Folks,
did anybody had success building Boost for Windows Phone using Visual Studio 2015 (aka 14.0)? We have Boost.Build code to do so, but it tries to find vcvarsphoneall.bat script, and some other similarly named scripts, that I don't seem to have anywhere, despite been able to build WP app from the IDE.
Okay, so the current summary is that: - I have C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\vcvarsphoneall.bat - It attempts to invoke "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\bin\x86_arm\vcvarsphonex86_arm.bat" and naturally fails, due to double "bin\bin". - If I correct the above, by replacing %~dp0bin with %~dp0 in the script, vcvarsphonex86_arm.bat tries to run VCVarsPhoneQueryRegistry.bat, but instead of using VS140COMNTOOLS it again uses %~dp0bin, arrives at the wrong path, and fails. - If I fix that, the script: - Sets LIB directory to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Phone Kits\8.0\lib\ARM - even though I have 8.1 too. - Fails to set PATH directory to anything containing a compiler. I am therefore declaring that either I have some installation problem, or VS 2015 broke command-line builds, and in either case somebody more competent should take a look before we can support building Boost for Windows Phone. - Volodya
