I was wondering the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 was going to be a future platform for boost. I believe no port is necessary just the appropriate bjam configuration.
I have tried using the "vc-7_1" option but even though most of the libraries are created, when you try to use them, files such as msvcptr.lib are requested (though this does not generate any error during the compilation)...
Maybe there is a workaround already?
I don't believe any workarounds are required as such: the toolkit ships with the same compiler as VC7.1, the only difference is that the dynamic runtime libraries are not supplied. So as long as you build your application with a static runtime you should be OK - unless I'm missing something here. John.
