Hi Volodya,

Thanks for the suggestions. I still wouldn't able to build the debug version under vs9's commandline prompt. It turns out that the "--" is required otherwise bjam says it didn't recognize the keywords.

Did bjam said exactly this: "Do no recognize the keywords" ? What is the exact command line you've used and what is the exact output you've got?

I use bjam --prefix=c:\boost install --build-dir=c:\boost --variant=debug --toolset=msvc --threading=multi --link=static

As I've already said, using "--" for the last 4 tokens on the command line is wrong. - Volodya
