Component:  Building Boost      |     Version:  Boost Development Trunk

--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 The attached patches to the boost build tools add recognition of msvc-9.0.
 The changes effectively reproduce the current msvc-8.0
 behaviours/setttings.

 So far, they are untested -- it is not clear to me what command I need to
 invoke from where to check these patches.  Do I need to build a new bjam
 or can I just one of the python scripts?

 There are a few enhancements that I will work on once these basics are
 establised.

 For example: the ability to set floating point behaviour, whether to use
 sse/sse2, and enabling code analysis and container debugging, etc.
