Hi there, it's not as easy as I thought it would be. I copied the guid files in the appropriate folders in my boost/ directory. And then I tried:

bjam -sTOOLS=vc-7_1 --with-guid

I also know little about bjam, but your line looks like you are using version 1 of bjam and the guid library only has scripts to be build with version 2 of bjam. Check with bjam --version I belive. For myself, if I want to just build the guid library, then I use: %BOOST_ROOT%\libs\guid\build\bjam

But that doesn't work. So, how do I do that? I really have no clue about bjam, etc.

Thanks in advance, Christian

Hope this helps. Andy.
