I have tried, with no success, to install the new boost 1.34.0 beta libraries under MS VS 2003 SP1, issuing this command line:
bjam --build-dir="my dir" --toolset=msvc-7_1 stage
msvc-7.1, not msvc-7_1
Can't bjam not issue an error message to the effect of "no such toolchain" ? I'v run into similar issues in the past, and really didn't find the actual error messages all that helpful.
No, since --toolset option autoconfigures a toolset, as opposed as using a toolset specified in user-config.jam, so "no such toolchain" is not something we can say.
I don't see how autoconfiguration could affect whether this issue is detectable. The msvc toolset can easily check to see if the version string being configured fits whatever protocol it happens to require when no further configuration information is passed. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com Don't Miss BoostCon 2007! ==> http://www.boostcon.com
