? My understanding is that I need to modify the jam files to use the cross-compiler. Perhaps somebody has already done it?
With the possible exception of the python lib, most Boost lib's with source are just a bunch of sources, and can be built any way you want, so why not build from your IDE if you want to do something that's not supported by bjam? I can't comment on what std lib support is available for the embedded platforms though... John.
