Property <setup> is mentioned in msvc.jam but neither "--setup=" nor "setup=" works.
Can you give me any advice on the command line syntax?
It's not possible to configure that from the command line. You need to set up a "user-config.jam" with a special msvc toolset configuration. See the BB configuration docs http://tinyurl.com/78kcq7 for details on how to do that.
Thanks a lot, this solved my problem. Here are the necessary steps in case anyone ever needs something similar: Create a file called user-config.jam in directory %USERPROFILE% and an empty bjam.bat file in directory C:\. user-config.jam has to contain this line: using msvc : 8.0 : : <setup>"C:\\bjam.bat" ; Regards, Peter.
