Category: Building Boost Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jonathan (jonamike) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: "-shared" not supported for linking under MacOS X Initial Comment: When I try to do a plain-vanilla build of Boost using bjam (following the directions at http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html pretty carefully) I get the following results for one of the targets (I note that "man gcc" says that "-shared is not supported under Mac OS X" -- do I need to configure Boost specially for Mac OS X?): gcc-Link-action bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_date_time-gcc-d-1_33_1.dylib powerpc-apple-darwin8-g++-4.0.1: unrecognized option '-shared' /usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols: _main collect2: ld returned 1 exit status set -e DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH "c++" -g -fPIC -shared -o "bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_date_time-gcc-d-1_33_1.dylib" "bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/greg_month.o" "bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/greg_weekday.o" "bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/date_generators.o" ...failed gcc-Link-action bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.dylib/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_date_time-gcc-d-1_33_1.dylib...
