Hi all,

I have build the bjam tool and then I run the following: bjam toolset=sun stdlib=sun-stlport address-model=64 stage

When I try to link with the generated libboost_thread.so I get the following error:

ld: fatal: file /libboost_thread.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Does this mean that the libraries are compiled for 32bit instead of 64bit?

Rather, it seems like the library is built as 64-bit code, while your application is 32-bit. Are you passing -m64 or whatever option is suitable for the sun compiler when building your application? - Volodya
