Hello, I try to build Boost with MinGW / MSYS. I have found in the dokumentation http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/more/getting_started/windows.html that MinGW shell is not supported, but I can build bJam with booststrap.sh --toolset=mingw under the shell, but I get the error: mingw.jam: No such file or directory Can I build boost under MinGW shell or another shell with the MinGW gcc? Thanks Phil

No my b2 command above uses toolset=gcc-4.7.2, so it doesn't mention the toolchain. How it worked producing DLLs with mgw47 in the name, I don't understand, but it might get you going until you get understand more fully.

I build the b2 with "bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=mingw" after this I remove the project-config.jam in the main boost directory, after that I build boost with "b2 toolset=gcc _other_parameter_". It seems to be working Phil
