I'm on Windows XP SP3, msvc71 SP1, and I want to install STLport 5.2.1 before I install/build Boost 1.39.0. The STLport distribution install file (configure.bat) has two options I need help with:
"--with-static-rtl"
"-with-dynamic-rtl"
Does Boost care whether I enable the static (libc.lib family) or whether I enable the dynamic (msvcrt.lib family) C/C++ library when linking with STLport?
Not really, but it is better to use same setting for both. Boost uses dynamic runtime by default, which seems like reasonable choice anyway.
Then, there is the "-use-boost <boost install path>" option - I assume I should use this STLport option for Boost 1.39.0 - correct?
I'd expect that STLport docs say what this option does and whether it is needed.
Finally, is there anything I need to do in my building/installing of Boost itself to make sure it knows I have STLport installed?
Yes, you should read docs: http://tinyurl.com/mvs5ge - Volodya
