Introduction

This is a part of Boost libraries converted to be used with Marmalade SDK. The libraries were converted in a straitforward way by creating mkf files with the list of all boost libraries sources. The list of modifications to Boost source code was minimal and listed below in this file.

This package was created by applying this sequence of commands:

1. bcp smart_ptr regex format conversion signal system
2. boost_convert_tests.py
3. Apply manual corrections

Thus the package includes the full version of the listed libraries and their dependancies:

• smart_ptr
• regex
• format
• conversion
• signal
• system

This package is based on boost 1.49.0 release

How to use it

To start using boost libraries in your project please follow the steps:

1. Download the sources of the package
2. Create boost folder under root folder of your project
3. Move the downloaded sources to the recently created boost folder
4. Add subproject boost command to your project mkb file

List of manual corrections to boost libraries

• boost/detail/lightweight_thread.hpp - declare lw_thread_routine as static
• libs/regex/src/posix_api.cpp - avoid code paths when sprintf_s is used
• libs/regex/src/wide_posix_api.cpp - avoid code paths when wcscpy_s is used

Known limitations

• lexical_cast is not supported because swprintf function is not implemented for ARM builds in SDK 6.0
