Hi Matthieu, Thanks for ur help.. just one last question I have extracted only the thread part in a folder and I am going to use only thread in my application.. Is it possible just to copy the thread folder and then install only the thread part through bjam.. or is it that I have to install the entire boost library in linux box and then use the threading part.... please do let me know if there any possible solutions....

- Get bjam - Compile bjam and install it - in Boost folder, do: bjam --prefix=/where/you/want/ install or if you install it in the standard folders: bjam install

Done.

Hi, I am new to linux and also to boost library.. I am planning to install boost library in linux box (which is a production machine with no net connectivity). i have already got the linux version of boost in that machine and now I am planning to install it. Can please somebody tell me what are the steps needs to be done to install linux.. with commands (I cant use any tool that boost provide to install because ther is no net connectivity in that box). I have gone through the boost website .. but it looks very complicated :) also I have gone through couple of websites but it was not much usefull. I will be really greatfull if somebody can tell me what are the steps (with commands) to install in linux box.

Thanks in Advance, Ayan. _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users

I don't think 'just-installing-one-library' would work, since many boost libraries depend on each other.

I think that this is what bcp is for: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/tools/bcp/bcp.html See tools/bcp. I haven't used it, but you probably just want something like: bcp thread /boost_thread_only HTH, -Ryan
