Hmm, no, it looks like the default config isn't quite right. You'll need to edit user-config.jam (or whichever config file you please) and uncomment the line "using boostbook ;" to get it working.
Perhaps this should be documented on the BoostBook "Getting Started" page?
Either it should be documented or fixed. I'll do one of the above Real Soon Now.
Along with the fact (if it's still true) that you have to delete catalog.xml for changes to the configuration file to take effect,
Yep, that's a really annoying, persistent problem.
and that if any existing .html files in the doc\html directory are read-only, (e.g. because cvs, or perhaps Tortoise CVS, makes them read only when you do a cvs checkout), BoostBook won't replace them?
Hmmm, right. All of these could (should) be fixed, but I should document them until they do get fixed.
Well, that gets me a little farther, but now xsltproc.exe crashes. The output is attached to the end of the message.
I re-downloaded and reinstalled libxslt and related libraries and now it seems to be working. No doubt I'll have some questions about how to use it, but that will have to wait until I actually do.
Interesting. Glad you got it up and running. Sorry it wasn't quite so smooth. Doug
