1. Why doesn't --build-type=complete work when invoked from a library build directory?
I needed to build libboost_serialization-vc71-mt-sgd.lib yesterday and went through quite a few attempts to get the options right (from within the serialization build directory). I see now that it would've been easier to use --with-serialization from the top level, but why doesn't the "intuitive" way work as expected?
I had to put in a special check to disable the build-type option in anything but the root to prevent problems with testing. As testing, and other builds, assume that the default builds happen. I don't remember the exact symptom at the moment though. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
