I'm working through porting the Boost 1.49 Library with a Makefile project and almost every library is giving a warning when built that swp{b} is deprecated for this architecture.........I haven't gotten to building the library test packages yet as I'm still trying to figure out the best way to redirect the std:ut or just check it while hooked to the simulator........but I was wondering since the __QNXNTO__ switch is defined, should it be giving out this warning?

I am needing Boost and I would be interested in knowing you get it to build work with the NSDK.

We’ve actually pushed a port of Boost out that has this spinlock assembly code fixed for ARMv7 and up.

Please have a look at github and search for our BlackBerry Boost port.

Is RIM going to add Boost the NSDK in the future as a lot of C++ developers use this library?

I dont really want to have to build the library myself when I really want to concentrate on porting and supporting our own code.

Will using the code as is not work due to this spin lock code?
What exactly was done to fix the working libraries/headers (as there are quite a few that are not reported to have been ported)?
