The code below is the relevant error (after typing make again). Perhaps I'm missing a dependancy?

evidently my git checkout doesn't have all the files.

What are the files in "boost/1_35/src" ?
They don't seem to be part of the boost library to me.

[loki1950]

That may be because the Boost libs are externals now but i would try the cmake build script first it may catch something but the only thing i seen in the log was a few ffmepg functions that where not found but that's not critical as there's no content that uses it ATM.

Enjoy the Choice

I tried the cmake build too with no luck, but look at this:

The files in boost/1_35/src seem to have a different origin possibly another subversion external?

[JsnMtth]

Two Checks.

1: Copy Files from subversion's boost/1_35 to git's boost/1_35 and build

2:Copy Files from subversion's boost/1_35/src to git's boost/1_35/src and checkout with svn http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/tags/rel ... 35_0/boost into git's boost/1_35 and build

I'll post when complete.

EDIT: Check One and Two both worked.

[loki1950]

That may relate to a bug that was present in the boost lib it was mentioned in that thread i pointed you to earlier so a patch might have been back ported to the older versions in the boost svn repo and IIRC ace123 did make a comment about it in his commit of a make file update.

Enjoy the Choice

[JsnMtth]

best I can tell ... the two ... lets call them "sets" are from the same revision in the same branch, I'll look into it and see if I can confirm that.

The difference is one I checked out using the subversion program, and the other using git-svn (not likely to be officially supported). It seems that git has trouble handling external resources used from subversion. I read a post on kerneltrap about a work around, but it seemed messy to me. Linus has a comment on the workaround but I didn't understand it at all.

I did see a post about compiling on Fedora 11 Alpha, they had boost issues as well, but I thought there config.log said they were using v1.37.

I don't know why I didn't think of this yesterday.

I inferred from integrating.txt that I only needed to checkout http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/tags/rel ... 35_0/boost
but I also needed http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/tags/rel ... python/src

This file describes the integration process for adding new versions of the boost
python integrtion library to the Vega Strike build system.
Assuming that the version of boost works with Vega Strike, very little
developer time should be required.

1.  Create new directory under /boost of $VER, where $Ver has the . replaced with underscore.

2.  Add new dir to svn.   Run propedit svn:externals to point boost to desired release 
    For example,   boost http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/tags/release/Boost_1_35_0/boost
    commit. 

3.  svn copy src dir from last /boost/$VER to new /boost/$VER
    Use remote urls. 


4.  Modify m4scripts/VS_WITH_BOOST.m4
    a)  Modify the help string to show the new version.
    b)  Modify the case to treat the new version as valid
    c)  Copy one of the existing AM_CONDITIONAL lines and modify the
        version number to the version being added.
    d)  Optional:  Once the version is verified as working, modify the
        empty string case to set the version to the version being added.
    e)  Optional:  Delete references to obsolete versions of boost from
        the m4scripts/VS_WITH_BOOST.m4 file and remove the directory
        containing the obsolete version.
        useful commands:  
        
5.  Test new boost sources.
    a)  in vegastrike root directory, run autotools.
        (./bootstrap-sh --with-boost=${DOTTEDVER})
    b)  correct any errors seen in a) and repeat as necessary.
    c)  run make
    d)  correct any errors seen in c) and repeat as necessary.
