Is there no possibility of getting help on this? On Fri, Sep 23, 2016 at 10:37 AM, Robert Dailey wrote:

I'm using NDK r11 and I'm setting up project-config.jam to build boost using clang + llvm STL. I'm running into a few errors that I do not know how to solve. I will post my config file at the bottom.

First problem is that boost does not know where to find tools 'ar' and 'ranlib':

clang-linux.archive bin.v2\libs\container\build\clang-linux-android\release\link-static\runtime-link-static\target-os-linux\threading-multi\libboost_container-clang-mt-s-1_61.a '"ar"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. '"ranlib"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

How can I explicitly specify the NDK path to these executables?

Second problem is related to some assembler stuff, I think. I get these errors while compiling boost thread:

clang-linux.compile.asm bin.v2\libs\context\build\clang-linux-android\release\link-static\runtime-link-static\target-os-linux\threading-multi\asm\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.o libs\\context\\src\\asm\\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.asm:30:1: error: unknown directive .def _make_fcontext; .scl 2; .type 32; .endef ^ libs\\context\\src\\asm\\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.asm:30:22: error: unknown directive .def _make_fcontext; .scl 2; .type 32; .endef ^ libs\\context\\src\\asm\\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.asm:30:36: error: expected identifier in directive .def _make_fcontext; .scl 2; .type 32; .endef ^ libs\\context\\src\\asm\\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.asm:30:40: error: unknown directive .def _make_fcontext; .scl 2; .type 32; .endef ^ libs\\context\\src\\asm\\make_i386_ms_pe_gas.asm:136:1: error: unknown directive .def __exit; .scl 2; .type 32; .endef ^

How can I solve this? I have no idea at this point.

I'm invoking the build using:

b2 --without-python threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static toolset=gcc-android target-os=linux threadapi=pthread --stagedir=android stage

And my project-config.jam looks like:

import option ;

option.set keep-going : false ;

androidNDKRoot = E:/android/ndk ; androidAbiVer = 4.9 ; androidPlatform = windows-x86_64 ;

using clang : android : $(androidNDKRoot)/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/$(androidPlatform)/bin/clang++ : <compileflags>--sysroot=$(androidNDKRoot)/platforms/android-15/arch-arm <compileflags>-Os <compileflags>-fno-strict-aliasing <compileflags>-O2 <compileflags>-DNDEBUG <compileflags>-g <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++abi/libcxxabi/include <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/libcxx/include <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/libs/armeabi-v7a <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/android/support/include <compileflags>-DANDROID <compileflags>-D__ANDROID__ <compileflags>-D__arm__ <compileflags>-D_REENTRANT ;
