boost ptr_container library isn't installed after compilation from source

问题

I have updated boost library from previous 1.54 (svn source) to 1.57 (git source). Although I used the same ./b2 params, destination directory doesn't contain ptr_container library.

Directory with cloned repository correctly contains ptr_container library on this path:

boost_git/libs/ptr_container

I'm building it with following command:

   ./b2 --install --prefix=$SHL_PATH/boost -sNO_BZIP2=1 -sNO_ZLIB runtime-link=shared link=shared -j2 install

but without success.

Edit:

It seems that problem occurs only when building from git. When I downloaded zip package from boost site, destination directory correctly contains ptr_container.

This is a git commands I'm using to get source code:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/boostorg/boost.git boost_git
git checkout tags/boost-1.57.0
git submodule foreach --recursive git checkout tags/boost-1.57.0

I also tried to get latest boost version, but this version isn't usable at all. Directly after I executed ./b2, I'm getting weird error similar to this one: Buidling boost error: Name clash for '<pstage\lib>boost_system-vc120-mt-1_58.dll'

I will be grateful for any hints how to correctly get&install boost from git repository.

回答1:

git clone https://github.com/boostorg/boost.git
cd boost
git checkout boost-1.57.0
git submodule update --init --recursive
./bootstrap.sh
sudo ./b2 install
sudo ./b2 headers

As pointed out by rivanov in the comments, ./b2 headers does the trick to include the header-only files in the installation dir.
