Q: 

build boost library

i have boost librray 1.44.0 how can i build it?i am using visual studio 2010 thanks

A: 

You can use the tool bjam.exe (just search for it in the www and download it). When downloaded and extracted, just type bjam toolset=msvc-10.0 --build-type=complete stage from the windows console in your boost directory. Then reference the include and lib directories within Visual Studio:

  • Include: boost_1_44_0 (plus possibly boost_1_44_0\boost)
  • Lib: boost_1_44_0\stage\lib
