Re: [Boost-users] Help to BUILD AND INSTALL Boost Libraries

Ovanes, Thanks for your link, It worked cleancly and now I'm able to access REGEX. Rene, I did try as per your suggestion, but it didn't work , it gives some errors related to lex and bison. Thanks all of you for precious time. Hemal Patel On 6/8/06, Ovanes Markarian wrote:

Why don't you use boost installer? It will download and install all required libs, headers and sources:

You will only need to set correct path to boost libs in VC8.

With Kind Regards,

Hi! Jan,

I tried the one you have suggested, and I get message like , vc80-tools.jam: NO such file or directory.

Yes, I did visit http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html and followed all the insturctions for vcvars32.bat and other tips, but it did not work.

I also tried.. bjam -sTOOLS=msvc --v2

but it does not generate libs in C:\BOOST\.

I wonder, if I'm not executing bjam from right location, I use BOOST ROOT DIRECTORY to execute bjam for complete installation.

For individual library like regex, I 'm able to compile from its source using its make file. but I can not compile library like program_options from its source file as there is no make file available. since regex is dependent of program_options, I'm stuck

pl comment .

Thanks for your time.

Hi

Try bjam "-sTOOLS=vc80" (NB: the zero after the 8), have you looked at the instructions at http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html

Thanks

Downloaded following three packs boost_1_33_1 boost-build-2.0-m10 boost-jam-3.1.12

Changed vcvars32.bat for PATH,INCLUDE and LIB settings for Platform SDK

OS Environemental variables BOOST BOOST_BUILD_PATH VC80_ROOTS VC80CMNTOOLS

Use of 'bjam install' or 'bjam "-sTOOLS=vc8" install ' generates following ERRORS/MESSAGE
