What Boost Build system are you using - version 1, or version 2? The patches we have supplied in the Adobe Source Libraries are for BBV2. As I understand the command you are uttering in order to invoke Boost.Build, it would seem you're building with v1. In general, to get gcc to build universal binaries, you add "-arch i386 -arch ppc" to the commandline. There are a dozen ways to skin that cat. Hope that helps...

Will appreciate a clear recipe to build Universal Binary boost libraries for Mac OSX (darwin). Boost is so wonderful, cant say the same for bjam ,,,,,,,

Google'ing only pointed to the adobe patch

I tried the adobe patch. Patched boost_1_33_1/tools/build/v2/tools/ darwin.jam then issued bjam -sarch=fat -sARCH=fat -sTOOLS=darwin stage (then install) did not make universal .dylibs.

I suspect its got something to do with v1 vs v2 bjam or some such, i am just not grokking it.

Will appreciate a ccokbook style recipe (have no particular desire to learn bjam)

thanks bammi AT memento-inc DOT com
