Hello. I just downloaded the boost library. I want to build bjam tool on my Windows machine. I need to get boost work for my eclipse IDE. But why I can't find the jam directory under boost/tools? How can I do that? Thanks.

Execute bootstrap.bat (in the root folder of the source) from a Visual Studio command prompt. John

This is documented under the "Getting Started" link on Boost.org. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/more/getting_started/windows.html -- Marshall
