This is probably a stupid question, but why don't you have the
Jamroot file in the vc directory? And shouldn't it be Jamfile
instead?

Yup.

Move the Jam[root|file] into the same directory as the vcproj file!

Alternatively, you could try adding "../main.cpp" into the vcproj
file as one of the supplementary files.

Not as far as I know. It is possible to do it the other way around,
and get the Jamroot in project/ to use the main.cpp in vc/:

   exe hi : vc/main.cpp ;

Then you don't need the main.cpp in the project/ directory :).
