Do I have to clone an additional submodule (which is not mentioned in the docu)?
Beman's docs appear to lack instructions for how to clone the super-project and initialize the sub-modules. That would be a nice addition. I don't know the steps and can't find them ATM, but I know it's documented *somewhere*. Beman?
Just added: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost
I've tried to carry out these instructions but changing the names and files a tiny bit (Windows 7)
but I've stumbled at the test run stage with
thrice_test.cpp thrice_test.cpp(1) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/trivial/twice.hpp': No such file or directory
but it is here
I:\boost-trunk\libs\trivial\include\boost\trivial\thrice.hpp
thrice != twice! Is that a typo in your email or in your code?
No I wanted to change the name of the library and its code. Does "boobooboo" ;-)
I *think* I've got the directory structure right, and I created a symbolic link that looks promising:
I:\boost-trunk\boost>mklink /d trivial ..\libs\trivial\include\boost\trivial
So you tried to create the symlinks manually...
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/StartModDev says "Create a symlink to simulate your library being installed as part of Boost: Windows: mklink /d simple ..\libs\simple\include\boost\simple POSIX: ln -s ../libs/simple/include/boost/simple simple"
If you followed the documentation, you should have called this instead:
cmake -P forward_headers.cmake
Huh? I'm not using cmake am I? I'm using bjam/b2 aren't I? But thanks Paul
