Hi everyone, I am quite newbie on this and perhaps this is quite simple, sorry for the trouble. I am using VSC++ 2012, I have the boost version boost_1_60_0 and I have built it following the description in http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/more/getting_started/windows.html. No problem with batch files (bootstrap and b2). When I try to test the example code from section 6, I have the following linking error: Error 1 error LNK1104: no se puede abrir el archivo 'libboost_regex-vc110-mt-gd-1_60.lib' I have realised that in my ...\boost_1_60_0\stage\lib directory, all the .lib files have names like libboost_*-vc140-*-1_60.lib. Can anybody be so kind of telling me what I did wrong or where I have to change this?? Best wishes, Adolfo.

You have built boost for VC14, but are trying to link from VC11, when you build with bjam try: bjam toolset=msvc-11.0 --build-type=complete If you just want regex then add "--with-regex" to the command line, and if you want to speed things up with a parallel build then add -jN where N is the number of processes to use (recommended).

It looks as if you have a newer MSVC installed on your computer and boost has been built using that rather than the VS2012 version you were expecting. The simplest way to control this is probably to create a user-config.jam file. So for example on my windows machine I have: c:\documents and settings\alexp\user-config.jam which contains -------------------- # MSVC configuration using msvc : 11.0 ; # Python configuration using python : 2.7 : c:/Python27 ; --------------------------- This then selects msvc version 11.0 (VS 2012) to build boost. Though you can do this via the command-line of b2 if required but I always forget the proper incantation.... HTH Alex
