what is BOOST_ROOT?

I'm trying to build x64 version of That's how build scripts use %BOOST_ROOT%:

set SETUP_CHECKING=BOOST_ROOT=%BOOST_ROOT% if not exist "%BOOST_ROOT%\boost" goto setup_is_bad includes += $(BOOST_ROOT)/include set RELEASE_PATH=%QUICKFAST_ROOT%\bin;%QUICKFAST_ROOT%\Output\Release;%MPC_ROOT%;%BOOST_ROOT%\lib; 

So build script expects following file/folders:

%BOOST_ROOT%\boost $(BOOST_ROOT)/include %BOOST_ROOT%\lib 

I've downloaded/builded boost and there are no lib or include folder. That's what my boost folder contains:

C:\bin\boost_1_49_0 14.03.2012 11:59 <DIR> . 14.03.2012 11:59 <DIR> .. 13.03.2012 16:17 249 856 b2.exe 13.03.2012 16:18 <DIR> bin.v2 13.03.2012 16:17 249 856 bjam.exe 22.02.2012 18:25 <DIR> boost 30.01.2012 21:30 866 boost-build.jam 30.01.2012 21:30 1 054 boost.css 30.01.2012 21:30 6 308 boost.png 30.01.2012 21:30 18 606 boostcpp.jam 30.01.2012 21:30 2 545 bootstrap.bat 13.03.2012 16:17 2 496 bootstrap.log 30.01.2012 21:30 10 324 bootstrap.sh 22.02.2012 18:05 <DIR> doc 30.01.2012 21:30 794 index.htm 29.01.2012 16:58 5 556 index.html 30.01.2012 21:30 298 INSTALL 29.01.2012 16:58 10 423 Jamroot 22.02.2012 18:06 <DIR> libs 30.01.2012 21:30 1 361 LICENSE_1_0.txt 13.03.2012 16:37 4 781 log.txt 22.02.2012 18:28 <DIR> more 13.03.2012 16:17 76 project-config.jam 30.01.2012 21:30 2 757 rst.css 13.03.2012 16:18 <DIR> stage 22.02.2012 18:24 <DIR> status 22.02.2012 18:28 <DIR> tools 

Where can I find x64 boost version that contains lib include and boost folders?

Include files are in folder %BOOST_ROOT%\boost
Libraries are in %BOOST_ROOT%\libs

Change your build script accordingly.

Example:

%BOOST_ROOT%: c:\bin\boost_1_49_0 Includes: %BOOST_ROOT%\boost Libs: %BOOST_ROOT%\stage\lib
