[External]Re: [odb-users] New distribution pkgs for ODB

[Tenneti, Rohith]

How would one specify a prefix in the build2.config options when cross compiling for another target so that the build/compile is able to locate the headers and libs for the cross compile of libodb and libodb-sqlite?

Thanks,
Rohith

The recommended way to build ODB from source is described here:

If you would like to build libodb and libodb-sqlite with -std=c++17 (by default they are built with the latest available standard supported by the compiler that you are using), you can add config.cxx.std=17 to the `bpkg create` command on the "Building ODB Runtime Libraries" step in the above instructions.

Let me know if you run into any issues.
