Using Boost libraries with C6670

Chuck Kelly

Hello,

I am trying to run someone else's C++ code on a C6670 EVM. This code presupposes Boost library support. There is a Texas Instruments wiki entry on this topic but there isn't enough information on the wiki to actually be able to use the Boost library. I downloaded version 1.34.1 of the Boost code as indicated in the wiki. I also used the ti.hpp and user.hpp files the wiki provided. The problem is I am trying to run this using SYS/BIOS. The wiki entry seems to indicate the BOOST_NO_PLATFORM_CONFIG #define can be set and the code will work. The compiler generates an error if BOOST_NO_PLATFORM_CONFIG is defined. It wants you to choose a platform and SYS/BIOS is not a recognized platform. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Chuck,

This thread will be moved from the Keystone Multicore Forum to the Compiler Forum where the authors of the Wiki page are most likely to see it. They may not be available this week, so your best chance for success sooner will be continuing to study the Wiki page and working through the compiler errors.

Regards,
RandyP

For those reading along, the wiki page referred to by the original post is http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Building_and_Running_Boost_Code_with_the_C6000_Compiler

Which features of Boost are you trying to use? Which header files?

No, the wiki article says integration with any platform, BIOS being one example, has not been done.

Integrating Boost and SYS/BIOS is non-trivial. As far as I know, there are no plans to work on this.

Thanks and regards,
