#1410: add boost external library to ET --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: eschnett Type: enhancement | Status: review Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Carpet | Version: development version Resolution: | Keywords: Boost --------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Comment (by rhaas):
In that case: how about including only donwload instructions in the ET thornlist so that users can uncomment them when Boost is needed. ie:
{{{ # Boost library !TARGET = $ARR !TYPE = git !AUTH_URL = git@github.com:dradice/Boost.git !URL = git://github.com/dradice/Boost.git !REPO_PATH = ../$2 !CHECKOUT = #ExternalLibraries/Boost }}}
It does take a while to compile. For some reason it also does not pick up a -j option which I think the other ExternalLibraries see (or do they?).
