Hi! Jan,

 

I tried the one you have suggested, and I get message like , vc80-tools.jam : NO such file or directory.

 

Yes, I did visit  http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html and followed all the insturctions for vcvars32.bat and

other tips, but it did not work.

 

 

I also tried.. 

 bjam  -sTOOLS=msvc --v2

 

but it does not generate libs in C:\BOOST\.

 

 

I wonder, if I'm not executing bjam from right location, I use BOOST ROOT DIRECTORY to execute bjam for complete installation.

 

 

For individual library like regex, I 'm able to compile from its source using its make file.

but I can not compile library like program_options from its source file as there is no make file available.

since regex is dependent of program_options, I'm stuck

 

pl comment .

 

Thanks for your time.

 

Hemal

Hi

Try bjam "-sTOOLS=vc80" (NB: the zero after the 8), have you looked at
the instructions at http://boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html

Thanks
