I installed Boost using the Windows installer from http://softlayer-dal.dl.sourceforge.net/project/boost/boost-binaries/1.54.0/boost_1_54_0-msvc-10.0-64.exe; maybe that didn't come with source or something? It only created \local\boost_1_54_0. After running that installer I did still have to do the bootstrap; .\b2 toolset=msvc thing to get bjam. And now that I look at that download URL, what Raghav says about using a 32-bit version might be more sensible; my python is stock 2.7.3 Windows 32-bit (not cygwin or anything weird) and I'm only looking to build extensions for a 32-bit python at this point. I did download the source distribution, but it doesn't have a Jamfile in its root dir either. Maybe I have to unpack it and run b2 to get that... I guess I'll try that next. -- Gary Oberbrunner _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig
