BCP error for 1.31 on Windows
I built bjam for 1.31 and then I built bcp for 1.31 using MingW/GCC 3.3.1 using bjam version 1. I then opened a command prompt, went to the root directory of my Boost 1.31 distribution and tried: bcp --list shared_ptr I received this error message: **** exception(205): std::runtime_error: Error opening for output. ******** errors detected; see standard output for details ******** I then went to the boost subdirectory of my Boost 1.31 distribution and typed the same command as above and received: no errors detected but no other output was printed on standard out. I am just trying to get a list of any dependencies which shared_ptr has using bcp. What am I missing in this entire procedure ? It does not appear that bcp is working correctly but maybe I am missing something in how it should be working.

Looks like std::cout was unable to open up a stream?

The only way I can get no output (as in your vc7.1 case) is if libs/shared_ptr is an empty directory (Note that listing for "shared_ptr" lists everything used by that lib, including all the testing code, use "bcp --list shared_ptr.hpp" if you just want the header's dependencies). I've just built and tested with Borland, VC7.1, Intel8, and cygwin and they're all working OK for me (with the current release version). John.

Seems like some sort of bug in GCC 3.3.1/MingW.

I tried bcp --list shared_ptr.hpp with the same problems. I was trying GCC 3.3.1, not VC7.1. I will try VC7.1 and see what occurs and report any errors I get. This is really my first time working withj GCC 3.3.1 and evidently there are things about how it works which I don't know. I can try to build a debug version with GCC 3.3.1 and attempt to step through the gdb debugger to see why it is not opening a std::cout stream properly, but maybe it is not worth it if I can get bcp working by building it with VC7.1 . Thanks for checking it out.

This is my mistake. I built with 'gcc' but I should have built with 'mingw' instead.
