Scripts to build boost for different platforms (macOS, iOS, tvOS, watchOS, Linux, Android) and package it as a Maven tarball and/or an Apple Framework.

Libraries are packaged in Twilio style, grouped by variant (debug/release) and then by platform architecture beneath the variant. This makes debug/x86, debug/armv7 etc folders that are consumable by Twilio builds.

Unpacking these tarballs into a single directory will create all necessary libraries underneath the abovementioned folders together with a top-level includes/boost directory for headers.

To build packages use ./boost.sh with appropriate argument -android, -ios, -osx, -linux or -linux-cxx11-abi-disabled. If not specified, it will attempt to build all. It requires Maven to be installed for deployment - if you do not deploy to Maven-based repositories you can ignore it.

To find the directories from cmake specify two cmake defines, e.g.:

cmake -DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR=toplevel/include -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR=toplevel/lib/release/armv7

To put all consumed libraries into single directory so that cmake could find them use this maven plugin invocation:

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>initialize</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>run</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
                <tasks>
                    <!-- todo copy beast to boost headers... -->
                    <copy todir="${project.build.directory}/dependency/${build.platform}/boost-headers-${dependencies.boost.version}">
                        <fileset dir="${project.build.directory}/dependency/${build.platform}/beast-headers-${dependencies.websockets.version}"/>
                    </copy>
                    <!-- flatten all libraries to boost/lib so that CMake can find it -->
                    <copy todir="${project.build.directory}/dependency/${build.platform}/boost">
                        <fileset dir="${project.build.directory}/dependency/${build.platform}/boost-system-${dependencies.boost.version}"/>
                    </copy>
                </tasks>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>
