I've been trying to build boost-1_31_0 on Mac OSX (10.3.5). I first
tried with the default compiler, and then I installed XCode 1.5 to get
gcc build 1666, which seems to be what is listed on the main site.
After all this, the problem I get is:
c++ unrecognized option `-shared'
As near as I can tell, it builds everything except for the shared
libraries. I would really prefer to use the shared libraries, though if
I can get my program to compile against the static it probably would be
okay.
Does anywone know of a workaround? I read something online that said
"try using -G instead of -shared", but that just gave me -G as an
unrecognized option.
I'm trying to build CVS right now, but I don't know how stable/etc it
is. I would much rather use a release, because if I download it later, I
know it will still be the same code.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
John
