#31169: boost needs a new build system --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: adfernandes@… | Owner: adfernandes@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: boost --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by tvb377@…): OK, now I see what you meant with "installer". I thought that boost was giving up b(jam)?(2)? for something even more arcane. I just '''tried''' hard to understand about the multithreading variant but was unable to locate much more than setting CFLAGS depending on the threading=single/multi (but not for OSX, ref ticket #31134). So I do understand the idea of throwing away the bjam stuff. I'd only wish that this would be a boost, not macports-trac ticket and the cmake stuff gets back to boost trunk, but that's something that wouldn't happen before. That's why I myself would be reluctant to develop another build system just for macports. Do you see any chances for integrating your work upstream? If you need any help with testing, let me know. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31169#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
