Boost.Buildmsvc toolset |
Boost.Build's msvc toolset supports the Microsoft Visual C++ command-line tools on Microsoft Windows. It supports any version of Visual C++, but in case you have more than one version of Visual C++ installed, and you want to use both, the additional vc7 toolset can be used for Visual C++ 7.0.
msvc
toolset responds to the following variables, which can be set in the
environment or configured on the jam command-line using
-sVARIABLE_NAME=
value:
Variable Name | Semantics | Default | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
MSVC_ROOT
| The path to the MSVC installation directory | c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++\VC98
| If MSVCDir is set in the environment, the toolset
will assume VCVARS32.BAT has already been called, and
will ignore this variable.
|
VISUALC
| The path to the MSVC installation directory | c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++\VC98
| If MSVCDir or MSVC_ROOT is set in
the environment, the toolset will assume
VCVARS32.BAT has already been called, and will ignore
this variable.
|
MSSDK_ROOT
| The path to the Mircrosoft Platform SDK installation directory | (none) | If MSSdk is set in the environment, the toolset
will assume SetEnv.BAT has already been called, and
will ignore this variable.
