Boost.Build

vc7-stlport toolset

Introduction

Boost.Build's vc7-stlport toolset supports the Microsoft Visual C++ .NET command-line tools, using the STLport standard library implementation on Microsoft Windows. It is designed to allow you to build and test with multiple installed versions of STLPort, so that objects build in each configuration will be built into separate directories.

In addition to what this toolset provides, configuration and extended functionality is available through the common stlport library support.

Toolset-Specific Features

The following vc7 -stlport-specific features can be used in target build requirements or in the BUILD variable:
Feature Values Default Semantics
native-wchar_t off on off Controls whether wchar_t is an intrinsic type or not.  This is off by default since that's the way STLPort builds itself.  Turning this on may result in unresolved externals from STLPort, unless you rebuild STLPort with /Zc:wchar_t.
