Description
On the page http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/more/getting_started/windows.html in section 5.2.4, there are a command showed how to install the library: C:\WINDOWS> cd C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_37_0 C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_37_0> bjam More? --build-dir="C:\Documents and Settings\dave\build-boost" More? --toolset= --build-type=complete msvc stage
In fact it doesn't work. the last part should be "--toolset=msvc --build-type=complete stage"

Um. Yeah. This command will actually work as long as the msvc toolset is initialized in user-config.jam, though.
