I'm trying to set that up with C++ 7.1 but am having a hard time compiling
the unit test
lib's. I use a ''console projects", single threaded, but it keeps naggin about the binary lib unit_test fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_unit_test_framework-vc71- sgd-1_37.lib' and I don't seem to be able to build *that* one with bjam.... I've tried
bjam --build-type=complete libs/test
but no luck so far... Do you have any quick tips?
I have a healthy loathing of bjam. Syntax is weird, doc never seem to tell you what you NEED to know... Does this help? http://www.nabble.com/Need-help-building-boost-on-Windows-XP-td19654083.html bjam.exe toolset=msvc --with-test --with-filesystem --with-program_options \ --with-iostreams --with-threads --prefix=C:\Developer\Toolkits\Boost \ variant=release,debug threading=multi link=static runtime-link=shared install link=static looks what you need?
I've also tried tried the full header include version of the unit test, and that also had issues..
What's your approach/method/configuration on running unit test on MSVC?
I use the included version with the IDE, but the binary library with bjam ful tests. It's a bitch - until you get set up. HTH Paul
