[Build 1.34.0 MinGW] I'm getting different build files for 1.34.0 than I did for 1.33.1

When I built boost 1.33.1 with GCC 3.4.5 on WinXP I got 274 files in the \boost\lib directory consisting of both DLLs and .lib files. When I built boost 1.34 (following the new getting started directions) I only got 154 files in \boost\lib none were DLL or LIB, they were all .a files. Interestingly when the 1.34.0 build starts I get "Unable to construct ./install-unversioned" messages that I don't get in the 1.33.1 build: ...found 1 target... C:\src\c++\boost_1_34_0>bjam --toolset=gcc --prefix=C:\Boost1.34.0 install Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled. Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information (don't panic: this is a strictly optional feature). warning: Unable to construct ./install-unversioned warning: Unable to construct ./install-unversioned warning: Unable to construct ./install-unversioned Thanks, Ken

heres what i do to build mingW since i am using dev-cpp compiler. step 1: edit user-config.jam (this will tell where the compiler is). gcc : : "C:/Dev-Cpp/bin/gcc" step 2: erase the "install" ... its more like bjam "--toolset=gcc" "--build-dir=C:\install-boost" and thats it....

It didn't seem to have a problem finding my compiler (although I will try the edit you suggest and use the copy of GCC I have under \Dev-Cpp instead of the one I have under \MinGW). The compiler seems to work OK, its just that the build products I get appear to be for a linux platform (.a files) instead of windows (.lib and .dll files). What files did you end up with in your C:\install-boost\lib directory?

hmm yeah i have dll but not lib. instead what i have is.. I build with -sBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=0 C:\${install-dir}\boost\bin.v2\lib\${boostLibname}\gcc-mingw-3.4.2\release\ inside has .a and .dll and .o files. On 5/18/07, Ken Klose wrote:
