I´m totally new to boost, I just downloaded boost_1_63_0 and I´m trying to
build the tutorial example located in
\boost_1_63_0\libs\python\example\tutorial
by following the tutorial documentation
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/libs/python/doc/html/tutorial/index.htm...
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/libs/python/doc/html/tutorial/
index.html
The example is quite simple: it only contains 4 files:
1. hello.cpp
2. hello.py
3. Jamfile
4. ../Jamroot
For simplicity I´m pasting below the content of each file :
// hello.cpp
#include
#include
char const* greet()
{
return "hello, world";
}
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(hello_ext)
{
using namespace boost::python;
def("greet", greet);
}
// hello.py
import hello_ext
print(hello_ext.greet())
And finally the boost configuration file:
// Jamfile
import python ;
project tutorial
: requirements
<location>.
;
python-extension hello_ext : hello.cpp ;
run-test hello : hello_ext hello.py ;
alias test : hello ;
explicit test ;
// ../Jamroot
import python ;
if ! [ python.configured ]{
ECHO "warning: no Python configured in user-config.jam" ;
ECHO "warning: will use default configuration" ;
using python ;}
# Adjust the following if Boost.Python isn't installed in a default location
lib boost_python ;
project
: requirements# <include>/path/to/boost/python
<library>boost_python;
rule run-test ( test-name : sources + ){
import testing ;
testing.make-test run-pyd : $(sources) : : $(test-name) ;}
build-project quickstart ;
build-project tutorial ;if [ python.numpy ]{
build-project numpy ;}
When I execute bjam.exe from my cmd prompt (after properly adding in the
environment variables the path where bjam.exe is located) I get the
following errors:
...found 12 targets......updating 5 targets...
compile-c-c++ hello.obj
hello.cpp
hello.cpp(7) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file:

hello_ext.pyd......failed updating 1 target......skipped 4
targets...
When I try and build the project from VS2012 I can build it properly
because i know hot to add additional include libraries to the project, but
I cannot find the proper way to config the Jamfile to make it build from
command line.
I tried to config the Jamroot file by changing the path to the boost/python
libraries local path but with no luck.
I wonder where and how should I add the absoulute path of the boost/python
libraries.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!
