Sexy title, I know!<\/p>\n
Anyways, I’m developing using Visual Studio 10 (not my choice).\u00a0 I have a project which involves the use of CUDA and Boost. The newest version of CUDA (at the time of this writing) won’t work out of the box with the\u00a0 vs100 compiler that comes with Visual Studio 10.\u00a0 CUDA can use nothing newer than the vs90 compiler.\u00a0 So, I\u00a0 install visual studio 9 and 10 and select v90 as my compiler for my Visual Studio 10 project.<\/p>\n
Yesterday, I needed the Boost C++ libraries and began to install them.<\/p>\n
The Boost installation is pretty good.\u00a0 Its fairly automated which is nice.\u00a0 You essentially call bootstrap and then bjam; they take care of all the configuring and building of the .libs.\u00a0 However,\u00a0 Boost’s scripts see that I have Visual Studio 10 installed and compile everything with the vs100 compiler.\u00a0 This breaks my project in\u00a0 Visual\u00a0\u00a0 Studio (I get all linking errors related to Boost) as I’m in\u00a0 Visual Studio 10, but using the v90 compiler because of CUDA.<\/p>\n
So, I figured out how to override Boost’s configuration to compile with the vn90 compiler instead of the vc100 compiler.\u00a0 Here is how I fixed the problem.<\/p>\n
cd to BOOST_ROOT\r\n boostrap\r\n \"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\\VC\\bin\\vcvars64.bat\" \/\/ This invokes the vc90 environment variable set.\r\n bjam --toolset=msvc-9.0 --build-type=complete architecture=x86 address-model=64 \/\/ Makes Boost!\r\n<\/pre>\nIf you don’t run the 3rd line (vsvars64.bat), you will see tons of “cl” errors when running\u00a0 bjam.\u00a0 Essentially, Boost tries to call the vc90 compiler (cl.exe), but because the environment is hosed, it cant find it and bombs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
