Re: [Boost-users] compiling boost with mingw in winxp

Janusz, I'm using version 3.1.0-1 of mingw (its basically the current release that you can download at www.mingw.org) THanks, Alex PS. Sorry for posting in another thread, I don;t know how to reply in the current thread. Alexis H. Rivera-Rios writes:

What mingw version are you using? Regards, Janusz ===== Programming Tutorial: In Python: To do this, do this In Perl: To do this, do this or this or this or this...

I'm at a loss also, I just tried this: bjam -sTOOLS=mingw -sMINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=c:\MinGW And it works fine. Although I'm using MinGW 2. I'll try with the latest soon... -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq

OK. Tried again with MinGW-3.1, and still no problems. Question; What is the location of your MinGW installation? And a request; Could you run bjam with the -d+2 option? Perhaps that will give me a clue as to what may be going on. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq

Actually, try it with -d+4 The spawn problem has to do with the way the build tool kicks off each build command. That much I'm sure of. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
