Hi,

i have Microsoft VC 8.0 and the actual Microsoft Vista SDK install on my box.

When i try to build boost with bjam with the following parameters:

"bin\bjam.exe" -d 0 stage --stagedir=. --toolset=msvc link=static runtime-link=shared architecture=x86 release debug address-model=32

i do get vc9 used instead of the vc8. How can i "tell" bjam to generate the library using vc8 instead of vc9?

Try the following command line: "bin\bjam.exe" -d 0 stage --stagedir=. toolset=msvc-8.0 link=static runtime-link=shared architecture=x86 release debug address-model=32 - Volodya
