That was my original idea but I didn't succeed in having it work with changing sys.path.
Also from what I understand, sys.path specifies to python the list of directories where modules have to be searched. In my case I want to indicate the path to the boost_build dll, not to my python modules, maybe that's why it doesn't work.
Here's what I tried:
import sys
sys.path.append("C:/Program Files/boost/boost_1_38/bin.v2/libs/python/build/msvc-9.0/debug/threading-multi/")
If you have an idea on how I can make it work with sys.path, I'd be happy to try it.
Thanks

I suspect that from inside Python, changing sys.path would be a better approach.
