Re: [Boost-users] cannot build v1.35 on cygwin

tried ./bjam --build-dir=boost-binary --toolset=gcc <threading>multi <target-os>cygwin <threadapi>pthread but the result is bash: threading: No such file or directory I look at the options on bjam, there is no option named threading, target-os and threadapi. So bjam just cannot recongnize them. thanks, --- "vicente.botet" wrote:

There is a thread in boost dev and on boost build related to this issue. The problem seams to be related to the fact that cygwin is seen as a cross-compiler and so you need target-os.

Good luck

1. I download the 1.35 .tar.bz2 file. 2. untar it within cygwin 3. copy the folder onto c;\ 4. inside cygwin, navigate to c:\boost\tools\jam\src 5. ./build.sh gcc to build the bjam.exe 6. copy the bjam.exe from c:\boost\tools\jam\src\bin.cygwinx86 to c:\boost 7. navigate back to c;\boost\ 8. type "./bjam --build-dir=boost-binary --boolset=gcc stage" to build boost 9. after a while, the result are as following: ...failed updateing 13 targets ... ...skipped 13 targets ... ...updated 288 targets ...

I successfully built it on linux without any failure.

any comments?

thanks,

James
