Great

i look into source... and i try to build it with your readme help
and filesystem/iostream need to be rewrite i think
i see some "bind" redefined... and lot of ixemul thing not available with noixemul

An ixemul build will not be very useful since it can only be used for ixemul commandline apps. Bind errors likely come from macros in socket headers. You likely need some #undefs.

What I have done so far:

Introduced boost/config/platform/morhphos.hpp:
Code:


#define BOOST_PLATFORM "MorphOs"

#ifdef __cplusplus
#include <cstdlib>
#else
#include <stdlib.h>
#endif

#ifndef __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS
#define __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS
#endif

#include <boost/config/detail/posix_features.hpp> // not sure about this

Add the header into boost/config/detail/select_platform_config.hpp:

Code:


...
#elif defined(__morphos__)
// MorphOs (put this before the AmigaOS statement)
#  define BOOST_PLATFORM_CONFIG "boost/config/platform/morphos.hpp"
....

Put user-config.jam in root dir:
Code:


using gcc : power : /gg/bin/ppc-morphos-g++-11 ;

build command:
Code:


./b2 cxxflags="-std=c++17" cflags="-noixemul -D__morphos__" toolset=gcc-power link=static threading=single variant=release optimization=speed 
            --user-config=/home/andre/workspace/other/boost_1_87_0/user-config.jam 
            --build-dir=/tmp/boost-build 
            --prefix=/tmp/boost-install 
            --with-atomic 
            --with-chrono 
            --with-program_options 
            --with-system 
            --with-random 
            --with-test 
            --with-locale 
            --with-filesystem 
            --with-iostreams 
            install

program_options fails: don't know why, because it should do
filesystem fails: missing POSIC filesystem implementation
iostreams fails: did not look inside yet

There is some work to do.
Maybe it is a good idea to share our work in a git repo?

I managed also to include iostreams.
Updated the git repo and uploaded a build to morphos-storage.
For return to the roots everything should be there.

Hey, did you try it?
I updated the git repo and added more submodules and also a Makefile to cross-compile all
and package it.

Yes, that's true.
I add 2 simple examples for filesystem, see: https://github.com/eliot-exdev/boost-morphos/tree/develop/examples_mos

The c++17 example works well, the boost example fails to link (missing symbols when using -noixemul).
So we need to replace those calls.
I will have look into it, this needs more love.

Those symbols are missing:

Code:

But I can find them here (eg. readlink):

Code:


grep -rH "readlink" /gg/
...
grep: /gg/ppc-morphos/lib/libb32/libc.a: binary file matches
grep: /gg/ppc-morphos/lib/libc.a: binary file matches
...
/gg/includestd/unistd.h:int	 readlink __P((const char *, char *, int));

Is there more information about ixemul.library and -noixemul compile flag?

There it is:
Code:


andre@drax:/gg/ppc-morphos/lib$ ar x libc.a
andre@drax:/gg/ppc-morphos/lib$ file readlink.o 
readlink.o: ELF 32-bit MSB relocatable, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped

Why it is not linked?

My gcc call:
/gg/bin/ppc-morphos-g++-11 -o example-filesystem-boost example-filesystem-boost.cpp -Ofast -noixemul -DNDEBUG -D__MORPHOS__ -std=c++17 -I/tmp/boost-1.87.0-morphos-ppc/include -static -L/tmp/boost-1.87.0-morphos-ppc/lib -lboost_filesystem
