Hi,

I'm trying to install and use Boost 1_53_0 on MAC OS X Mountain Lion and use it with the latest XCODE 4.6.x.  I want to port a small MS VS MFC C++ app. I developed on Windows to MAC.

Specifically I need to install and build boost as static libraries.  I'm completely new to programming on the MAC side of things.  I understand that XCODE now uses

LLVM Clang, with libc++ and not GCC.  I've used GCC on Linux.

I started following the instructions at:

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html

but quickly ran into trouble.  Does anyone have detailed instructions for how to install and compile boost statically under Mountain Lion and XCode 4.6?

Below is the terminal input and output showing how far I got.

Thanks.

Terminal IO:

./bootstrap.sh --with-bjam=BJAM --with-toolset=TOOLSET

-bash: ./bootstrap: No such file or directory
