I'm revisiting https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/StartModDev to try set up a new library. I've started by trying to use the simple 'library' I created over a year ago using a previous version of this document. Is it intended that users should place their 'Boost-Wannabe' libraries in the modular-boost in /libs/mylibrary as other real Boost libraries ? When I assumed this, I found it impossible to GIT clone my existing 'simple' library into the /libs folder as it is not empty, so the 2nd line git clone mailto:git@github.com:Beman/simple.git git@github.com:Beman/simple.git fails. This feels the right place for Or is recommended to use some folder like sandbox/libs/mylibrary/ for one's stuff, including of course a sandbox/libs/mylibrary/include/boost/mylibrary/ to hold my .hpp files? Either way I presume I need a link from modular-boost/boost to point to sandbox/libs/mylibrary/include/ Should I provide a symbolic link /D or a hardlink (as b2 headers creates)? C:\Windows\system32>mklink /D I:\modular-boost\boost\ mylibrary I:\sandbox\libs\ mylibrary \include\boost\ mylibrary symbolic link created for I:\modular-boost\boost\ mylibrary <<===>> I:\sandbox\libs\ mylibrary \include\boost\ mylibrary seems to work. Or do I add this folder to the Include directory list? (Tiresome) Suggestions? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
