Hello,
Could you please inform if anybody from boost community still working on integrating boost with CMake?
What is current status/plans for this integration?
Thank you.

I think you can learn a lot here: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/CMake My personal mission at present is to work on the presentation of test results. Boost's eventual transition to CMake is extremely important to me, and I'm sure the community would welcome your participation. -- -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com

Oh, I should also mention: my next move will be to merge everything from the boost-cmake branch into the trunk. The changes are small (mostly CMakeLists.txt files), and being able to test the actual trunk with CMake is crucial to making the system useful. Unless the system is showing useful results, I don't think we'll be able to move it forward as we'd like. -- -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
I would like to start contributing to the Boost-CMake integration effort but I would like some help determining where to "jump in". Looking at the list <https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/CMakeTODO> it seems like somethings may be straight forward but others may be more difficult. I would like to ask the community for their opinions on what needs to be completed sooner. Also, I pulled boost from svn using the 1_35_0 cmake branch, was that the correct branch to pull from in order to get the latest CMake/Boost sources?

I pulled the Boost-CMake svn head and started working with it. First thing I tried was building and installing to see how far we get. I got as far as: -- Installing: /tmp/Boost-CMake/include/boost-1_36/boost/xpressive/ xpressive_static.hpp -- Installing: /tmp/Boost-CMake/include/boost-1_36/boost/xpressive/ xpressive_typeof.hpp CMake Error at libs/fusion/cmake_install.cmake:31 (FILE): file INSTALL cannot find file "/Users/Shared/OpenSource/Boost-CMake/libs/fusion/include/boost" to install. Call Stack (most recent call first): libs/cmake_install.cmake:32 (INCLUDE) cmake_install.cmake:37 (INCLUDE) make: *** [install] Error 1 I am trying to walk through all the logic but if someone would like to point me in the right direction that would help out. _________________________________________________________ Mike Jackson mike.jackson@...

Forgot to "make modularize" first.

Is there any more work to be done on this front? I am looking for a
project to work in the immediate future and I think my own CMake
experience may help to finish this up if needed.
Also what else would need to be worked on?

I have updated to the latest Boost-Cmake from the SVN repository and ran CMake to configure my build. I thought there used to be an option for each library as to whether it would be built or not. Has this option been removed or am I just working from the wrong SVN branch? I am working from the "branches/CMake/Release". I was starting to experiment with OS X framework support and I would rather NOT have to build all of boost each time to test out code.

Doug is exceedingly busy at the moment, but from what he told me, only some fraction of the libraries have been modularized, and it would be a big improvement if we could modularize them all. Another thing you could do, for which I'd be happy to give you svn write permission, is merge all the CMake support into the Boost trunk. As I mentioned earlier, it will make a big difference to be able to get test results for something useful, rather than the outdated boost-cmake branch. -- -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
Here is my current thoughts on those:
SVN Merge of CMake support into the Boost trunk - If we are just
talking about merging in the CMakeList.txt and .cmake files then that
shouldn't take more than a half day assuming a few things. I can merge
locally then commit all the CMake files to the Boost trunk. If there
are other files to merge besides these then this will take me longer
as I am not familiar with some portions of Boost.
Finish Modularization of Boost Libraries - I am still walking
through the CMake build system for boost. What I have been able to
ascertain so far is that the "modularization" of the boost libraries
is adding a consistent include directory structure in each sub part of
Boost. I will have to read some of the emails to get some background
on the design goals of this effort to more accurately decide the
length of time required. If the task is basically just copying what is
being done for all the other libraries then the initial modularization
support is straight forward, just tedious.
Am I on the right track for these?
