bjam define=_SECURE_SCL shows no effect
hi, after reading through this thread [1] i tried the following to build boost::program options: bjam define=_SECURE_SCL=0 define=_TESTING_SOMTHING=1 --toolset=msvc-8.0 --with-program_options variant=release to test the effect i added the folowing to the store function in program_options: #if _SECURE_SCL == 1 std::cout << "_SECURE_SCL == 1" << std::endl; #else std::cout << "_SECURE_SCL == 0" << std::endl; #endif #if _TESTING_SOMTHING == 1 std::cout << "_TESTING_SOMTHING == 1" << std::endl; #else std::cout << "_TESTING_SOMTHING == 0" << std::endl; #endif the strange thing now is, that _TESTING_SOMTHING is correctly set to 1 but _SECURE_SCL still is set to 1 and not to 0. did i miss something or is there another way to get this set properly to disable all runtime checks for release builds?

Hi, thanks for the hint, but unfortunately this brings up other problems. I tried now: bjam cxxflags=/D_SECURE_SCL=0 --toolset=msvc-8.0 --with-program_options variant=release Now i get the following error: D:/_devel/boost_1_34_0/tools/build/v2/build\property.jam:282: in validate1 from module property error: Invalid property '<cxxflags>': No value specified for feature 'cxxflags'.

I think you have to use "-D" not "/D". It appears that "/" messes with bjam. See the "[build] disabling specific warnings thread".
HTH,
-Chris
Another note - I don't know if program_options has any other library dependencies but if it does then you'll have to rebuild those libraries as well. I think you might want a complete build of boost with the define. In order to have both the default build and the "unsafe" (used loosely) build then you'd want to specify a new ABI flag - though I'm not sure how you do that exactly. -Chris

Hi, i tried that, but i does not work. I now solved it by editing the user-config.jam file: using msvc : 8.0_64 : : <cxxflags>/D_SECURE_SCL=0 ; which works ok. Now i only have to edit it for debug and release builds which is fine by me. Thanks for all the help! -chris -- Christopher Lux | | Bauhaus University Weimar | Faculty of Media - Virtual Reality Systems Group

On that thread I first said that using "-" instead of "/" works, and then corrected myself. It doesn't work, and I can't figure out how to make it work.

It appears that 'define=XXX' does not work, specifically when building Boost from top-level. Would you mind entering an issue in Trac (Boost Trac -- svn.boost.org, since this affects Boost proper), and assign it to me? - Volodya

Well, you replied to a post where I'm talking about the cxxflags=/flag problem, and not about the define=MACRO problem (that was another post), but never mind, I opened tickets for both: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/984 http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/985 I can't assign it to you, though. I have no Trac username, and I don't see any GUI for changing the assignee. Should those be marked as for 1.34.1 milestone?

I'm using e.g. <toolset>msvc-8.0:<define>_SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE within Jamfiles without a problem, so the feature exists. Never tried to use it from the command-line though. / Johan

Right. To be accurate, it's the bjam command line that I've checked and doesn't work.

What do you mean? Property can never start with '-'
or the part after '=' doesn't start with '/'
I shall look into that. Note that "/" has special significance in build request, per docs, but we probably can improve diagnostics. - Volodya

Yeah, but having no way to escape a character with special significance is really bad. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
