Hi Volodya,
  Let me rephrase: If the code compiles in visual studio without doing
anything special (such as  explicitly adding system library) then  I would
assume that it should also compile with bjam.

If this not so then it should be mentioned somewhere. If it is, then never
mind but please let me know the link.

In the particular case of RCF (a c++ interprocess communication routine) it
compiled fine using visual studio but had the aforementioned difficulty with
bjam. Therefore I asked.

Link for RCF if interested:

Thanks
