CMake on Windows with Cross-Compiled Boost 1.47

Added by Alistair Lowe almost 14 years ago

Hi guys,

I'm in the process of generating a cross-compile of Wt using CMake on windows.

As the cross-compile requires Boost libraries, I've downloaded boost and cross compiled for GCC ARM (linux).

This has generated a folder within the boost root called bin.v2/libs, within here as an example are files such as:

\date_time\build\gcc-arm\release\link-static\target-os-linux\threading-multi\gregorian\date_generators.o

or

\system\build\gcc-arm\release\target-os-linux\threading-multi\libboost_system-gcc-mt-1_47.so.1.47.0

How do I go about making CMake aware of the correct Boost libraries?

Many thanks

Hmm looks like my .as aren't compiling, only half a job strange

This is more a question on cmake than on Wt, I guess.

BR,

Thanks for the advice. This issue I had with boost was caused by it not tolerating paths with spaces and it incorrectly trying to compile a windows thread system vs linux.

I have another question as I'm new to linux in general.

I have cross-compiled hello.wt and placed it onto an emulated distribution of Debian for ARM.

How do I execute this file? I'm assuming it wont instantly say .wt is something that can be ran, what's the correct approach?

Many thanks
