You do need to define BOOST_ROOT and BOOST_BUILD_PATH. BOOST_ROOT should point to the top of the boost directory tree. This is the directory that has boost and libs subdirectories. BOOST_BUILD_PATH should be "$BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v1" Don't forget to export your environment variable. Fred J. wrote:
