Boost libraries - trimmed down for Citra

This is a subset of Boost v1.64.0 generated using the bcp tool. To get a list of boost modules guaranteed to exist, check the build script.

Updating this repo (on Windows)

To update the Boost version (or to add a new library) follow these steps:

  • Download Boost and extract the package, then launch Powershell and cd to the boost_1_xx_0 directory.

  • Build the bcp tool:

    .\boostrap.bat
    .\b2 tools\bcp
    
  • Store the boost directory in a variable for later use: $boost_dir = $pwd.

  • Add bcp to your path: $env:Path += $boost_dir\bin.v2\tools\bcp\msvc-14.1\release\link-static\threading-multi (The correct output path should be printed by b2 during the build.)

  • cd to this repo's directory (...\externals\boost\)

  • Remove the existing boost from the repo: rm -r boost (This is only necessary if doing a Boost version upgrade, in case they removed any files in the new version.)

  • Run .\build.cmd $boost_dir to build a new trimmed down distro.

  • Add/remove all files in git and commit.
