I have both VS2005 (VC8) and VS2008 (VC9) on the same machine.

I have already downloaded 'boost_1_34_1.zip' and installed a complete boost distribution.

On the command prompt, I go to $BOOST_ROOT and type just "bjam", with no arguments. I get the complete VC8 build in a clean way.

I follow the same procedure to build using VS2008 (vc9). I go to the $BOOST_ROOT and type "bjam --toolset=msvc-9.0 stage". I get bunch of errors, resulting in failure.

Could someone help me in building clean boost libraries, using VS2008 (VC9)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also your user-config.jam file if you want to rebuild all the libraries needs these lines; # MSVC configuration using msvc : 9.0 : "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/bin/cl.exe" ; # C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin This file needs to be in the user default directory in Vista. So the Kevlar directory, if that is your Vista Log In name. Also if you read this post, it will also list a couple other fixes I made, thanks to Greorgy Jikia, about half way down the post. http://www.nabble.com/Preliminary-0.9.0-tarballs---VC%2B%2B-2008-Express-td1...
