Roger, can Cmake be used for boost.context? Especially this library required to know the architecture, ABI, binary format, address model ... in order to select the right assembler?
We have the header and dependency information for boost.context (thread chrono system date_time) and components depending upon boost.context (coroutine, coroutine2, fiber), all extracted from the header autolink information. This information varies for older Boost releases. Whether that's correct, sufficient or functional I'm afraid I don't know because I've not used it myself. How is boost.context normally informed about these details when compiling and linking? If there's additional work we need to do to make this work, I'll be happy to look into it. Regards, Roger
