I see no problem with it. Ref to https://boostorg.github.io/build/manual/master/index.html#bbv2.overview.configuration to understand more about those files. > I have already embedded Linux install on my target, so I am not building the > whole system. It just a matter of handling dependencies. If it required for target, Boost libraries can be included in SDK. Another option - drop Boost and replace it with something more lightweight. If it's not possible, then go ahead with cross-compiling and static linking. > I may need to build an application (cross-compile) and move it to the target > (maybe with some library, is it will be difficult to link statically) > > Thanks, > Leonid > ________________________________ > From: Sergei Nikulov <sergey.niku...@gmail.com> > Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2020 7:28 AM > To: Leonid Meyerovich <lmeyerov...@i-a-i.com> > Cc: boost-users@lists.boost.org <boost-users@lists.boost.org> > Subject: Re: [Boost-users] boost build from source code > > On Tue, May 19, 2020 at 11:02 PM Leonid Meyerovich > <lmeyerov...@i-a-i.com> wrote: > > > > You are right, I do have arm cross-compiler installed. > > But I though that 'b2' executable is a part of the package that I > > downloaded from BOOST site and this executable is built for x86 machine. > > Running 'bootstrap.sh' copy this file to boost_root folder, am I wrong? > > > > Thanks, > > ________________________________ > > No. You've downloaded the source code package. > > So have following options > 1.
