Boost 1.27.0 on AIX 4.3.3
Hi, I've looked at all the documentation I can find on building boost on AIX for vacpp. However, I just can't get it to build! I'm using the prebuilt jam executable (not the one I built myself as it doesn't work - yacc stack overflow problems) and this is what I get :- bash-2.01$ jam -sBOOST_ROOT=. -sTOOLS="vacpp"

build system is not defined. Attempted to use, as the bootstrap, this file: ./tools/build/boost-build.jam. This means that even though that file was loaded it either failed to directly load the build system files, or it failed to specify where to find and load the files by calling the 'build-system [path] ;' rule. Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'. bash-2.01$ Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Jon.

Hi, I've looked at all the documentation I can find on building boost on AIX for vacpp. However, I just can't get it to build! I'm using the prebuilt jam executable (not the one I built myself as it doesn't work - yacc stack overflow problems) and this is what I get :-
Please see: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/boost/1193795 The version of the Jam sources in the CVS builds on AIX without errors. To rebuild Jam from Boost 1.27.0 on AIX, try make YACC= You will need to get a fresh copy of the boost/tools/build/jam_src directory, as yacc has overwritten some of the source files. -Dave

But I'm also wondering about the version of vacpp you're using. The status-page for Aix on the boost website has'nt been updated in a long time since in the mean time many things have been patched by the visualage guys which makes that I'm working with an out-of-date compiler and thus making porting boost artificially hard. So, I'm looking at updating but in the mean time, don't get scared of when looking at the current Aix status.
Toon, I haven't had the chance to grab the lastest CVS version as I've been off
for a few days but I will try this morning. I checked the binaries to see if
you'd put the new one up yet but it wasn't there.
Thanks for all the help so far,
Jon.
