  • Boost uses bjam for building the boost libs.
    bjam source is available in boost, hence we first need to build bjam itself:

     

    Code Block
    languagebash
    cd $BOOST_ROOT
./bootstrap.sh

  • For python3

    Code Block
    ./bootstrap.sh --with-python=/path/to/python3

    You may need to update $BOOST_ROOT/project-config.jam, with path to executable and path to include files. Note: remember to preserve the spaces, as they are significant. i.e.
    Code Block
    # using python
#     :  # version
#     :  # cmd-or-prefix
#     :  # includes
#     :  # libraries
#     :  # condition
#     ;
using python : 3.5 : python3 : /usr/local/apps/python3/3.5.1-01/include/python3.5m ;
  • IF you do not require the ecflow python api, you can avoid building boost python libs by setting.

 

Code Block
languagebash
titleDisable boost python, *IF* ecflow python API not required
 export ECF_NO_PYTHON=1

 

before calling $WK/build_scripts/boost_build.sh (see below)
You will also need to disable python when building ecflow.  See the instruction under cmake

 

  • Ecflow uses some of compiled libraries in boost. The following script will build the required lib’s, in both debug and release forms and will configure boost build according to your platform

    Code Block
    languagebash
    titleBuild
the
  • boost libraries used by ecflow
    cd $BOOST_ROOT
$WK/build_scripts/boost_1_53_fix.sh    # fix for boost, only for some platforms
$WK/build_scripts/boost_build.sh       # compile boost libs used by ecFlow

 

Build

There are two build systems available for ecflow:
