Hello,
I have the Intel 9 compiler for Windows
$ which icl /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intel/Compiler/C++/9.0/Ia32/Bin/icl
and when I try to compile boost 1_34_0 with the command
the shell stops more or less immediately at:
compile-c-c++ bin.v2\libs\test\build\intel-win\debug\threading-multi\execution_monitor.obj
and a window pops up saying
Windows cannot open this file: execution_monitor.obj.rsp
What do I wrong?
Hmmm, works for me with Intel-8.1 and 9.0. I notice from your message above that you're building with cygwin: it's best to use a regular windows build of bjam and *not* a cygwin build, otherwise all the path names get messed up. The windows build of bjam works well if you're building with cygwin gcc as well BTW. So the first thing to check is that you aren't using a cygwin build of bjam? Then if all else fails, try putting a copy of user-config.jam (found in tools/build/v2) in your cygwin home directory, then edit it to set up the paths to your Intel compiler using something like: using intel-win : 9.1 : "c:/program files/intel/compiler/c++/9.1/ia32/bin/icl.exe" ; After which you don't need the --toolset argument to bjam anymore, just do a: bjam intel install and hopefully something useful will happen :-) HTH, John.
