The problem is the following, a college of mine build an old version of boost. The college is not longer in our company and I want to update the library to 1.55.0, but I don't know the preprocessor variables and/or options he used.
This information is not recorded. If you're using msvc, you can get most of the raw options from the .rsp file in the build directory, but there's nothing like this for most toolsets.
Ok, thanks but I need it for Mac OS X
Well, there's no way to get that information from Boost.Build. Sorry. The build of Boost needs to be compatible with your project. If you are using any flags that break ABI compatibility (such as -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG), then you need to build Boost with those flags. If you're not doing anything special, the default build settings should work. (Of course, if you're only using header-only libraries, then there's no need to build anything.)
