Thus when I start cmd.exe, I already have all variables defined, like: F:\>set [...cut...] MSVCDir=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7 [...cut...] PATH=[...usual stuff...];C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\BIN;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Tools;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Tools\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\bin;C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322; [following ones are less important] VCINSTALLDIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 VS71COMNTOOLS=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Tools\ VSINSTALLDIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE 2. becasue I also have few environment settings crafted for boost 1.31, I need to reset them before running regression tests. These are: F:\>set BOOST_ROOT=F:\boost F:\>set INCLUDE=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\ATLMFC\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\PlatformSDK\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\include F:\>set LIB=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\ATLMFC\LIB;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\LIB;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\PlatformSDK\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\lib 3. Running regression tests (standalone) is as trivial as F:\>cd boost\status F:\boost\status>bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1" 4. Regression tests that you may see on meta-comm site are actually run by regression.py , and procedure to run it is little different Regards B.
