Hi, I've looked at all the documentation I can find on building boost on AIX for vacpp. However, I just can't get it to build! I'm using the prebuilt jam executable (not the one I built myself as it doesn't work - yacc stack overflow problems) and this is what I get :- bash-2.01$ jam -sBOOST_ROOT=. -sTOOLS="vacpp"

status/Jamfile:368: in SubInclude ./tools/build/allyourbase.jam:1141: in subinclude Jamfile:5: in module scope Unable to load Boost.Build, it seems that the build system files were located, but the build system is not defined. Attempted to use, as the bootstrap, this file: ./tools/build/boost-build.jam. This means that even though that file was loaded it either failed to directly load the build system files, or it failed to specify where to find and load the files by calling the 'build-system [path] ;' rule. Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'. bash-2.01$ Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Jon.
