Hello,

I've had a few problems over the years running the build for boost.
The command line I use is:
vs2010

*b2 toolset=msvc-10.0 --stagedir=stage\x32 variant=debug,release
threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static --with-date_time
--with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic stage*
vs2013

*b2 toolset=msvc-12.0 --stagedir=stage\x32 variant=debug,release
threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static --with-date_time
--with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic stage*
vs2015

*b2 toolset=msvc-14.0 --stagedir=stage\x32 variant=debug,release
threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static --with-date_time
--with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic stage*

64 bit

using the 64 bit visual-studio command prompt run the following command in
the boost directory
vs2010

*b2 toolset=msvc-10.0 --stagedir=stage\x64 address-model=64
variant=debug,release threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static
--with-date_time --with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic
stage*
vs2013

*b2 toolset=msvc-12.0 --stagedir=stage\x64 address-model=64
variant=debug,release threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static
--with-date_time --with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic
stage*
vs2015

*b2 toolset=msvc-14.0 --stagedir=stage\x64 address-model=64
variant=debug,release threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static
--with-date_time --with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic
stage*

When the task is completed the 64bit libraries will be found in
<boostDIR>\stage\lib\x64\lib

These commands are broken down as follows:
*toolset=msvc-14.0*

*The version of visual studio-compile to use.*

* --stagedir=stage\x64*

*The output directory for the lib-files*

* address-model=64*

*This is used to instruct B2 to compile 64-bit libraries*

* variant=debug,release*

*This will instruct B2 to build both the release and debug libs*

* threading=multi*

*Used to instruct boost to use multi-threading - I'd recommend using it
unless you are building a single-threaded software*

* link=static *

*Static output Lib files (rather than DLLs)*

*runtime-link=static*

*Outputs the static-libraries, rather than dynamic libraries with
static-wrappers*

* --with-date_time --with-thread --with-system --with-chrono --with-atomic
stage*

*Using the --with-library instructs B2 to only build these specific
libraries.If you know exactly what libraries you want to compile this can
save you hours of compile time. If you don't know what you need, omit this
- it will build everything.*
