R'''Build Boost.
This script builds the Boost libraries. It's main utility is setting the
correct --stagedir parameter value to avoid name clashes.
Usage example:
$ python -m project.boost.build -- boost_1_71_0/ --with-filesystem --with-program_options
...
Consult the output of `python -m project.boost.build --help` for more details.
By default, only builds:
* for the current platform,
* Debug & Release configurations,
* static libraries,
* statically linked to the runtime.
'''
# The way Boost names library files by default is insane. It's absolutely not compatible between
# OSs, compilers, Boost versions, etc. On Linux, for example, it would create
# stage/lib/libboost_filesystem.a, while on Windows it would become something insane like
# stage\lib\libboost_filesystem-vc142-mt-s-x64-1_72.lib. More than that, older Boost versions
# wouldn't include architecture information (the "x64" part) in the file name, so you couldn't
# store libraries for both x86 and x64 in the same directory. On Linux, on the other hand, you
# can't even store debug/release binaries in the same directory. What's worse is that older CMake
# versions don't support the architecture suffix, choking on the Windows example above.
#
# With all of that in mind, I decided to bring some uniformity by sacrificing some flexibility.
# b2 is called with --layout=system, and libraries are put to stage/<platform>/<configuration>/lib,
# where <platform> is x86/x64 and <configuration> is CMake's CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE. That means that I
# can't have libraries with different runtime-link values in the same directory, but I don't really
# care.
