Hello,

I'm a boost newbie fumbling my way through boost building.  I'm having
trouble getting the BoostBook doco building on my machine.  I suspect the
problem is that I'm trying to set it up on a PC that doesn't have internet
access and the tool is trying to get stuff from www.boost.org but I amy be
completely wrong.

I've been following the directions in
<local_boost_dir>\boost_1_33_0\doc\html\boostbook.html (on a WinXP system).
I've got as far as
<local_boost_dir>\boost_1_33_0\doc\html\boostbook\setup\manual.html at the
end of the section "Configuring local DocBook XSL and DTD distributions".
When it comes to building the Boost.Function library documentation to test a
build that doesn't need doxygen - that's when it boms out.  I have noticed
that when I try to open the function.xml or other XML file in this directory
(<local_boost_dir>\libs\function\doc) with any tool that interprets XML I
get an error something like "Unable to open resource
http://www.boost.org/tools/boostbook/dtd/boostbook.dtd";.  These files have
links to this DTD in them.

Attached is the user-config.jam file I'm using.

Am I in the right ball-park?  Does the doc building tool require internet
access?  Perhaps I haven't set up the user-config.jam file properly?

Thanks,
Steve Wawryk
