Building boost with stlport?
Hello, I was searching around Google for this but I wasn't able to find any documentation. Is there a way to reliably build the latest version of Boost using STLport on Windows instead of letting boost use Microsoft's STL implementation? Thanks in advance. --------- Robert Dailey
So I did some investigation on this and I found out the following:
user-config.jam looks like:
using msvc : 7.1 ;
using stlport : 5.1 :
C:/Code/work/rdailey-t510/depot/dev/gfe-dev/server/external/stlport/WINNT5.0_OPT.OBJ/stlport
:
C:/Code/work/rdailey-t510/depot/dev/gfe-dev/server/external/stlport/WINNT5.0_OPT.OBJ/lib
;
And the command I'm using to build boost is:
b2 toolset=msvc link=shared threading=multi stdlib=stlport-5.1
--build-type=complete stage
However during the build process, when the DLL files are being linked, they
fail with unresolved externals from STLport. My STLport library is named
like so: stlport.5.1.lib
Anyone know why this is failing?

Can someone PLEASE help me out here? I'm getting no responses.
If there are proper instructions for building for STLport out there
somewhere, with explicit step by step instructions, please let me know as
that would be very helpful to have.

Well, your setup looks fine so far.
If there are proper instructions for building for STLport out there somewhere, with explicit step by step instructions, please let me know as that would be very helpful to have.
There is little one can do without further diagnostics. Please provide at least one compile and the failing link command with output. And try to build with --debug-configuration and provide that output. running b2 with -n will only dump the command line. STLport is not used much nowadays. Used to use it with msvc-6 and 7.1, but those are loooong gone here. Yours, Jürgem -- Dipl.-Math.
