Compilation with Intel oneAPI: Many warnings

[MarDiehl]

When installing boost with Intel oneAPI using the recommended way (bootstrap), the compiler gives the following warning

These options as listed are not supported.
For more information, use '-qnextgen-diag'.
option list: 
	-ip
	-wd177,780,2196,1782,193,304,981,1418,411,734,279

This is defined here: https://github.com/boostorg/log/blob/6366d73335d298c8c5c7f7bd80f6931fedb0df1b/build/Jamfile.v2#L98

For CMake, this is not an issue because the new, LLVM-based compiler identifies as IntelLLVM, not Intel (https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/CMAKE_LANG_COMPILER_ID.html) and, hence, the options are not added here: https://github.com/boostorg/log/blob/6366d73335d298c8c5c7f7bd80f6931fedb0df1b/CMakeLists.txt#L416

As far as I can see, Boost.Build does not discriminate between the legacy Intel compiler and the newer LLVM-based one - both are identified as intel-linux (on Linux platform). So there is no way I could add these flags for the legacy compiler but not the newer one.

I can see you've already created an issue for b2 to support the new compiler. Until that issue is resolved, there's nothing I can do in Boost.Log.

In the meantime, you can patch your local Boost by removing the compiler options that don't work.

yes, unfortunately the PR at b2 is stuck because there is no test setup for Intel compilers.

As far as I see, the flags specific to boost.log only disable warnings. So my suggestion would be to simply remove them to reverse the behavior: Instead of showing warnings for new compiler versions, show (other) warnings for old compiler versions. Unfortunately, one would still get the warning about -ip which is caused by b2.
