[Mac OS X - CS5.5] Compiling / Linking Boost

[Toto RoToTO]

Hi,

I would like to use Boost filesystem library (like I did for my previous windows plugin).

Compiling Boost using Bjam utility works fine. But when I want to link against this library, I have got some linking troubles.

Assuming I have not  set the correct options for the compilation, Could anyone tell me which one to choose?

Actually, here it is my compile command: ./bjam address-model=32_64 architecture=x86 macosx-version=10.5 toolset=darwin-4.0 stage

Boost version: 1_48_0

Best regards,

Thomas.

I have finally solved my problem. Actually I used Boost_1_37_0 revision, the same I used the Windows.

I compiled those library using the following options:

address-model=32

architecture=x86

macosx-version=10.5

toolset=darwin-4.0

For using filesystem library, do not forget to use system library too.

Hoping this will help some of you.

Best regards,

Thomas.

If you want to use filesystem and system libs, do not forget to install_name_tool -change in order to update dependencies link between both libs.

Otherwise, you will have some runtimes troubles. Plugin won't be loaded.
