Hi, I've been developing some code on Windows using Boost threads which works fine. I'm porting it to Linux and am having problems compiling the Boost Threading library. I'm running Linux Mandrake 10 Community Edition and have attached the output I get when running bjam. I don't actually have bjam included in the PATH enviroment variable as I'm not sure how to do this in Linux so I just copied the bjam exe into the thread build directory - I doubt it but could this be the cause of the problem? Any help on how to solve this would be much appreciated. Cheers Damien ____________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
