See http://boost.cowic.de/rc/ Please download the file for your favorite platform, try a build, and let us know if it works OK. We like some independent confirmation before pushing the files up to SourceForge. Thanks, --Beman

Hi, I know that this is an old toolset, but I use it to check with an old gcc compiler. cygwin-1.5 gcc-3.4 ============= There is a bjam ERROR and it stops.
cd /boost/v45 bjam

Non. I will try it. Do you mean that we need to update the bjam version when we update the Boost version? Is this written somewhere? Best, Vicente

The official procedure to build each release is: ./bootstrap.sh ./bjam If you're using system-wide bjam, you should be prepared that eventually, it will cease to work. There will be better checking and reporting of required version in future. - Volodya

cygwin-1.7 gcc-4.3 ============= cd /boost/v45 bjam -j2 Everything is OK (except that I have not installed python and this is not recognized) Vicente P.S. Rene, I didn't need to build bjam for this platform. $ bjam --version Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 12) Boost.Jam 03.1.18 I had an older version with cygwin 1.5. $ bjam --version Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 12) Boost.Jam 03.1.17

a little late but FWIW it builds ok on: ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32bit + gcc 4.5.1 vista 32bit + msvc9 builds with a few errors (mainly in Boost.Thread) on vista 32bit + cygwin + gcc 4.5.1 the output of ./bjam -j 2 from all three runs can be found here: http://kifri.fri.uniza.sk/~chochlik/boost_1_45_0_rc_log/ BR, Matus
It's not a killer for the release (and my apologies for not looking at this earlier), but I'm unable to build the PDF's for this release, bjam fails with: error: Unable to find file or target named error: '../../../LICENSE_1_0.txt' error: referred from project at error: '../../tools/build/v2/engine/doc' I'll look into disabling Boost.Build's docs for now, John.

We got an issue in Spirit. I am responsible for that. See these posts http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.devel/3874 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.devel/3875 for more information. There is completely new, partially broken code that does not interfere with existing code. The fix is trivial and definitely does not worse things at all as the existing code is just plain wrong. It can't get worse than that. Is there any chance to get the patch in 1.45 - or at least a note in the docs of Spirit linking to a trac ticket with the patch? I apologize for the inconvenience. I am really sorry :( Best regards, Christopher

Oh, it can get worse. :-) Honestly, I'm not of a mind to hold up the release for this. No existing code will be broken by this, is that correct? If only new functionality is broken, then folks can wait for a working version.

That depends on whether Beman has rolled the release already and whether you have a doc patch ready to go.
I apologize for the inconvenience. I am really sorry :(
It happens. Too bad it wasn't spotted sooner. -- Eric Niebler BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com

I feel the same way.
If Beman has rolled the release.. AN option would be to put something on the web site notes (and release posts). -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

What do you think about an "Known issues" section on the release notes?

Yeah, just code that uses a new fusion feature (adapted 'abstract data types') will be affected.
As the release is finally on its way I do not want to interrupt the process. I created a track ticket and attached the patch to it. https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4871 Version is set to Boost 1.46.0, Milestone is set to Boost 1.47.0. The compile errors are pretty much straightforward and I guess spirit users will search the trac tickets first. I am sorry for the inconveniences. Best regards, Christopher
Nothing from John, so I'll continue with the release process.
Nod, it was taking so long to build all the PDF's that I needed to go off to bed! In any case as I said before, I'll patch my local copy to exclude Boost.Build from this set of PDF's, so *don't hold the release for this*. John.
