After googling a bit, it seems that __int64 is a MSVC type. So, it's unclear to me if I am getting this error because the default python on windows is compiled with msvc, or because boost.python only supports msvc and not mingw. I tried looking at different documentation, mingw seems to be explicitely supported by boost in general. Could someone give me a hint on how to compile boost.python with mingw or tell me if it's impossible ? cheers, Philippe Philippe Fremy wrote:

Hi,
bjam does not seem to pick my python installation on windows.
This is running on Windows XP, toolset gcc, boost 1.39, compiling from source with no changes.

The strange thing is that if I run the same command line, it works perfectly: D:\program\boost_1_39_0>"C:\Python25\python" -c "from sys import *; print 'version=%d.%d\nplatform=%s\nprefix=%s\nexec_prefix=%s\nexecutable=%s' % (version_info[0],version_info[1],platform,prefix,exec_prefix,executable)" 2>&1 version=2.5
platform=win32
prefix=C:\Python25
exec_prefix=C:\Python25
executable=C:\Python25\python.exe
Any idea what confuses bjam ?
I could not find any log file to see more details of what is going wrong... Could you please try 1.40 alpha:
There are different next steps depending on whether it works or not.
It works with 1.40 !

Now, I am seeing a big set of compilation errors:
C:/Python25/Include/longobject.h:47: error: `__int64' does not name a type In file included from ./boost/python/converter/arg_to_python.hpp:17,

from ./boost/python/list.hpp:10,
from libs\python\src\list.cpp:5:
./boost/python/converter/builtin_converters.hpp:119: error: missing `>' to terminate the template argument list
This is stock python 2.5 with mingw gcc 3.4.2 . Should I upgrade gcc ? Or is stock python incompatible with mingw ?
cheers,
Philippe
