Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #546: boost.build needs fixes for HP/UX https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/546 <pre class="wiki">Hello, I'm using boost on HP/UX (11.11 PA-RISC) with gcc (3.4.4). The default build for boost needs to be fixed for this platform! 1.) -fPIC: Shared libraries must be build as position-independent code (HP/UX linker requires this) on HP/UX! 2.) On HP/UX the extension *.sl is common for shared libraries -&gt; boosts default is *.so (my UNIX-Admin was m irritated be *.so). Do not use "-sSUFDLL=.sl"!!! This generates libraries which will fail during load (for instance signals library). I was able to reproduce this behaviour.
