Boost Configuration Generator
1.6
Description
The Boost Configuration Generator utility will create a set of substitute
header files for the boost libraries to ensure that QAC++ analyses via the
standard C++ route through the libraries. The GUI utility (BoostConfigGen.exe)
provides an interface for the parameters as listed in the below table.
On successfully completion of the configuration generator, the utility
will alert the user for any need to add include paths to either the
-
analyzer personality associated with the project
-
or for makefile integration to add the output location as the
first include path in your make’s CPPFLAGS or equivalent include variable.
In the event that the original boost include path was specified in the
compiler personality, this will not be necessary. If the original boost include
path was not present in the compiler personality file then it is assumed that
it is present in the analyzer personality. The user will need to add the new
configuration include directory to the personality above the original boost
include path (using both –I and –q). Please see the log output in the configuration
generator window for details.
The resulting analyzer personality would contain something like:
-i “<output path as specified to
generator>”
-q “<output path as specified to generator>”
-i “C:\boost_1_40_0\”
-q “C:\boost_1_40_0\”
If you discover that there are still Level 9 Syntax errors encountered
during your analysis when using a personality file generated by this utility,
please make a note of the error and your compiler and notify support@programmingresearch.com.
The Boost Configuration Generator is typically run in GUI mode rather
than as a command line tool.
However the command line tool (FrwdHdr.exe) can be run with the
following arguments:
Command line options
|
<current_compiler_personality> |
Mandatory |
Specifies the path to the
compiler personality being used to analyse project. |
|
<original_header_location> |
Mandatory |
Specifies the path to the installation
directory of the boost headers including the “boost” sub folder ie: |
|
<configuration_output_location> |
Mandatory |
Specifies the path to the
directory where the substitute headers will be created ie |

Version 1.6 Version 1.5 Version 1.4 Version 1.3 Version 1.2 Version 1.1 Version 1.0 |
Added overload define to resulting
compiler personality edits: BOOST_TYPEOF_NESTED_TYPEDEF_TPL Added defines to avoid
C++0x language constructs within boost headers. Added further support for
the boost/config/platform and boost/config/stdlib directories. Added support
on windows for BOOST_WINDOWS define. Included additional supported
compilers (IBM, Sun Solaris) Added yvals.h
specific substitute header for Windows/VC++ Fixed bug with creation of
directories for “machine/sys/inline.h” and included
further error string in GUI for incorrect options Installer package and
version number display upgrades Further support for
numeric and ublas libraries. Further support for thread
libraries Initial version of the
Boost Configuration Generator. The following libraries may not yet complete
100% successfully: Boost/numeric/ublas |
