Hi.
Good builds on Windows 7 - 32 Bit VC8 - 32 & 64 VC9 - 32 & 64 VC10- 32 & 64
Libraries were (briefly) tested on and link/execute on 32 & 64 bit projects.
On the other hand, my resulting binaries were two times larger than even the 1.50 beta build. 32-bit binaries went from 4.5GB to 9GB, 64-bit binaries went from 6GB to 12GB.
Previously (for the 1.50 beta) the build only copied the libraries such as "libboost_libraryname-vcXX-opts-1_50.lib" to the stage directory, now it copies that plus the (identical) copy without the "1_50" in the name, doubling the size. Is this some build option that had its default changed?
Yes, there was a fix related to this in boostcpp.jam (revision. I think that was the intended behaviour all along (to have both versioned and unversioned library variants built when the --layout=versioned is requested) but there were some typos in code that were silently causing the unversioned variants not to be built as expected. Ticket: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6027 Commits: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/78937 https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/78938 If this is something that should no be done - it is easy to disable again, but I guess thats for the release manager to say - what he wants the Boost library build to do. Hope this helps. Best regards, Jurko Gospodnetić
