This Jamfile works for me: ...
Yep, that worked for me as well. But I'm trying to get Boost.Asio's SSL examples to build for me using MSVC, and of course I shouldn't have to modify its Jamfile: https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/develop/example/cpp03/ssl/Jamfile.v2 My assumption during this whole process is that with a correctly configured MSVC/Boost.Build environment, I can get the Asio SSL examples to compile simply by issuing "b2" from the corresponding directory. I am starting to believe this assumption is false. On Sat, Oct 1, 2016 at 3:00 PM, Steven Watanabe <watanabesj@gmail.com> wrote:
I suspect that the reason is that your lib ssl is not being used.
Yes I am believing that as well!
A lib ssl in user-config.jam is totally separate from a lib ssl in your Jamfile. To access it you'll need to add project user-config ; in user-config.jam and then refer to /user-config//ssl in the Jamfile
This is producing results! I am making forward progress now. But I'm still left wondering how anyone is supposed to build the Asio SSL example on Windows (without having to add a bunch of paths to the b2 invocation every time). Thanks
