building an inofficial boost library

Hi boosters, I am trying to put John Torjo's wonderful logging library[0] to use. Unfortunately, it's not in boost yet, but I need it now already. How do I build it? Can I build it separately from an existing boost? 0. http://www.torjo.com/code/logging.zip I found that I can unzip the file over boost 1.33 and bjam will automatically build it. However, there are a couple of problems with it, specifically with the generated library files: - the SONAME of the libraries will be 1.33.0. I don't think this is appropriate since the library is not in 1.33.0. I'd rather use an SONAME of 0.0.20050801. How can I tell bjam to use this as an SONAME for just libs/log ? - The filename includes 1.33.0 as well: libboost_log-gcc-mt-1_33_0.so How can I change this to 0_0_22050801 ? - The static libraries include a "s" in the name to indicate they are static: libboost_log-gcc-mt-s-0_0_20050801.a None of the other boost libraries on my Debian system include this 's', and the Debian package build script just does not deal well (I'd like to make a package since I need it on multiple machines). How can I prevent the 's' from being put in there? I appreciate any help! And thanks to John for this nice library! -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:" net@madduck invalid/expired pgp (sub)keys? use subkeys.pgp.net as keyserver! spamtraps: madduck.bogus@madduck.net "zwei monologe, die sich gegenseitig immer und immer wieder störend unterbrechen, nennt man eine diskussion." -- charles tschopp
