Hi folks -- new to Boost.Python, old-school C/C++/Python developer. I'm trying to set up Boost.Python 1.54.0 on Windows 7, python 2.7.3, Visual Studio 2010. I installed boost_1_54_0 using the VS10 installer, then built bjam using 'bootstrap; .\b2 toolset=msvc', then copied bjam into my $PATH. I can build and run the quickstart and tutorial examples in the distribution (I had to add some MSVC lib dirs as library-path requirements in Jamroot, but that's OK). But when I copy the tutorial example to a different dir, not inside the boost distribution dir, to make it more like a real project, bjam gives build errors. I changed the use-project boost location in Jamroot to /local/boost_1_54_0/ which is where boost wanted to install itself, and added a simple one-line boost-build.jam (based on something I found online):
boost-build C:/local/boost_1_54_0/tools/build/v2 ; but ultimately bjam gives me this error: % bjam notice: no Python configured in user-config.jam notice: will use default configuration C:/local/boost_1_54_0/tools/build/v2/build\project.jam:262: in find-jamfile from module project error: Unable to load Jamfile. error: Could not find a Jamfile in directory '/local/boost_1_54_0'. error: Attempted to find it with pattern '[Bb]uild.jam [Jj]amfile.v2 [Jj]amfile [Jj]amfile.jam'. error: Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'.
