lib folder?

5 Jun 2007

      I just installed MinGW and Boost.  The boost_1_34_0 folder I extracted
from the downloaded zip did not contain a "lib" folder, which is
referred to in the Getting Started for Windows guide
(http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started/windows.html).  I've
already built all the Boost libraries, so I'm guessing that I need to
copy the lib folder from the new stage folder into the boost root.  Is
that correct?

Also, I built bjam with the "mingw" toolset, and Boost with "gcc".  Is
that a problem?  Here are the commands I ran:

*Building bjam*: c:\Program Files\boost_1_34_0\tools\jam\src\build mingw
*Building Boost*: c:\Program Files\boost_1_34_0\bjam --build-dir=build
--toolset=gcc stage

Does that make sense?  Am I doing everything right, so far?
