In the explanation for como-win32 toolset configuration variables, the variable COMO_BACKEND_PATH, which says "Path to backend compiler" has a default value of $(VC7_TOOLS). Running vcvars32.bat for vc7

I believe this is error in documentation. Actual value being used in como-win23-tools.jam is VC7_ROOT . This should have been set by your vcvars32.bat to c:\vsnet\vc7 (given your example directory c:\vsnet ).

The vcvars32.bat does not set a VC7_ROOT. But looking at the explanation for VC7_ROOT it is probably taken from MSVCDir, which is set by vcvars32.bat. I will set COMO_BACKEND_PATH to the value of MSVCDir. Thanks !
