Thanks for this patch. I applied it, and then started testing, and found
that the way configure.ac was coded, it just wasn't flexible enough for
the seeming multitude of Boost build possibilities.
So I threw --with-boost away, and reworked Boost support in configure.ac
according to the following requirements:
- let the user enable/disable Boost support from configure
- default to disabled
- if enabled, and not available, error
- let user specify include path, and lib path, separately,
since some Boost installations have an additional
"boost-1.34.1" style directory in them
- default to using no path overrides, assuming everything
that is needed is in default distro locations
- let user specify the name of the serialization library, since
the name of the library can change whether you're building
from source or not
- default to searching for boost_serialization or
boost_serialization-mt, and error if not found
Therefore, the new configure switches are:
--enable-boost Handles enable/disable
--with-boost-include=path Override the include path
--with-boost-lib=path Override the lib path
--with-boost-serialization=name Override the name of serialization
library to link with
Ideally, in most cases, all you need is "--enable-boost".
Please let me know if this still works for the library names on your system.
Thanks,
- Chris
