Hi KTC Thanks for your reply.
Well, it's normally by running bootstrap.bat at <BOOST_ROOT>/ but okay.
Ok, I have built bjam that way now.
What is your exact command?
I just ran 'bjam'. That does indeed place the libraries in <BOOST_ROOT>/stage/lib/. So all is well now and my original question is answered. Thanks. Some RegEx example code runs fine but I have a problem building a Boost.Python example. The libraries in <BOOST_ROOT>/stage/lib/ include: libboost_python-vc90-mt-gd-1_43.lib I am now trying to run the example in the boost.python 'EmbeddingPython wiki page, which begins: #include <boost/python.hpp> using namespace boost::python; int main( int argc, char ** argv ) { try { Py_Initialize(); [snip] When I build it I get error: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_python-vc90-mt-gd-1_43.lib' Why does the linker want a library file beginning 'boost_python' when bjam has generated library files beginning 'libboost_python' ?
