Hello all,

 

My PC details:

Windows XP sp 3.

Mingw (latest, added path)

 

Here are the steps I took:

 

1) After checking out the latest Boost from CVS I went and build bjam using
mingw:

> cd C:\Dev\Checkout\boost\tools\jam\src

> build mingw

 

2) After build I copied the bjam.exe to boot++ root dir
(C:\Dev\Checkout\boost)

 

Result) 

got this error while trying to run it:

C:\Dev\Checkout\boost>bjam "-sTOOLS=mingw" -s"MINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=C:\MinGW"
toolset=mingw install

mingw.jam: No such file or directory

C:/Dev/Checkout/boost/tools/build/v2/build\toolset.jam:27: in toolset.using

rule mingw.init unknown in module toolset.

Here is the gcc output  from compiling :
