Building boost fails with VS2017 (v15.5.2)
This is rather strange. I have downloaded boost 1.66 and can build Boost.Build engine. But building the libs fails. The full output is here: https://pastebin.com/raw/mRriQDvq Here is what I'm seeing: ********************************************************************** ** Visual Studio 2017 Developer Command Prompt v15.5.2 ** Copyright (c) 2017 Microsoft Corporation ********************************************************************** [vcvarsall.bat] Environment initialized for: 'x64' C:\Users\chhenning\source>d: D:\>cd boost D:\boost>.\bootstrap.bat Building Boost.Build engine Bootstrapping is done.

Anyone any idea what is going on?
I did something similar but without a problem, here is my build script I used, with boost directory being the boost 1.66 sources: pushd .\boost call bootstrap.bat set BOOST_INSTALL_DIR=../boost-install set BOOST_BUILD_TOOLSET=msvc-14.1 set BOOST_BUILD_TYPE=complete set BOOST_BUILD_PROCS=8 for %%x in (32 64) do ( call b2 install --prefix=%BOOST_INSTALL_DIR% -j%BOOST_BUILD_PROCS% --buid-type=%BOOST_BUILD_TYPE% toolset=%BOOST_BUILD_TOOLSET% architecture=x86 address-model=%%x threading=multi ) popd What's weird is that your error is mainly that cl is not found. Maybe try with --toolset=msvc-14.1 to be more specific but I fail to see why it would be necessary, it seems to be tedected from the library names generated. I don't know the other flags you are using so they might play a role in your problem. A. Joël Lamotte

I did something similar but without a problem, here is my build script I used, with boost directory being the boost 1.66 sources:
pushd .\boost call bootstrap.bat set BOOST_INSTALL_DIR=../boost-install set BOOST_BUILD_TOOLSET=msvc-14.1 set BOOST_BUILD_TYPE=complete set BOOST_BUILD_PROCS=8
for %%x in (32 64) do ( call b2 install --prefix=%BOOST_INSTALL_DIR% -j%BOOST_BUILD_PROCS% --buid-type=%BOOST_BUILD_TYPE% toolset=%BOOST_BUILD_TOOLSET% architecture=x86 address-model=%%x threading=multi ) popd
What's weird is that your error is mainly that cl is not found. Maybe try with --toolset=msvc-14.1 to be more specific but I fail to see why it would be necessary, it seems to be tedected from the library names generated. I don't know the other flags you are using so they might play a role in your problem.

It's 14.12.25827 for me too on my installation. I'm not sure why I'm not hitting the same issue. Where did you download the sources? Are you sure this is boost 1.66.0 sources? A. Joël Lamotte

The script is out-dated. Delete it and let it be regenerated. (Note: In develop the script is generated under bin.v2 so a clean build will never pick up an old script. I also tried to make it auto-update.) In Christ, Steven Watanabe
Thanks Joël and Steven. Deleting the files worked. I think the problem is that after the new VS update (now v15.5.2) the toolset name "msvc-14.1" is still the same? Regards, Christian
