Hi,

I am new to Boost C++, and want to install it to use Semantic Search engine.
I am trying to run "make" but it gives me error when i run make.
Please guid eme through this .
I am using Cygwin,win XP.

Following are the steps I performed.

$ tar --bzip2 -xf /path/to/boost_1_34_1.tar.bz2

$ ./configure
Building Boost.Jam with toolset gcc... tools/jam/src/bin.cygwinx86/bjam
Detecting Python version... 2.5
Detecting Python root... /usr
Unicode/ICU support for Boost.Regex?... not found.
Backing up existing Boost.Build configuration in user-config.jam.4
Generating Boost.Build configuration in user-config.jam...
Generating Makefile...

 $ make
MAKE  Version 2.0   Copyright (c) 1987, 1988 Borland International
Error makefile 28: Command syntax error
Available memory 547555 bytes
*** 1 errors in compile ***

The content of the Makefile is as follow:

BJAM=./tools/jam/src/bin.cygwinx86/bjam
BJAM_CONFIG=
PREFIX=/usr/local
EPREFIX=/usr/local
LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib
INCLUDEDIR=/usr/local/include
LIBS=
all: .dummy
 @echo "$(BJAM) $(BJAM_CONFIG) --user-config=user-config.jam $(LIBS)"
 @$(BJAM) $(BJAM_CONFIG) --user-config=user-config.jam $(LIBS) || \
 echo "Not all Boost libraries built properly."
clean: .dummy
 rm -rf bin.v2
distclean: clean
 rm -rf Makefile config.log
check: .dummy
 @cd status && ../$(BJAM) $(BJAM_CONFIG) --user-config=../user-config.jam ||
echo "Some Boost regression tests failed. This is normal for many
compilers."
install: .dummy
 @echo "$(BJAM) $(BJAM_CONFIG)
--user-config=user-config.jam--prefix=$(PREFIX)
--exec-prefix=$(EPREFIX) --libdir=$(LIBDIR)
--includedir=$(INCLUDEDIR) $(LIBS) install"
 @$(BJAM) $(BJAM_CONFIG) --user-config= user-config.jam --prefix=$(PREFIX)
--exec-prefix=$(EPREFIX) --libdir=$(LIBDIR) --includedir=$(INCLUDEDIR)
$(LIBS) install || echo "Not all Boost libraries built properly."
.dummy:
