Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #6741: Compile with VC11 arm

gongminmin@… — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 11:32:47 GMT

I tried for a couple times and it works. The patch looks like this. endian.hpp and msvc.jam are modified.

Also, boost/boost/intrusive/detail/mpl.hpp needs to be patched

after applying patches over 1.53 release we see some linkage problems

msvc.archive bin.v2\libs\date_time\build\msvc-11.0\debug\architecture-arm\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi\libboost_date_time-vc110-mt-sgd-1_53.lib The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

procmon shows that during the build some names are indeed invalid, for example:

Steven Watanabe — Mon, 25 Mar 2013 23:26:25 GMT

I'm guessing that the path is too long. Try building with --hash.

Replying to steven_watanabe:

I'm guessing that the path is too long. Try building with --hash.

--hash did not fix that

"D:\out:bin.v2\..." is incorrect path Under Win32 ':' symbol is reserved and used to reference file streams (AFAIK)..

Another example \"\ in the middle of the path:

5:33:12.6374709 PM cmd.exe 9000 QueryOpen D:\Code\3rdParty\boost_1_53_0\"bin.v2\libs\date_time\build\msvc-11.0\release\architecture-arm\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi\gregorian\greg_weekday.obj.rsp" NAME INVALID
