Perhaps this is a boost.build question, so I cross posted to boost.build. Anyway...
I still get the spawn errors with MinGW. I investigated a bit more. I tried bjam on libs/function/test. Using Boost build V1:
bjam -sTOOLS=mingw test
everything works fine. Now, I switch to V2:
bjam --v2 gcc
Then I get the spawn: No such file or directory error. With the -d+2 option, I get:
gcc.archive ..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\build\gcc-3.2\debug\link-static\boost_test _exec_monitor-gcc3.2-d_1.32.0.a
del /f "..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\build\gcc-3.2\debug\link-static\boost_tes t_exec_monitor-gcc3.2-d_1.32.0.a"
Is 'del' in PATH? Can you invoke it from the command line?
Yes, yes.
ar ruc "..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\build\gcc-3.2\debug\link-static\boost_test _exec_monitor-gcc3.2-d_1.32.0.a"
Is 'ar' in PATH? Can you invoke it from the command line?
Yes and yes. Those are the first things I tested. Anyway, I did some more investigation. Here's what I found out:
If I invoke "ar ruc..." manually, and build again. Everything's fine
and the build is completed in full. At first, I thought it was del \f
that's the problem because if I call it manually, I get "file not found"
(since it's not present at the first invocation). Then I realized it's
not the problem because when I put a copy of
boost_test_exec_monitor-gcc3.2-d_1.32.0.a, and do a full build again with the -a option, I get the spawn error again. I did notice however
that when I "touch" the boost_test_exec_monitor-gcc3.2-d_1.32.0.a
by opening it and saving it, the build again runs completely without
a problem.
I hope these clues will be of help. I am not sure what's happening here so pardon me if these are dumb remarks.
