How do I build this?
You need to configure Boost.Build v2. You will also need to update the source since I have modified the build files to use BOOST_ROOT to reference Boost.Signals and Boost.DateTime.
I've built Boost on Win32 (with errors in the serialization library). I'd like to just cd to the gui directory and run bjam but it asks for a boost-build.jam file.
boost-build.jam is used by BBv2. See http://www.boost.org/doc/html/bbv2/installation.html for setup instructions. You will also need to setup boost/tools/build/v2/user-config.jam. You also need to have BOOST_ROOT in either the environment variables or in the Jamfile configuration.
To get the library working with gcc, you need to uncomment the <toolset>gcc: line and edit the location of libcomctl32.a.
Suggestions? Do I need to learn how to write a boost-build.jam file?
See the BBv2 docs for setting it up (see above).
The new code update contains a few bug fixes, an update to the layout manager logic and a working version of the flow layout (although this does not yet wrap around controls).
I've configured Boost.Build, edited the file locations in Jamfile.v2, and it now builds, no errors, but executables do not run.
They fail with a ddl resolution error. The ddl sought is:
MSVCP80.ddl
I've searched my drive and I can't find it.
I build boost using the free Visual C++ 2003, and built your work using cygwin gcc. I'm assuming that running the build using the gcc tool set caused the signals and date_time libraries to be compiled with gcc. Otherwise, I'll look here for problems.
I'm re-installing Cygwin with Cygwin Python in order to build a complete Boost using Cygwin gcc.
Agony! I found that the executables were included in the gui.zip, and where not built when I ran my build. So, now I simply can't get them to build, but at least they are not linking to a ddl that doesn't exist on my system. I'm cd'ing to the devel directory and running bjam.
