I posted this message to the openvrml discussion list, but I have a

problem compiling openvrml 0.15.9
2005-12-12 14:30
Hi.

I am trying to compile openvrml 0.15.9 to get the mozilla plugin. I had 
to install a couple of the dependencies - the biggest and most time 
consuming one being boost-1.33.1. I also had to recompile mozilla to 
grab the development includes/libraries that I normally get rid of when 
I compile it. After getting the libraries into place, the compile worked 
for quite a while without problems, but then I ran into this large 
stumbling block which seems to be right at the end! (just my luck huh?)

Can someone please suggest how to resolve this ?

Would this version of openvrml not be compatible with the latest boost 
maybe?

Thanks,

openvrml-develop is the only OpenVRML discussion list I know about. It
is subscriber only, though, to avoid spam; so please subscribe the list
if you intend to continue posting.

I've only tested 0.15.9 with Boost 1.32.0. Boost revisions are not
guaranteed to be backward compatible, unfortunately.

Possible; but this error looks more like *your C++ compiler* is not
compatible with the latest Boost. What gcc version are you using?

If you look on the main sourceforge page where you list the versions, my 
question appears at the bottom of that now.  whoops.

I am using GCC version 3.2.2.

I guess I can try the previous boost version if you think that 1.32.0 
might work... Boost takes forever to compile!

Ah, right. I wish SourceForge provided a means to disable responses to 
news items.

gcc 3.2.2 is a bit old; I don't know if Boost claims to support it or 
not. Boost 1.32.0 probably stands a better chance of working with that 
compiler simply by virtue of being older, though.

You can thank the broken philosophy behind Boost's build system for the 
length of its compile time. I believe it compiles *every* configuration 
variant supported by its build system as a matter of course. So you end 
up compiling the same library multiple times in different ways. This is, 
presumably, a convenience for the Boost developers who want to test all 
configurations. But it's a hell of a thing to impose on users.

I seem to recall that you can specify which configuration to build? You 
might need to edit some jamfile or set environment variables or 
something?
