Try --layout=system SGL steven.lemay@igt.com -----Original Message----- From: boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org [mailto:boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org] On Behalf Of Jurko Gospodnetic Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 5:22 AM To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Subject: Re: [Boost-users] build under MSVC with changed library name Hi.
I'm using Boost under MSVC (build from source). Can I change the output library name of the compiled libs? Under unix systems the libs are named: libboost_<sublib>.so Under Windows ( http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_50_0/more/ getting_started/windows.html#or-simplified-build-from-source ) there are a lot of other information in the filename. So I need only a special build type (no debug, mt, etc), so I would like to tell b2, that the name of the libraries are only boost_<sublib>.dll under Windows.
I am not really sure I understand what you want here, but does perhaps the Boost library build script's '--layout' options solve your problems? It changes the way Boost library targets get their file names generated. Hope this helps.
