Re: [Boost-users] cannot build v1.35 on cygwin

tried

./bjam --build-dir=boost-binary --toolset=gcc
<threading>multi <target-os>cygwin <threadapi>pthread

but the result is bash: threading: No such file or
directory

I look at the options on bjam, there is no option
named threading, target-os and threadapi. So bjam just
cannot recongnize them.

thanks,
