Hello,
I’m not sure if this is the standard etiquette for this mailing list, but I thought I would follow up on solution I found for this issue.
Maybe it’s of value to someone.
I had assumed that the required dependencies needed by the source file, unique_path.cpp, weren’t getting there because of an inability to get the location to the compiler.
It turns out that “read” and “close” aren’t available via the <fcntl.h> header on this system (SuSE 11.?). They are available in the <unistd.h>… clearly a minor issue.
I was not enthused about modifying the source files in the boost tree, but adding the “#include <unistd.h>” fixed the issue.
Recompiling and adding the Bzip libs/header resulted in 1014 targets built with no “fail” messages.
Here was the edit to “libs/filesystem/v3/src/unique_path.cpp”, line #31:
27-#include <boost/filesystem/v3/operations.hpp>
28-
29-# ifdef BOOST_POSIX_API
30-# include <fcntl.h>
31:# include <unistd.h>
32-# else // BOOST_WINDOWS_API
33-# include <windows.h>

Hello,
In advance, please excuse this newbie question.
I am trying to build boost_1_48_0 and it is going well for all but 4 targets, two of which are the disclaimed <iostreams> failures relating to the bzip targets.
However, I'm getting errors when trying to build :
boost_1_48_0/libs/filesystem/v3/src/unique_path.cpp
Here's the error (there's a nearly duplicate error for the statically linked target):
gcc.compile.c++ /users/mpriest/Docs/Boost/build/boost/bin.v2/libs/filesystem/build/gcc-4.7.0/release/threading-multi/v3/src/unique_path.o

...failed gcc.compile.c++ /users/mpriest/Docs/Boost/build/boost/bin.v2/libs/filesystem/build/gcc-4.7.0/release/threading-multi/v3/src/unique_path.o...
It seems like a simple include file availability issue or a pre-processor define issue, but I can't seem to affect a change in that compiler command through the user-config.jam file edits.
When I run b2 with --debug-configuration option, I clearly see that change the -L and -I options in the user-config.jam file is reflected in the output, but still only see the -I"." option as shown above.
It seems to me that those functions, read and close, should be made available through including the usual <fcntl.h>, and I think it's a bit curious that no other targets fail from the lack of "read" and "close".
Any insight would be appreciated... thank you.
