Hi, I'm trying to build boost for windows ce, and I'm having some 
issues. Any suggestions on what specifically I'm doing wrong, or advice 
on documentation/examples I should look at appreciated.

I modified user-config.jam (attached) based on this:
http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/VeecoFTC.html

That references setup batch files I haven't been to find, but the 
attached batch file seems about right.

This command:
bjam system toolset=msvc-8.0~wm5~stlport5.2 stdlib=stlport > bjam.txt

gets:
libs\system\src\error_code.cpp(85) : error C2039: 'strerror' : is not a 
member of 'stlp_std'

stlport cstring says:
#  if !defined (_STLP_WCE)
// these functions just don't exist on Windows CE
using _STLP_VENDOR_CSTD::strcoll;
using _STLP_VENDOR_CSTD::strerror;
using _STLP_VENDOR_CSTD::strxfrm;
#  endif

and in fact if the using statement for strerror is moved outside the 
#if, strerror can't be found in global namespace.

A stub inline definition of strerror returning NULL makes the compiler 
go away...

I can think of three obvious problems:
1) env setup in evc8.bat is wrong.
2) user-config.jam is wrong
3) I'm missing some other obvious config necessary to build for windows ce.

Even with my hack, filesystem has many more errors, looking for 
GetCurrentDirectoryW, GetFullPathNameW, CreateHardLinkW and some others. 
  Current directory doesn't exist in CE, which makes me think that I 
somehow haven't really told the boost build system I'm building for CE.

Any ideas?

thanks

Andy

#   This file is used to configure your Boost.Build installation. You can modify
# this file in place, or you can place it in a permanent location so that it
# does not get overwritten should you get a new version of Boost.Build. See:
#
#   http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html#bbv2.reference.init
#
# for documentation about possible permanent locations.

#   This file specifies which toolsets (C++ compilers), libraries, and other
# tools are available. Often, you should be able to just uncomment existing
# example lines and adjust them to taste. The complete list of supported tools,
# and configuration instructions can be found at:
#
#   http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference/tools.html
#

#   This file uses Jam language syntax to describe available tools. Mostly,
# there are 'using' lines, that contain the name of the used tools, and
# parameters to pass to those tools -- where paremeters are separated by
# semicolons. Important syntax notes:
#
#   - Both ':' and ';' must be separated from other tokens by whitespace
#   - The '\' symbol is a quote character, so when specifying Windows paths you
#     should use '/' or '\\' instead.
