Dear anyone,

I had a version from svn a while ago which worked, but I tried copying to another machine and it won't buikd. I tried downloading the boost 1.39 tarball and it seemed to work, except I can't pick it up from other projects because it say 1.38 in the cmake stuff and 1.39 in other files, when I try editing it, I get shed loads of errors and my time is limited.

Is there a known to work tarball of boost with cmake compatibility that I can download from anywhere (the git tarball I tried yesterday says "creating archive"....

I'm not fussy about versions, anything reasonably recent. I just need to get one project running again. I'm using cmake 2.6.4 on XP-64

thanks

JB

This seems to be https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2189

This can be worked around by "make modularize", which my packages currently do, but that's less than ideal. It also doesn't play nicely when compiling boost
from a source-control repository.


Ah, I see why I missed that, I was using cmake from CVS to test some new features. This 'modularization' stuff has turned into a bit of a fiasco.

Fixes here:

Here is the direct download link for the cmake/1.40.0 branch,

  http://gitorious.org/boost/cmake/archive-tarball/1.40.0

Included are a bunch of docs, which can be viewed online here:

http://gitorious.org/~straszheim/boost/cmake/blobs/raw/1.40.0/tools/build/CMake/docs/build/html/index.html


All are of course welcome to clone that repository and push commits, you can make merge requests here or on gitorious.
