Boost Build Development Plan

+ +
    +
  • + Milestone 2 (October 25, 2002) +

    Boost buildable with gcc and also usable as part of another + project.

    • + +
  • Milestone 3 (April 24, 2003)

    Two gcc versions and two + other compilers are supported. Some other tools (e.g. lex and BoostBook) + are implemented.

    • + +
  • Milestone 4 (TBD)

    Complete testing framework for Boost. +

    • + +
  • Alpha (TBD)

    Optimization. Using buildable tools: + consider using bison, which is itself build with Boost.Build.

    • + +
  • Beta (TBD)

    Feature-complete milestone.

    • + +
  • 2.0 Release (TBD)

    Bugfixes

  • msvc (various version), on NT and Cygwin. +
  • borland, on NT and Cygwin. +
+ +

Libraries

+ +

Some important libraries have special support in Boost.Build: + +

    +
  • STLPort — on gcc. +
  • QT, including the moc and uic tools — on gcc. +
+ +

Other tools

+ +
    +
  • Parser/lexer generators bison and lex. +

Boost Build System V2

+ +

Synopsis

+ +

Boost.Build is a system for large project software construction, which + is simple to use and powerfull. Boost.Build V2 is an onging project to + rewrite Boost.Build, improving design and making it more extensible. The + distinguishing features are:

+ +
    +
  • Simple and high level target description language. In most cases + name of target and list of sources is enough. +
    • + +
  • Variant builds. You can build with your choice of basic variants + (e.g. debug, release, profile...), toolsets (e.g. gcc and msvc) and + specific properties (e.g. inlining off) from a + single command invocation.
    • + +
  • Portability. ``Feature Normalization'' allows to fine-tune targets + independently from the toolset used, and modular toolset descriptions + are employed to generate actual build instructions. +
    • + +
  • Multi-project builds. Several projects can be combined and + built together, with dependencies correctly tracked. Typically, the + setting (like include paths and defines) needed to use other project will + be handled automatically. + + +
  • Extensibility. New file types and tools can be easily added
    • + +
+ +

Documentation

+ +

The user manual, which includes installation instructions, tuturial and + initial reference is available here. + +

Status

+

+ Enough of the core functionality is implemented to allow practical use on + medium-size projects. Several compilers and tools are supported, the + full list is available here. + The list of features still to be implemented + is outlined in the develepment + plan. + +

Dowloading

+ +

The most up-to-date sources are available in tools/build directory + of Boost CVS. Please use "Boost CVS Repository" section in the + download instructions. + +

Boost.Build releases are also available from + SourceForce download page. + +

The installation is described in user manual. + +

Feedback

+ +

Should you have any questions or comments, we'd be glad to hear them. + Post everything to the jamboost mailing list. + +

If you'd like to help with development, there's a separate + guidelines document. + +

Boost Build Development Plan

+ +
    +
  • + Milestone 2 (October 25, 2002) +

    Boost buildable with gcc and also usable as part of another + project.

    • + +
  • Milestone 3 (April 24, 2003)

    Two gcc versions and two + other compilers are supported. Some other tools (e.g. lex and BoostBook) + are implemented.

    • + +
  • Milestone 4 (TBD)

    Complete testing framework for Boost. +

    • + +
  • Alpha (TBD)

    Optimization. Using buildable tools: + consider using bison, which is itself build with Boost.Build.

    • + +
  • Beta (TBD)

    Feature-complete milestone.

    • + +
  • 2.0 Release (TBD)

    Bugfixes

Boost Build System V2 — supported tools

+ +

Compilers

+ +

The following compilers pass Boost.Build tests: +

    +
  • gcc (various versions), on Linux, NT, and Cygwin. +
  • msvc (various version), on NT and Cygwin. +
  • borland, on NT and Cygwin. +
+ +

Libraries

+ +

Some important libraries have special support in Boost.Build: + +

    +
  • STLPort — on gcc. +
  • QT, including the moc and uic tools — on gcc. +
+ +

Other tools

+ +
    +
  • Parser/lexer generators bison and lex. +
  • XSLT processor xsltproc. +
  • The Apache FOP tool. +
  • BoostBook documentation format. +

Boost Build System V2

+ +

Synopsis

+ +

Boost.Build is a system for large project software construction, which + is simple to use and powerfull. Boost.Build V2 is an onging project to + rewrite Boost.Build, improving design and making it more extensible. The + distinguishing features are:

+ +
    +
  • Simple and high level target description language. In most cases + name of target and list of sources is enough. +
    • + +
  • Variant builds. You can build with your choice of basic variants + (e.g. debug, release, profile...), toolsets (e.g. gcc and msvc) and + specific properties (e.g. inlining off) from a + single command invocation.
    • + +
  • Portability. ``Feature Normalization'' allows to fine-tune targets + independently from the toolset used, and modular toolset descriptions + are employed to generate actual build instructions. +
    • + +
  • Multi-project builds. Several projects can be combined and + built together, with dependencies correctly tracked. Typically, the + setting (like include paths and defines) needed to use other project will + be handled automatically. + + +
  • Extensibility. New file types and tools can be easily added
    • + +
+ +

Documentation

+ +

The user manual, which includes installation instructions, tuturial and + initial reference is available here. + +

Status

+

+ Enough of the core functionality is implemented to allow practical use on + medium-size projects. Several compilers and tools are supported, the + full list is available here. + The list of features still to be implemented + is outlined in the develepment + plan. + +

Dowloading

+ +

The most up-to-date sources are available in tools/build directory + of Boost CVS. Please use "Boost CVS Repository" section in the + download instructions. + +

Boost.Build releases are also available from + SourceForce download page. + +

The installation is described in user manual. + +

Feedback

+ +

Should you have any questions or comments, we'd be glad to hear them. + Post everything to the jamboost mailing list. + +

If you'd like to help with development, there's a separate + guidelines document. + +
