Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #7216: qcc.jam file could use a minor update for ar https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216 <p> The qcc.jam file is apparently intended for building on a QNX OS hosted target. It is common for the QNX source to be cross compiled on MS Windows and the default archive utility is not available. Would you please add a comment and alternate solution around line 220 like the following. This would probably save new Boost users from having to track down a solution to this in the future. </p> <p> # Modify archive command for cross-compiling for QNX NTO using a MS Windows hosted environment (x86 target used as example). # ntox86-ar rc "$(&lt;)" "$(&gt;)" </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216 Trac 1.4.3 tvaneerd@… Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:34:13 GMT <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216#comment:1 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216#comment:1</guid> <description> <p> This can be fixed by using </p> <pre class="wiki"> "$(CONFIG_COMMAND)" -A "$(&lt;)" "$(&gt;)" </pre><p> in place of </p> <pre class="wiki"> ar rc "$(&lt;)" "$(&gt;)" </pre><p> as qcc (which is CONFIG_COMMAND) can do the archiving itself (with -A). </p> <p> see ticket <a class="closed ticket" href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7705" title="#7705: Bugs: qcc calls non-existent 'ar' (closed: fixed)">#7705</a> </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <dc:creator>viboes</dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 03 Jan 2013 16:58:14 GMT</pubDate> <title>component changed; owner set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216#comment:2 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/7216#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>owner</strong> set to <span class="trac-author">Vladimir Prus</span> </li> <li><strong>component</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">Building Boost</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">build</span> </li> </ul> Ticket
