[Boost-users] how does one compile boost for MinGW?

Hi,

I know it's stated that compiling boost for MinGW is not supported, but 
still, I see some online resources about this. I tried several 
approaches, but none of them seem to work.

Is there any authorotive information on how does it really work?

The approaches I tried and which all failed so far:

- try to compile boost running bjam.exe from a Windows Command Prompt
- try to compile boost from an MSYS prompt, going through the 
./configure && make && make install process

(I can provide outputs in case they are needed)

Any help would be appreciated.
