Re: [Bayes++] Re: [jamboost] bjam use help

[Lucas V. <lvi...@mi...>]

Okay tweaked some and no luck,  I am thoroughly confused :) !
I went through chapter 19, did the basic configuration as stated, but 
could not get the hello example (or any other examples) to compile

Thank you for the help, Michael, Rene, and everyone.  I appreciate it.



** (topic 1 ) **
Micheal and I thought maybe it's a g++ version issue...   but after 
messing with the boost-build.jam file the errors have changed (see topic 2)

g++ version:
------------------
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man 
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix 
--disable-checking --host=i386-redhat-linux --with-system-zlib 
--enable-__cxa_atexit
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
---------------

** (topic 2) **
configured 'user-config.jam'  --- thank you for pointing out the 
relevant web page Michael (I can be air headed at times :) )
all I see relevant to me is to tell it to use gcc, so I uncommented that



tried following chap 19
tried setting boost_root variable in my profile
tried making a boost-build.jam file
set both of these attempts to the local boost (in 
/home/poobarr/boost_1_32_0)
tried copying the Jamroot file to a 'Jamfile' file for the hell of it.

tried compiling the hello example, yielding the following:

took a look at boost-build.jam but, not sure where to track the problem 
-- or if this output is even a problem
It doesn't say compilation failed, but it doesn't say anything about 
even calling gcc


all of these examples won't compile, I am confused. It appears to be a 
bjam problem
(note this is all being done in the hello directory, not bjam root.  but 
I am using the '--v2' flag)



And finally, after tweaking as I have, I followed Rene's advice, went to 
the Bayes++ directory and tried the following three commands:
bjam --v2 "-sBOOST=/home/poobarr/boost_1_32_0/" (local boost)
bjam --v2 "-sBOOST=/usr/local/include/boost-1_32/" (global boost install)
bjam --v2


all yielding yielded
