I use the following: set MINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=e:\bin\mingw bjam -sTOOLS=mingw --prefix=e:\bin\mingw -sSUFLIB=.a -sSUFDLL=.dll install (note: -sSUFLIB=.a and -sSUFDLL=.dll are required if you want the conventional MinGW file extensions.) > I realize that this problem has been reported already to the boost, but I > can't find any fix. > (ref. http://lists.boost.org/MailArchives/boost/msg60443.php) So you use Dev-Cpp? > Does any fix exist? Sorry, I don't know. I've never used Dev-Cpp. (I prefer Eclipse.) Anyway, maybe you could install plain MinGW separately just for compiling Boost and then move the libraries over to Dev-Cpp? Awkward, of course, but unless you plan to modify Boost itself, not something you will need to do very often. Kind regards, Daniel Schlyder |
