Boost C++ 库安装

Question

I am not familiar with the usual build technique in linux I am using boost c++ library. Can any body guide me in installing and configuring boost c++ library. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

My environment is Linux Fedora 15. On it, one can easily install boost by typing,

$ yum install boost-devel

After installation, you'll find boost under /usr/include/boost/ .

However, if you run,

$yum install boost

you'll only find .so of boost under /usr/lib/ , like /usr/lib/libboost_timer.so.1.48.0 .

Answer 2

It's OK if you're not familiar with the usual build technique because Boost doesn't use the usual build technique. Follow the instructions in the "getting started" documentation . Make sure you read all the way to the bottom of the page. The link to the Unix-specific instructions is at the very, very bottom.

For most parts of Boost, installation is synonymous with unpacking the tarball into your preferred include directory. Other parts of Boost require compilation, so go to the Boost installation directory, run ./bootstrap.sh , and then run ./bjam install .

Answer 3

根据您使用的 Linux 发行版，您可能会发现 boost 已经为您构建和打包，例如在 Fedora 上“yum install boost”

Answer 4

Rob Kennedy 的回答仍然有效，只是现在建议使用 ./b2 而不是 ./bjam 进行安装。
