I am trying to build boost for Windows... , I am currently using Visual studio 2005 Express edition (vc8). Here are the steps that I follow.
C:\boost_1_33_1>bjam
******************************************************
Building Boost.Iostreams with bzip2 support disabled.
To enable bzip2, consult the Boost.Iostreams documentation
******************************************************
******************************************************
Building Boost.Iostreams with zlib and gzip support disabled.

*** If you don't need Boost.Python, you can ignore this section ***
*** pass --without-python to suppress this message in the future ***
skipping Boost.Python library
build due to missing or incorrect configuration
couldn't find Python.h in "c:/Python24/include"
You can configure the location of your python installation by setting:
PYTHON_VERSION - The 2-part python Major.Minor version number (e.g.
"2.2", NOT "2.2.1") - currently "2.4"
PYTHON_ROOT - automatically configured from PYTHON_VERSION if not
otherwise set ; currently "c:/Python24"
The following are automatically configured from PYTHON_ROOT if not
otherwise set:
PYTHON_LIB_PATH - path to Python library object;
currently
"c:/Python24/libs"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
(and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably don't need it).

its very
stranger that it always take the path for vc7.1. Can Anyone tell what is the other way to build boost for Windows.
I have previously tried for Monta Vista Linux too, sorry its fails to compile.
Thanks,
Rishi
