Hi
it is more a question than a bug not sure how to qualify it. I'm trying to
build boost using pure msvc build chain and llvm (clang-cl), no mingw or
whatever Linux stuff for windows. I've spent two days searching for the answer,
applied numerous command line switches withno result, it still fails for
exception generating code. I've followed the link here
http://lists.boost.org/boost-build/2013/10/27057.php and still it cannot handle
exception code. I've added /GR- /D _HAS_EXCEPTIONS=0 to the command line in
clang-win.jam but it still does not compile with the same
".\boost/throw_exception.hpp(69,5) : error: cannot compile this throw
expression yet".
so the question, is it possible at all? and I guess I'm not the first one to
ask this question. may we have a tutorial how to build boost on windows?
