I think you need to ommit NO_COMPRESSION, NO_ZLIB, .. from the command lines. Simply defining the environment variables specifying the ;ocations source of the headers and binaries will enable compression support.
Let me know if it works.
It works, thank you. The autolinking feature still tries to link (lib)boost_bzip2-vc71-mt-1_33.lib, so in addition to omitting NO_COMPRESSION... I had to define the preprocessor symbol BOOST_IOSTREAMS_NO_LIB in my project settings and add boost_iostreams-vc71-mt-1_33.lib manually (this works because both bzip2.cpp and zlib.cpp are be compiled into (lib)boost_iostreams-vc71-mt-1_33.lib). I also tried to add -sBZIP2_SOURCE=... and -sZLIB_SOURCE=... to the bjam call to let bjam create libboost_bzip2 and libboost_zlib. Unfortunately, this does not seem to create the dll versions. -- Klaus
