1) Download Boost (current minimal version is derived from 1.55.0)
2) Extract
3) Edit Boost files to uncomment unnessary includes (search for GMX in minimal version and copy all changes)
+ Alternative make a patch by diffing against unmodified version and applying patch. Such as
+ diff /path/to/boost_1_55_0 . -rwu |grep -v ^"Only in" > patch && patch -p? < patch
4) Make sure our subset works even with compilers not listed
among the boost ones (in particular, Fujistu in native mode):
- Edit config/select_compiler_config.hpp to add the fallback
to a generic compiler capability file at the end.
- Add the generic compiler capability file config/compiler/generic.hpp
-5) run bcp with required files (currently exception/all.hpp, scoped_ptr.hpp)
+5) run bcp with required files (currently boost/exception/all.hpp boost/scoped_ptr.hpp)
6) delete source files which are not required. Currently:
- - libs/smart_ptr/src/sp_collector.cpp
- - libs/smart_ptr/src/sp_debug_hooks.cpp
- Make sure that they are really not needed.If any source files are added make sure to add them to cmake.
