I was trying to build boost-jam and boost-build executable with build.bat in Visual Studio .NET (Windows 2000) from downloaded sources. However, ended with single non-functional jam0.exe and truncated to zero length my own compiler cl.exe from Visual ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Do you mean that the compilation process actually overwrote your compiler executable??
If so, this is the second report we've had of jam modifying files that it wasn't supposed to. I can't imagine why it would do that, but maybe we can find out. Can you invoke the build script to invoke jam0 with the -d+2 -d+4 options and post the output so we can see what's going on? build.bat -d+2 -d+5 If you're afraid that will delete your compiler again, you can always add -n to prevent any build actions: build.bat -d+2 -d+5 -n I'd really appreciate having the info.
