Re: [Boost-users] "error: Unable to find file or target named" when using BCP to change Boost namespace

This got me further, but it ultimately still failed later in the config with a similar error: ... - std_wstreambuf builds : yes [2] - std_wstreambuf : yes [2] - BOOST_COMP_GNUC >= 4.3.0 : no [2] - BOOST_COMP_GNUC >= 4.3.0 : no [3] error: Unable to find file or target named error: 'libs/thread/build//boost_MYextralLabel_thread' error: referred to from project at error: '.' Notable differences in this error message are that now the target it's unable to find contains my custom namespace, and now the project referring to it is '.' instead of a path to subdirectory. Also notable that this new error is the same error I previously received if I deleted the 'boost' output directory after running `bcp` but before running `bootstrap`. So it seems that your suggested past gets past one bug but reveals the next bug. Thanks, Nick On Thu, Jan 16, 2025 at 1:01 PM Дмитрий Архипов via Boost-users < boost-users@lists.boost.org> wrote:

That is a bug in bcp. If you're looking for a quick fix, find this line in Jamroot:

modules.poke $(lib-module) : BOOST_LIB_TARGET : boost_$(lib) ;

And replace it with

modules.poke $(lib-module) : BOOST_LIB_TARGET : "boost"_$(lib) ;

Then run bcp again. _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org https://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
