Help to BUILD AND INSTALL Boost Libraries
Hello!! All, I ned help for BUILDING and INSTALLING the Boost Libraries through VC++ Express Edition . I tweaked it for couple of hrs unscussefully. Here is a run down of the steps I have taken Downloaded following three packs boost_1_33_1 boost-build-2.0-m10 boost-jam-3.1.12 Changed vcvars32.bat for PATH,INCLUDE and LIB settings for Platform SDK OS Environemental variables BOOST BOOST_BUILD_PATH VC80_ROOTS VC80CMNTOOLS Use of 'bjam install' or 'bjam "-sTOOLS=vc8" install ' generates following ERRORS/MESSAGE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ C:/dnld/BOOST/boost_1_33_1/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:48: in load rule os.environ unknown in module build-system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\kernel\modules.jam:259: in import C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\kernel\bootstrap.jam:120: in boost-build C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\boost-build.jam:1: in module scope can someone of you take a while to show pointers to correct me. Thanks for all your time. Hemal Patel
Hi Try bjam "-sTOOLS=vc80" (NB: the zero after the 8), have you looked at the instructions at http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html Thanks Hemal patel wrote:

Hi! Jan, I tried the one you have suggested, and I get message like , vc80-tools.jam: NO such file or directory. Yes, I did visit http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html and followed all the insturctions for vcvars32.bat and other tips, but it did not work. I also tried.. bjam -sTOOLS=msvc --v2 but it does not generate libs in C:\BOOST\. I wonder, if I'm not executing bjam from right location, I use BOOST ROOT DIRECTORY to execute bjam for complete installation. For individual library like regex, I 'm able to compile from its source using its make file. but I can not compile library like program_options from its source file as there is no make file available. since regex is dependent of program_options, I'm stuck pl comment . Thanks for your time. Hemal On 6/8/06, Jan Stetka <janpstetka@tiscali.co.uk> wrote:

I find it doesn't matter what directory you execute bjam from it works. That is it is built once and i copy the bjam executable between projects i want to build. That is with vc7.1
I tried the one you have suggested, and I get message like , vc80-tools.jam : NO such file or directory.
It looks like the 'bjam "-sTOOLS=vc8" you were using was the correct name for the toolset. Thanks
Why don't you use boost installer? It will download and install all required libs, headers and sources: http://www.boost-consulting.com/download.html You will only need to set correct path to boost libs in VC8. With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian On Thu, June 8, 2006 19:41, Hemal patel wrote:

Ovanes, Thanks for your link, It worked cleancly and now I'm able to access REGEX. Rene, I did try as per your suggestion, but it didn't work , it gives some errors related to lex and bison. Thanks all of you for precious time. Hemal Patel On 6/8/06, Ovanes Markarian <om_boost@keywallet.com> wrote:
