Manually calling the helper script "cl_path.cmd" results in:
cl_path.cmd 14.10 -PathToCompiler
^^ please note the correct invocation.
Works for me:
=== C:\DevRoots\Boost\master\tools\build\src\tools\vc141helper>cl_path.cmd 14.10 -PathToCompiler
Although giving it an "invalid" version confuses it: [...] Is that what you are doing?
No, I took care to do exactly as msvc.jam does. I've checked my build server at work and the auto-detection fails there as well. I've got failures on Windows 7 64bit Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 64 bit Both system running a German windows version with an English language pack only Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise installation. Compiling from a "Visual Studio Command Prompt for VS2017" works because the compiler is already in the PATH. Compiling from a vanilla cmd prompt does not work because the helper script errors out as described earlier. Yours, Jürgen -- * Dipl.-Math. Jürgen Hunold ! * voice: ++49 4257 300 !
