Yeah. > > Appreciate the help / any ideas. Just a wild guess; what if you move the Boost installation to another path, without the "++" part. Or, instead of moving, you could try to use SUBST to alias "C:\c++" to "Z:" and set BOOST_ROOT to "Z:\" instead. Also seeing some differences in casing ("C:\c++" and "C:\C++"), which _shouldn't_ make any difference under Windows. / Johan _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-build |
