help building shared library for lib/filesystem on RHEL4 with gcc 3.4.4

Greetings, When I do the following: pushd libs/filesystem/build bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" I only end up with the /boost-1.30.2/libs/filesystem/build/bin/libboost_filesystem.a/gcc/release/runtime-link-dynamic/libboost_filesystem.a Built and no .so What am I missing? Thanks, Bill

In the Jamfile of this library is there a dll target, if so you could probably call that one bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" target in this case bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" dll should build the shared library only and bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" lib should only build the static library I dont know about boost 1.30 but it works on the 1.35 cvs version -- Sébastien Fortier

bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" dll
should build the shared library only
and
bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" lib
should only build the static library

Doesn't work on boost-1.30.2, but works fine with 1.33.1 Thanks for the pointer. Gladd to know it works in some version. Now I just have to find out which of my developers mixed .so's from 1.30.2 and some more recent version in our third party code repository.. -Bill
