Rene thanks. One step further! Now I've got it building on the first file I get this error which is repeated for subsequent files: ************************************* xlc-C++-action bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.so/vacpp/debug/greg_month.o "/view/gibbonsm/vobs/fxsystems/fxorapido/external/boost_1_32_0/boost/detail/shared_count.hpp", line 366.27: 1540-0152 (W) A template dependent name that is a type must be qualified with "typename".

Hi I'm trying to build Boost 1_32_0 on AIX using vacpp/xlc 5.0.

I've managed to build bjam with with xlc but I'm not sure if I need Python to run the Boost build.

You don't need it. You only need it if you want to use the Boost.Python C++ to/from Python binding library.

I get the following "error" when I run the build:

It's more of a warning. You can ignore it if you don't care about Boost.Python. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - Grafik/jabber.org _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users This communication is for informational purposes only.
