Hi
Hi Lorenzo,
after running bootstrap.sh, if I want to pass my compiler (in this case cygwin), is it correct to modify project-config.jam and replace
if ! gcc in [ feature.values <toolset> ] { using gcc ; }
with
using gcc : : : <compileflags>-DBOOST_WINDOWS_API <compileflags>-mno-cygwin <linkflags>-mno-cygwin ;
this way, am I sure that these compiler options will be passed to the compiler?
This should work, unless you have other 'using gcc' in different places.
that's strange: it keeps on building also cygboost_regex.dll, and when I link to the generated library, and run the executable it keeps on searching for cygboost_regex.dll.
Just to clarify -- is the problem in the naming? Or in something else?
I need to use the built library with mingw, but I can only seem to manage to compile boost regex with cygwin, that's why I tried passing -mno-cygwin...
any clue please?
1. Use bjam <other options> -n -a to veryfy the above flags are indeed passed 2. Use bjam <other options> target-os=windows to use the naming of targets suitable for Windows. It appears that you have built bjam for cygwin, so it defaults to that operating system. - Volodya
