Installation problems
Hello Dear Boosters! Merry X'MAS and Happy New Year! I have some problems when installing the current version from cvs. I tried in Windows XP with VC++ 2003 and Python 2.5. * Command 1 C:\Source\boost>bjam -sTOOLS=vc-7_1 --with-python-version=2.5 --with- python-root=C:\Python25 --prefix="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7" install * Result error: wrong library name 'python-version=2.5' in the --with- <library> option. ------- *Command 2 C:\Source\boost>bjam -sTOOLS=vc-7_1 --with-python-root=C:\Python25 -- with-python-version=2.5 --prefix="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7" install *Result error: wrong library name 'python-root=C:\Python25' in the --with- <library> option. -------- * Command 3 ( Defining PYTHON_ROOT and PYTHON_VERSION) C:\Source\boost>bjam -sTOOLS=vc-7_1 --prefix="C:\Program Files \Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7" install * Result The mpi module has not been initialized; MPI libraries will not be built. hint: add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam to enable MPI support. warning: Python location is not configured warning: the Boost.Python library won't be built Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.

Try to use the command line with changed back slash to slash, i.e. C:\Python25 to C:/Python25 With Kind Regards, Ovanes _____ From: Yutaka Leon Suematsu [mailto:yutaka@atr.jp] Sent: Tuesday, December 26, 2006 4:07 AM To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Subject: [Boost-users] Installation problems Hello Dear Boosters!

The python-version option is not currently supported. Just leave it out; as long as your python is in the PATH it should work.

Nor is python-root.

That's the name of the toolset. Please see the new getting started instructions at http://boost-consulting.com/boost/more/getting_started/index.html -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
Thank Dave, I could install Boost, including Booost.Python, without problems. For Python, I used the work-around described by Chris on Dec 17th. Adding "using python : 2.5 : <python root> ;" in user-config.jam Thank you, Yutaka On 12/27/06 3:48 AM, in article 45916E6D.4020505@boost-consulting.com, "David Abrahams" <dave@boost-consulting.com> wrote:
