Howdy, Sorry if this gets posted twice. i tried the webpage over at news.gmane.org, but it doesn't look like it got posted, so I subscribed(yay). Anyway, I'm trying to install Boost on Windows with the DJGPP compiler for c++. I've basically done nothing but get one big headache trying to follow the instructions at boost.org. So far, I have bjam in my windows\system32 directory. I tried to set it up to use DJGPP, a variant of gcc, but it doesn't seem to like my request. bjam keeps trying to use g++ instead of gpp, even though I gave it the GXX=gpp option. It also can't seem to find the directory of DJGPP, even though I used the GCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY=C:\DGJPP\ option as well. I am thoroughly stumped, and the documents over at boost.org seem to have been written by monkeys, albeit ones with good spelling and grammar. I am fairly computer literate, but those things are like rocket science to me(and I'm a nuclear engineer ;)) I'd use Boost.Build's .bat file, but I can't get bjam to work right, and then God only knows what I'll do from there, so I'd greatly appreciate a more "step-by-step" approach which is geared towards a WindowsXP user.
