How to build boost64 in window with vs2009

When I build the boost and record the process to be not forgotten.

Step1:  Get Source code

Download the source code from : http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/.

If you unzip the the source code "boost_1_37_0.zip" to the folder "boost/boost_1_37_0" then we name that folder as the $boost_home.

Step2: Build bjam.

Later it will use bjam to build the boost.

The bjam source code are in   ( $boost_home/tools/jam/src), you can invoke the build bash script ( $boost_home/tools/jam/src/build.bat)to build it.

After build succeed it will produce 'bjam.exe' the folder  ($boost_home/tools/jam/src/bin.ntx86)

Step3: Build the boost library.

3.1 build the all the libarary

   bjam --toolset=msvc-9.0 --prefix=$lib-and-dll-out-dir64$ address-model=64 --build-type=complete install 

       note:

　　　　1.the toolset is pecified to msvs-9.0 if vs2009. Other value you can specify depending on your vs version( 2005-msvs-7.0)

        2. "address-model=64"  specifies  the win64

　　　　3. " --prefix=$lib-and-dll-out-dir64$" specifies the folder ,that will be install all the library in it

   It will cost a lot of disk space and time. I have cost 3 hours and 10G disk to build all the library.

3.2 build the specify libaray

    bjam.exe --with-date_time address-model=64 toolset=msvc-9.0 variant=release debug threading=multi stage

    note1: "--with-date_time" --> build the "date_time" library. it can be any library you want.

　　　　   2. "threading=multi" ----> to create the library will support muti-thread. ( the library name will with _mt )

　　　　　 3.  The output libaray will in the stage folder.

   It just build the specify library, so it save a lot of time and disk space.
