Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #8951: Duplicate name of actual target: <pstage-gcc\lib>libboost_exception-mgw47-d-1_54.a https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951 <p> Hi, </p> <p> I'm trying to build the boost library and I always get the error mentioned in the title. </p> <p> First, I tried to build it with the default toolset which was Visual Studio and it worked but I cannot make it work with mingw gcc on Windows. I've followed the instructions on page <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#install-boost-build">http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#install-boost-build</a>. </p> <p> Thanks </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951 Trac 1.4.3 anonymous Thu, 01 Aug 2013 19:26:17 GMT <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951#comment:1 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951#comment:1</guid> <description> <p> Windows 7 and mingw-20120426. </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <author>houdelou@…</author> <pubDate>Thu, 01 Aug 2013 20:36:55 GMT</pubDate> <title/> <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951#comment:2 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/8951#comment:2</guid> <description> <p> I think the problem was mingw was installed in C:\Program Files (x86) and it is clearly stated not do so on mingw page. In my case, it was installed with an IDE. I reinstall it in c:\mingw and now it seems to work. </p> <p> You can close this issue. </p> <p> Thanks </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> </channel> </rss>
