Re: [Boost-users] Failed building Boost using MinGW

So here's the scenario : - My MinGW directory is C:\mingw (don't put it at the PATH, because of Cygwin) - My Boost directory is C:\mingw\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\boost_1_33_1

So I put the bjam.exe in the Boost directory then invoke : bjam -sMINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=c:\mingw\ stage

And an error message box "bjam.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close..." appers.

Any solution ?

Not immediately... But did you forget to add a "-sTOOLS=mingw" option? -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
