Look in the "Getting Started" Documentation under the "stage" target keyword. install just copies the the headers. stage builds the headers an copies them to a target directory. Robert Ramey Ken Perry wrote:

My problem is I am using Mingw under windows xp Pro. I am trying to get the libraries to compile and install in c:\boost which from what I have read is the default directory. when I do
bjam --install -sTOOLS=mingw
It seems to compile the libraries of corse I think 88 of them fail but it doesn't move the libraries over. What am I doing wrong?
Oh one more thing it complains that I don't have python installed at the beginning do I have to have that library because I don't use it in the source I am porting from Linux I just need the boost libraries to get the software ported.
