Hi All,

I'm trying to build Boost-1.54.0 with msvc12 (=Visual Studio 2013) on Windows 7.

One issue I'm unable to fix so far is:

= = 
...skipped <pbin.v2\libs\date_time\build\msvc\release\address-model-32\link-static>libboost_date_time-vc-1_54.lib for lack of <pbin.v2\libs\date_time\build\msvc\release\address-model-32\link-static>gregorian\greg_month.obj…
= = 

I've checked that the "gregorian" folder is being created. A greg_month.obj.rsp file gets created, but not a greg_month.obj.

I'm b2.exe running with the following options:

   -d+0 --layout=versioned toolset=msvc address-model=64 threading=multi link=static variant=release -q  install --prefix=+my_install_dir --with-date_time

Whether I run this for a 32 bit target or 64, single or multi threading, I get the same error.

I've already applied the patch 002-date-time.patch (with appropriate CRLF endings.)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Regards,
Chait

Note: My project-config.jam reads:

= =
import option ; 
using msvc ; 
option.set keep-going : false ;
