Hi, all!

1. Is this the right mailing list to seek help for building forks of Boost library modules on GitHub? If not, which mailing list should I bring the next questions to?

2. On my Boost.Parameter fork, one of the AppVeyor jobs gets cut off after 1 hour. How do I split the job into several jobs, one for each compiler or smaller set of compilers?

One per compiler is easy - see https://github.com/boostorg/type_traits/blob/develop/appveyor.yml for an example. In extreme cases, that might not be enough of a split, in which case you can split the tests for each compiler into multiple chunks as well: https://github.com/boostorg/math/blob/develop/.travis.yml

3. The Boost.MultiArray project on GitHub doesn't have AppVeyor or Travis configuration files, so I created a couple for my fork based on the ones that exist in Boost.Parameter. The AppVeyor jobs error out because they don't recognize the compile-fail rule when running the Jamfile script. Any clues as to what I'm missing?

No, but make sure the Jamfile has import testing ; and that Boost.Build is installed.

4. On my Boost.MultiArray fork, one of the Travis jobs builds fine, but the other fails because <boost/array.hpp> is not found. Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, what was your workaround?

You have a dependency not installed, the - python tools/boostdep/depinst/depinst.py library_name line should take care of this - did you forget to update the library name in that part? HTH, John.

My GitHub account is GitHub.com/CromwellEnage, in case anyone wants to peruse.

Thanks in advance! Cromwell D. Enage
