Sorry to interrupt all,

I am a newer for python/boost.python from c++, I want to use boost.python to extend python in Windows/VS2008, and I have download a installer and instal it from: http://www.boostpro.com/products/free

I see some pages on the net that they say boost.python should be compile first before use, Now I have a question, Do i need to compile boost.python after I instal the installer? (from the installer, I think I don't need to compile it again )

You do not need to rebuild the boost.python library binaries unless you need to use build options that are incompatible with the binaries provided by the installer -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
