cross compiling boost libraries with arm-poky-linux-g++

Question

Im trying to build boost with arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-g++ but I'm unable to find out a way to install it perfectly can anyone help in providing the step by step guide for resolving this problem

I want to build it using the following configuration:

** arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-g++  -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon  -mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a9 --sysroot=/opt/hon-fsl-better-fb/4.9.11-1.0.0/sysroots/cortexa9hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi **

I have followed these steps to build: cross compile Boost 1.57.0 on ubuntu for arm

These are the errors

project-config.jam:12: Unescaped special character in argument arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-g++; project-config.jam:13: syntax error at keyword } /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/tools/gcc.jam:203: in gcc.init from module gcc error: toolset gcc initialization: error: version 'arm' requested but 'g++-arm' not found and version '5.4.0' of default 'g++' does not match error: initialized from /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/build/toolset.jam:44: in toolset.using from module toolset /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/build-system.jam:543: in process-explicit-toolset-requests from module build-system /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/build-system.jam:610: in load from module build-system /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/kernel/modules.jam:295: in import from module modules /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/kernel/bootstrap.jam:139: in boost-build from module /home/ubuntu/boost_1_68_0/boost-build.jam:17: in module scope from module

Ok its not arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-g++ it is arm-fslc-linux-gnueabi-g++ and user-config.jam is missing,that i have added and executed but further these errors are occuring. there are lot of recursive errors like this.

Any help is appreciated,Thanks

You're trying to compile using a Yocto generated SDK, right? Did you source the environment-setup script? — danrodlor, May 16 '19 at 06:30
What command did you run? These are errors from what command? How did you configured the boost build? Please show how can others reproduce the same error. — KamilCuk, May 16 '19 at 06:40
@arunkumar, could you post the result of executing `printenv` on the same shell you're trying to compile bison with? Just to check the state of the environment variables exactly before the compilation. — danrodlor, May 16 '19 at 07:02
@Kamil Cuk i have edited the question again once go through it — arun kumar, May 16 '19 at 09:49
@arunkumar, could you also add the content of the user-config.jam file? — danrodlor, May 16 '19 at 09:52
@danlor only one line i.e, using gcc : arm : arm-fslc-linux-gnueabi-g++ — arun kumar, May 16 '19 at 10:28
