summary Mingw64 needs configuration settings → MinGW64 needs configuration settings

I'm having a hard time working out what needs changing as http://tinyurl.com/3xmahna indicates that a custom config/user.hpp file is in effect, so I can't tell which config files it should be including. Can you please let me have the output from the config_info program run with the default do-nothing config/user.hpp?

Thanks, John Maddock

Attached: the config_info.output file with user.hpp reverted to the default trunk revision.

Jim, can you please try running the tests with Boost's default do-nothing user.hpp - I don't see anything in current Trunk that would cause BOOST_WINDOWS not to be defined - it's set in win32.hpp unless BOOST_DISABLE_WIN32 is set - which it isn't according to your config_info output (I'll update config_info to output BOOST_WINDOWS as well). I'm guessing that your use of a custom user.hpp may be at fault as that won't ever set that macro unless you put it there yourself.

Of the remaining macros - BOOST_HAS_LOG1P/BOOST_HAS_EXPM1/BOOST_HAS_GETTIMEOFDAY I've recently set for mingw.

The remaining ones relate to C++0x features - although gcc does compile our test code in non-C++0x mode, it emits copious warnings about -std=C++0x being required for that feature, so for now they're disabled unless you compile with -std=C++0x.

I'm closing for now, please reopen if the current default user.hpp doesn't solve things.
