[question] Best way to pass _GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0/1 using b2?

[uilianries]

Hello, I would like to know if is there a smart way to pass _GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI using b2?

So far, we have been using define=_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=1, but reading boost.org/doc/libs/1_85_0/tools/build/doc/html/index.html I found c++abi option. Not sure if is related, or there is other option to manage it directly without using define.

Regards!

That c++abi feature is only used for the hp_cxx compiler (and I should really have it use something else). The correct feature to use for the GNU ABI is stdlib=gnu11 (https://www.bfgroup.xyz/b2/manual/release/index.html#bbv2.builtin.features.stdlib).
