Not clear how to pass array to --boost-libs or --ios-archs

[kyzmitch]

From the docs it should be the following format and it doesn't work for me:

--ios-archs "(archs, ...)"
--boost-libs "{all|none|(lib, ...)}"

I was able to pass parameters only with following format --ios-archs:

--ios-archs "armv7 arm64"

and the same format didn't work for --boost-libs parameter. Single arguments worked fine:

--boost-libs thread

Space-separated list of libs works fine too, see an example at https://github.com/kambala-decapitator/vcmi-ios-depends/blob/main/deps/boost.sh

thanks for reply, for some reason following command doesn't work and it prints help:

./boost.sh --min-ios-version 10.0 -ios --boost-version 1.80.0 --boost-libs ‘system date_time thread’ --no-framework --no-thinning --universal --ios-archs "arm64 armv7"

it prints also Unknown argument date_time, maybe because it only contains headers. After removing date_time it prints another error: Unknown argument thread’ so, maybe quote symbol is wrong

following format works for me, just would be good to update help command to provide actual examples if it is possible, I could add it to my PR which is about different thing actually https://github.com/faithfracture/Apple-Boost-BuildScript/pull/78

./boost.sh --min-ios-version 10.0 -ios --boost-version 1.80.0 --boost-libs 'system date_time thread' --no-framework --no-thinning --universal --ios-archs "arm64 armv7"

maybe quote symbol is wrong

It definitely is :) compare your ‘ to the standard '

You can also escape spaces with backslash instead of using quotes:

--boost-libs lib1\ lib2

Thanks for the feedback @kyzmitch , I've added examples for --boost-libs and --ios-archs to the script's help 👍🏻
