I built bjam for 1.31 and then I built bcp for 1.31 using MingW/GCC 3.3.1 using bjam version 1. I then opened a command prompt, went to the root directory of my Boost 1.31 distribution and tried:
bcp --list shared_ptr
I received this error message:
**** exception(205): std::runtime_error: Error opening for output. ******** errors detected; see standard output for details ********
Looks like std::cout was unable to open up a stream?
I then went to the boost subdirectory of my Boost 1.31 distribution and typed the same command as above and received:
no errors detected
but no other output was printed on standard out. I am just trying to get a list of any dependencies which shared_ptr has using bcp. What am I missing in this entire procedure ? It does not appear that bcp is working correctly but maybe I am missing something in how it should be working.
The only way I can get no output (as in your vc7.1 case) is if libs/shared_ptr is an empty directory (Note that listing for "shared_ptr" lists everything used by that lib, including all the testing code, use "bcp --list shared_ptr.hpp" if you just want the header's dependencies). I've just built and tested with Borland, VC7.1, Intel8, and cygwin and they're all working OK for me (with the current release version).
This is my mistake. I built with 'gcc' but I should have built with 'mingw' instead.
