Re: [Boost-users] Trying to install 1.47 on Snow Leopard using clang toolset gives error "missing argument parent-requirements"

That seems to have done the trick, thanks! The install has worked, anyway -- I'll get around to testing it this weekend. Thanks very, very much! Doug. On 14 July 2011 08:42, Thomas Heller wrote:

Which docs? Did you try the Getting Started Guide? Yes -- on the page you link to, it says "If you're using a compiler other than your system's default, you'll need to use Boost.Build to create binaries." I'm using clang (because that's the most up-to-date C++ compiler I've been able to install on my machine), so I need to build the binaries, I guess?

Building the Boost.Build binaries with the default system compiler should be fine. What you want to do is to invoke the actual building with a different toolset. This is what you want to do: $ cd boost_1_47_0 $ ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/path/to/your/boost/installation $ ./b2 toolset=clang install

these set of commands will build the b2 with gcc, but the libraries itself with clang.
