Boost.Build v2 with VC8
How do you do it? I've tried adding using msvc : 8.0 to user.config and I've tried using msvc : vc-8_0 since that didn't appear to work. At that point I got the message that the python lib wouldn't be build - but I've set both PYTHON_ROOT and PYTHON_VERSION to the satisfaction of Boost.Build v1. Can someone please tell me what to configure and the exact command line I should use to build it? I've already spent 2 hours running in circles in the docs and that doesn't seem to get me anywhere. Thanks, Johan

Are you able to build other libraries? I never needed Boost.Python, and I can't help you with it. But I was able to compile boost.signals and other libraries. msvc.jam doesn't use most of autodetection methods v1 toolkit uses. So I specified using msvc : 8.0 ; in user.config and had to run vsvars32.bat manually before running bjam --v2 Andrey
