Boost.Serialization fails to build on Cygwin

Reported by: Václav Haisman <v.haisman@…> Owned by: Robert Ramey
Milestone: Boost 1.36.0 Component: serialization
Version: Boost 1.35.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: cygwin Cc:

Description

Boost.Serialization fails to build because the non-wchar_t variant contains codecvt_null in its SOURCES enumeration which links to std::codecvt<wchar_t> which is not present in Cygwin's libstdc++. See <http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/branches/release/libs/serialization/build/Jamfile.v2> . Back link to the original ml post: <http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2008/04/35196.php>

This is not really satisfactory resolution. Certainly, 1.35.1 is going to follow 1.35.0, it should be fixed there, too. Otherwise it will be out of the box as unusable as is 1.35.0 now.

just tweak your local jamfile accordingly when you build the library. Is this a huge problem? After the library is built it shouldn't be an issue.

I reverse the question, is it huge problem to apply the fix on the 1.35.x branch, too?
