Thanks!

I tried the nightly build. I successfully build bjam for toolset msvc and I am able to compile the examples (after copying bjam to my PATH). But, when I compile my own sources, I get the following error:

$ bjam --version
Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find build system.
---------------------------------------------------------
C:\cygwin\home\Andrej\mbrace\trunk\boost-build.jam attempted to load the build system by invoking

   'boost-build /usr/local/src/boost-build ;'

but we were unable to find "bootstrap.jam" in the specified directory
or in BOOST_BUILD_PATH (searching /usr/local/src/boost-build).

Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'.

I have a boost-build.jam file in the root directory of my project with the single line as suggested in the documentation:

$ cat ../../boost-build.jam
boost-build /usr/local/src/boost-build ;

$ ls /usr/local/src/boost-build
boost-build.jam  boost.png  boost_build.png  bootstrap.jam  build  build-system.jam  contrib  debian  doc  example  hacking.txt  index.html  jam_src  kernel  notes  options  site-config.jam  test  timestamp.txt  tools  user-config.jam  util

What am I doing wrong???

Thank you,
Andrej
