Hello!! All,

 

I ned help for BUILDING and INSTALLING the Boost Libraries through VC++ Express Edition .

 I tweaked it for couple of hrs unscussefully. 

 

 

 

Here is a  run down of the steps I have taken

 

Downloaded following three packs

boost_1_33_1

boost-build-2.0-m10

boost-jam-3.1.12

 

 

Changed vcvars32.bat for PATH,INCLUDE and LIB settings for Platform SDK

 

OS Environemental variables

BOOST

BOOST_BUILD_PATH

VC80_ROOTS

VC80CMNTOOLS

 

 

 

Use of   'bjam install'  or 'bjam "-sTOOLS=vc8" install '   generates following ERRORS/MESSAGE

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

C:/dnld/BOOST/boost_1_33_1/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:48: in load
rule os.environ unknown in module build-system.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\kernel\modules.jam:259: in import
C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\kernel\bootstrap.jam:120: in boost-build
C:\dnld\BOOST\boost-build-2.0-m10\boost-build\boost-build.jam:1: in module scope
 

 

can someone of you take a while to show pointers to correct me. 

Thanks for all your time.
