[Boost-users] Cannot build 1.76.0 for Windows (wrong path to compiler)

[Andreas Tscharner via Boost-users]

Hello World,

I try, according to the "Get started guide"

>bootstrap.bat



set "B2_CXX=%CXX% ..."
with
set "B2_CXX="%CXX%" ..."

in tools\build\src\engine\config_toolset.bat

After that I have the following problem:

D:\Projects\development\QUARTIS-related\boost>.\bootstrap.bat
Building Boost.Build engine
LOCALAPPDATA=C:\Users\ATs\AppData\Local

[vcvarsall.bat] Environment initialized for: 'x64'
###
### Using 'vc142' toolset.
###


Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden.




Please note the different number after "MSVC"

What is the problem? How can I fix this?

TIA and best regards
        Andreas

in the main boost directory. I get an error, because "C:\Program Files(x86)" ... contains a space and is not double quoted.
