It turned out the installation had not installed all files... .. but gave no error!!?? .. anyway, I redownloaded and installed and now it works! Wouldn't have guessed it if you haven't said the installation was corrupt. thanks! Cheers, Soren -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Now I have unzipped boost- build-2.0-m11.zip inside my boost_1_33_1 directory. It contains a bootstrap.jam file and a new error appear: C:\boost_1_33_1\libs\python\example\tutorial>bjam sTOOLS=vc-8_0 error: Could not find parent for project at '../../../..' error: Did not find Jamfile or project-root.jam in any parent directory. In case you didn't guess... I am totally lost by now! :) If I ever get this thing up and running.. I will write a new tutorial and send it to boost. Thanks!

It is essential for boost build system that the file bootstrap.jam could be found. -- HTH, Rob -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Boost Problem! Boost.Build not found
Hi! I'm trying to extend my python program with some C++ code. Right now I've spent hours just trying to get boost to work! I'm trying to get the example hello.cpp to work. Using Windows XP and Visual Studio 8 (.NET 2005) I've set BOOST_BUILD_PATH = C:\boost\boost_1_33_1 (where i installed boost) I've changed the jamrules in C:\boost\boost_1_33_1\libs\python\example \tutorial to path-global BOOST_ROOT : C:\boost\boost_1_33_1 ; No matter what I do i always get: C:\boost\boost_1_33_1\libs\python\example\tutorial>bjam -sTOOLS=vc-8_0 Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find "boost-build.jam" --- Attempted search from C:\boost\boost_1_33_1\libs\python\example \tutorial up to t he root and in these directories from BOOST_BUILD_PATH and BOOST_ROOT: C:\boost\boost_1_ 33_1. Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'. Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?? Theres no tutorial on how to make a boost-build.jam file.. and as I understand I don't need one as long as I set BOOST_BUILD_PATH .. Any help is apprecieated!! Thanks!, Soren -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
