Hi and thanks for your reply.

For Wt I need these libraries:
boost_date_time, boost_regex, and boost_program_options, boost_signals, and optionally boost_thread

& bjam toolset=darwin --with-test --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-iostreams --with-thread --with-regex --with-date_time --with-signals variant=release,debug threading=multi link=static runtime-link=shared --prefix=/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/ architecture=combined install


..
...skipped <p/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/lib>libboost_unit_test_framework-xgcc-mt-d.a for lack of <p/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/lib>libboost_unit_test_framework-xgcc-mt-d-1_38.a...
...skipped <p/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/lib>libboost_thread-xgcc-mt-d.a for lack of <p/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/lib>libboost_thread-xgcc-mt-d-1_38.a...
...failed updating 136 targets...
...skipped 66 targets...
...updated 7326 targets...

$

I run the above, but it did not work!

My /Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/ has:

$ tree -L 2 /Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/
/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_38/
|-- include
|   `-- boost-1_38
`-- lib

Where the lib directory is empty, should this be the case?

Thanks for any advice.

Norman
