Hello,
I hope John Maddock is reading this as he had some knowledge of the Intel compiler problem.
Yes but that doesn't mean I have a solution !
Similar to the thread quoted below, I am getting the "Windows cannot open this file" dialog when trying to build boost using VC8 as 64-bit. (Doesn't have /this/ problem when I don't set address-model=64 or use the VC7.1 x86 compiler for 32-bit builds.) This is with boost-jam-3.1.16-1-ntx86.
I've tried adding the full path to cl.exe in user-config.jam without success. For historical reasons, I am using an nmake Makefile (under a Cygwin environment) to fit the boost build into an existing build system. It essentially operates as follows:
tar jxf boost_1_34_1.tar.bz2
echo using msvc : 8.0 : "C:/WINDDK/3790.1830/bin/win64/x86/amd64/cl.exe" ; > boost_1_34_1\tools\build\v2\user-config.jam
I'm not sure, but I don't think that is a location where bjam will search for and find user-config.jam ? See http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html#bbv2.reference.in... for the paths searched. Having said that STLport appears to be getting included, so <shrug>, not sure :-( John.
