borland link error

Hi,

I just installed borland 5.8.2. First of all BB was not able
to figure it's 
location out automatically. I had to add following line into
user-config

using borland : 5.8.2 :
C:\Compilers\Borland\BDS\4.0\Bin\bcc32.exe ;

Now it fails to link my unit tests:

borland.link

Did BB missed iostream library?

I don't know about any compiler where 'iostream library' has
to
be explicitly linked to. Maybe, you've misinstalled borland,
or it's
somehow functionally limited version? What's content of .rsp
file?
What happens if you run the same command on command
manually?
Does the error goes away if you remove some of the options,
in particular those:

        -tWD -tWC -tWR -tWC -WM-

My guess is that this compiler has only some flavours of
standard library.

Sun CC for example

It's regular Turbo C++ installation

Nope.

Ok. How do I make it use it?

Can you elaborate? I don't see anything in sun.jam to that
effect.

I'm afraid I don't know what's "Turbo C++", and if
I understand discussion
on boost-devel correctly, you did not know that Turbo C++
exists until
recently as well. So, I have no idea what's "regular
Turbo C++ installation"
is -- I think we might have to ask Borland experts.

Ok, nothing suspicious there.

Can you:

1. Try building the tools/build/v2/example/hello with
borland,
and see if same error appears.

2. If so, try to build it with all permutations of

	link=static/link=shared
	runtime-link=static/runtime-link=shared
	threading=single/threading=multi

3. If 'hello' does not fail, try building your target with
the same permutations.

4. Try building an .cpp files containing just empty
main by hand.

Again, I don't know. Maybe borland experts will be able to
help.

That one links OK for me here, I have Borland configured
with:

using borland : 5.8.2 : "C:/Program
Files/Borland/BDS/4.0/Bin/bcc32.exe" : 
<cxxflags>-IC:/data/boost/spirit-1.6.3/boost ;
using borland : 5.6.4 :
"C:/cpp/Borland/CBuilder6/Bin/bcc32.exe" : 
<cxxflags>-IC:/data/boost/spirit-1.6.3/boost ;

and algorithms_test builds OK with both 5.6.4 and 5.8.2
Borland compilers.

The tests that are failing for me are token_iterator_test
(compiler error) 
and the prg_exec_fail* tests which fail with unresolved
externals to 
boost::execution_monitor::execute.

HTH, John.

PS if you don't want to mess with the command line to figure
out what the 
problem is, you can always build with Borland's IDE and see
if it build OK 
from there.

Gennadiy,
The Turbo C++ compiler should work without problems even if
you
installed it in a different directory than the default one.
I'd suggest
that you check that the version you have is indeed bcc32
5.8.2, by running

bcc32 -v

Which should output something like:

Borland C++ 5.82 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2005 Borland
Error E2266: No file names given

If it isn't 5.8.2 then you should probably install an update
which
should be found at the CodeGear website. I don't expect this
to be the 
case, though.

Otherwise my user-config.file under toolsbuildv.2 contains
the
following line:

using borland : 5.8.2 :
"C:/Programmi/Borland/BDS/4.0/Bin/bcc32" :
<cxxflags>-ID:/sf/bcbboost/spirit ;

The <cxxflags> part relates to using Spirit 1.6.x so
that
Boost.Serialization works. It isn't needed if you don't care
about the 
serialization test results.

Hope this helps. By the way, tests appear to heve been
running without
problems on Borland compilers at least since my last run.

Cheers,
Nicola

With CC compiler you can specify with iostream lib to use
using -library= 
option

What I meant is that I just downloaded one from net and
installed with 
default parameters

> Can you:

Before we go into further digging, here is another peice of
info I just 
uncovered:

It only failes for targets that link with Boost.Test
statically. All the 
tests that links with dll works fine. That's why regression
tests works - 
they all use dlls.

Here is an example of passed test:

Yes that's the version.

Can you try to do test with statically linked vertion of
Boost.Test UTF?

I used

bjam borland-5.8.2 link=static

and got the only failures are those shown in the attached
logfile.

BTW one wildcard thought: I presume you did install the
static runtime 
libraries when you installed Turbo C++?

HTH, John.
