GalaxyBuild Status

base_boost is an ansible-role that installs libraries for GNU C++ compiler tools

Requirements

RHEL-like system, or Ubuntu, or Windows.

Role Variables

  • Corporate feature: toggles desired state compilers_present: present

  • Software collections offer latest versions of programming languages collections_enabled: true

  • approved/test release of software collections' devtoolset cplusplus_devtoolset: devtoolset-7

Most Boost libraries are header-only: they consist entirely of header files containing templates and inline functions, and require no separately-compiled library binaries or special treatment when linking. Yet this role does compile libraries, but you can override that behaviour if you like:

compile_boost: true

The only Boost libraries that must be built separately, and have no extra documentation to compile, are set as default (override them in group_vars or your playbook):

compile_boost_with:
  --with-chrono
  --with-context
  --with-filesystem
  --with-graph_parallel
  --with-iostreams
  --with-locale
  --with-program_options
  --with-regex
  --with-serialization
  --with-signals
  --with-system
  --with-thread
  --with-timer
  --with-wave

# # boost_cflags valuse for windows

/DFOO - define FOO in the preprocessor
/EHsc - catch C++ exceptions, assume extern "C" functions never throw C++ exceptions
/GR - enable RTTI
/MD - make a multithreaded DLL
/MDd - make a debug multithreaded DLL
/O1 - optimize for size
/O2 - optimize for speed
/Ob0 - no auto-inlining
/Ob1 - only inline functions that are marked inline, and C++ member functions defined in a class declaration
/Ob2 - let compiler inline freely
/Od - no optimization
/RTC1 - run-time checking: report when a variable is used without being initialized, and stack frame run-time error checking. See their site for more details.
/W3 - use warning level 3 (out of 4), “production quality”
/Zi - generate “complete debugging information”, like -g for clang/gcc
