Boost::Python Windows 7 64 Bit

I can't seem to build boost::python correctly on my Windows 7 64Bit machine. It's vanilla 32bit python 2.6.4 in the c:\Python26 directory.

Pastebin is here of the deb开发者_如何学Goug build output : http://pastebin.com/m7d70f13e

Cheers,

Al

On IRC, we have found the following procedure fixes the problem:

1. Open tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam

2. There, locate the following code:

   if [ version.check-jam-version 3 1 17 ] || ( [ os.name ] != NT )
   {
       # Prior to version 3.1.17 Boost Jam's SHELL command did not support
       # quoted commands correctly on Windows. This means that on that
       # platform we do not support using a Python command interpreter
       # executable whose path contains a space character.
       python-cmd = \"$(python-cmd)\" ;
   }
   

3. Remove that code block completely.

I'll create an issue in Boost issue tracker and investigate this.
