i know AerialX has been able to compile some of the boost libs for wii and that he used a tutorial aimed to compiling boost for ds

If anyone could help me that would be great. Right now I've just downloaded the hpp files and copied them to my libogc/include folder, but pretty soon I'm going to want to compile it.

Is it possible to get threading support through Boost? The application I'm trying to port (Gnash) uses Boost and it's threading.

Unfortunately, boost::thread is a compiled library, not header only. Boost also uses "bjam" compatible with Perforce Jam (kinda like make, or ant) so I would have no idea on how to even compile boost::thread targeted for the gekko.

Your best bet (in my opinion) would be to read up on the threading implementation that is within libogc.

Having a look into this myself. Will report back with instructions if I get anywhere. Hopefully the info here makes it straight forward enough.

Could somebody take me step by step on how to do this? I don't understand how to cross-compile very well.

hrmm.. utility is a file included with the C++ standard library and should be on your computer

// Test file to see if I have 

#include 
#include         // this says utility

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
     std::cout << "test\n";
     return 1;
}

And it works

Thanks MtPeanut - that solved the first warning in the output - about utility.hpp - which I thought might have something to do with all the other errors.

Unfortunately not, I'm still getting tons of "error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'boost'" from most of the boost hpp files.

In boost/config/select_stdlib_config.hpp

comment out #include boost/config/no_tr1/utility.hpp

and try #define'ing BOOST_STDLIB_CONFIG "boost/config/stdlib/libstdcpp3.hpp"

Re: Boost Libraries

musicinstinct — Sat, 16 May 2009 12:55:20 +0200

In this file (part of Boost):

boost/config/no_tr1/utility.hpp

There is this include:

#ifndef BOOST_CONFIG_UTILITY
#  define BOOST_CONFIG_UTILITY

#  ifndef BOOST_TR1_NO_RECURSION
#     define BOOST_TR1_NO_RECURSION
#     define BOOST_CONFIG_NO_UTILITY_RECURSION
#  endif

#  include <utility>

#  ifdef BOOST_CONFIG_NO_UTILITY_RECURSION
#     undef BOOST_TR1_NO_RECURSION
#     undef BOOST_CONFIG_NO_UTILITY_RECURSION
#  endif

#endif

Which causes this error:

... devkitpro/libogc/include/boost/config/no_tr1/utility.hpp:21:21: warning: utility: No such file or directory

Anyone help find the missing include file?

I know i accidentally included boost in .C files. I was absolutely clueless what the error messages meant.
Not everything may work but i do know shared_ptr works and i assume many other libs work.

Re: Boost Libraries

MrPeanut — Thu, 14 May 2009 21:47:57 +0200

What's the rest of the output when you try to compile that example? And what's the exact command that runs to create that output.

I have limited experience with this as I was working on an aleph one port for the psp which used the boost library (headers only) I got it to compile fine but someone else was working on their version simultaneously and released his first lol.

Has anyone managed to use the Boost libraries with devkitPPC? [www.boost.org]

I would have thought at least the "header only" parts should just work straight out of the box, but I get lots of errors like this:

error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'boost'

That error is repeated many times over, when attempting to compile even the simplest of example progs using one of the header only parts of the library. Eg, this simple example:

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

int main()
{
    using namespace boost::lambda;
    typedef std::istream_iterator in;

    std::for_each(
        in(std::cin), in(), std::cout << (_1 * 3) << " " );
}
