Hi,

I would like to compile the boost libs for the Win32 platform using mingw on Linux. I have the required stuff installed and I know how to do such a cross compilation if I have a 'configure' based project but I do not know how to tell bjam what I am trying to achieve. Any hint?

Please take your question to the Boost.Build list: http://www.boost.org/more/mailing_lists.htm#jamboost You may be able to get away with injecting compiler/linker options into the gcc toolset's command-line using <cxxflags>whatever and <linkflags>whatever in your BUILD variable. If that isn't going to work, you may need to write a new toolset. We'll need more information before we can really tell. Please come over to Jamboost. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
