• Boost uses bjam for building the boost libs.

  bjam source is available in boost, hence we first need to build bjam itself:

   

  Code Block
  language bash
  cd $BOOST_ROOT ./bootstrap.sh

  
  

• For python3

  Code Block
  ./bootstrap.sh --with-python=/path/to/python3

  You may need to update $BOOST_ROOT/project-config.jam, with path to executable and path to include files. Note: remember to preserve the spaces, as they are significant. i.e.

  Code Block
  # using python # : # version # : # cmd-or-prefix # : # includes # : # libraries # : # condition # ; using python : 3.5 : python3 : /usr/local/apps/python3/3.5.1-01/include/python3.5m ; # remember to preserve the spaces, as they are significant

  
  

• IF you do not require the ecFlow python api, you can avoid building boost python libs by setting.
