Compiling boost with optional _GLIBCXX_DEBUG support
Hi, How to compile boost so that compilation of user programs both with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG and without _GLIBCXX_DEBUG is supported? Currently, if I compile boost with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG then I cannot compile my programs without this flag, and vice versa. The actual error comes from program_options attached in a file. I gather from the interweb that the error is well known, however, I could not find instructions to compile boost such that both options are supported. -- Cheers Jayesh Badwaik https://www.jayeshbadwaik.in

I don't believe it's actually possible to support both options - as I understand it, whether the option is set or not changes the std lib ABI, so it's a whole program thing - everything with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG or everything without it.

Thank you. I was curious as to how libstdc++ did this without having to recompile it, but then I realized it has different ABI for different options. -- Cheers Jayesh Badwaik https://www.jayeshbadwaik.in
