Back in
the good old times there was boost::build v1, which I was more or less able to comprehend.
Now I've installed boost v1.35 it seems that only boost::build v2 is available; I'm sure it rocks and so on, but I've struggled TOO MUCH to make it work.
Me being a dumbass? Quite likely.
But at long last I was able to put all the pieces together:
- Find tools/build/v2/user-config.jam under boost root
- Uncomment the using msvc ;
- Find the stlport line and write something like using stlport : : STLPORTPATH\stlport STLPORTPATH\lib ;
- Place bjam.exe into boost root
- Run bjam msvc/variant=debug,release/threading=multi/stdlib=stlport/link=shared,static/runtime-link=shared stage
This shit will build debug and release, static and dynamic libraries linked to dynamic C runtime.
