We're working on branches/release, so hack that, if anything.
Again, for this you don't need to git anything from me.

My patches against 1.39 are not in svn.  If we do a 1.39.1 release you 
won't need to 'git' them.  The diffs are on the webserver,  look here:


http://sodium.resophonic.com/git/boost_patches/?h=cmake-patches%2FBoost_1_39_0

And you'll see the four commits, which you can apply to your unpacked 
distribution.  There are also tarball/zipfile download links in there.


I've been keeping git notes, I'll see about putting up some more 
detailed 'how to git boost' docs.  Apologies that this has been 
unproductive so far.

x86 Mac binaries (which should work on Tiger and above) are available here:

  http://www.osl.iu.edu/~dgregor/Boost-1.40.0-Darwin.dmg

It's one big, 38MB installer.

By flipping a switch in the CMake configuration, we can create a
smaller installer that downloads only the selected components
on-the-fly. However, I haven't figured out where to permanently host
the downloaded package files.

Also, for the real installer, we might want to build
PowerPC/x86/x86_64 fat binaries, since that's the "right" way to
distribute libraries on the Mac.

Yeah.   If you are e.g. hacking on an executable 'myprog' which links to 
 libraries lib1..libn, 'make myprog/fast' will skip checking whether 
lib1..libn need rebuilding start from myprog's object files.  In certain 
cases this can be a tremendous convenience.

I just figured that out by looking at the Makefile. It is much cleaner

In the CTest script, set the variable CTEST_NOTES_FILES to contain the
path to a file configured with whatever information you want.  It will
show up on the submission line in CDash as a notes link.

I plan to discuss revision reporting with the CDash developers at some
point.  The CTest "nightly start time" model was developed with CVS
revision control where the only way to get a global version without
a tag is to use a date/time value.  For modern version control tools
other models are possible, most of which will include a global revision
number or identifier as part of the Update.xml submission.

Do you, or anybody else, have an installer I can play with? It does not

Windows and Mac will give us the biggest "bang", I think. Building
binaries for Linux is better left to the distribution maintainers, and
with Windows and Mac we get the graphical, component-based installers

FWIW, Bill Hoffman did a nice presentation at BoostCon looking at
CMake and how it might work for Boost. Brad King of Kitware was also
there, and helped flesh out a lot of technical details. We had a
breakout meeting looking at what needs to be done next. Troy and Doug
remain the leads on the Boost side, but others are starting to get
involved with various aspects. There was a hands on session Friday so
Boosters could kick the tires.

I'm going to experiment with pre-built binary installers, with an eye
to supplying them for the 1.40.0 release.

Is it possible to have the results broken down by library like the 
traditional Boost dashboard is?  That would make sorting through the 
results much easier.

[Boost-cmake] CDash dashboard now available

[Doug Gregor]

I have created a CDash dashboard for Boost, kindly hosted by Kitware.
The dashboard is here:

  http://www.cdash.org/CDashPublic/index.php?project=Boost

The CMake build system on the Boost release branch is now configured
to build and test with CTest, then submit to this dashboard. If you
configure a Boost build tree with CMake, you can then build the
"Experimental" target to (e.g., via "make Experimental") to build+test
and submit those results to the dashboard.

This is a work in progress; we'll be working to make submission easier
(e.g., via CTest scripts), get more testing working, and make use of
some of the newer, cooler features of CDash that can help Boost... but
we could certainly use more help!
