How to build Boost.Python

[Andrew Ayre]

Hi, I can't seem to get the library built, and any help is greatly
appreciated. Here is the info:

Windows XP
Borland C++ Builder 5
Latest Boost source code (downloaded at the weekend)
Windows binary bjam 3.1.11

Command line:

bjam "-sTOOLS=borland" "--with-python-root=C:\Python" "--with-python"
install

Result:


C:\Boost\boost_1_33_1>bjam "-sTOOLS=borland" "--with-python-root=C:\Python"
"--with-python" install
