Having just built Boost for VS2008 in 64-bit, this is still fresh in my
mind. :)
On the bjam command line, you can tell it which toolset to use:
toolset=msvc-8.0 for VS2005
toolset=msvc-9.0 for VS2008
(I don't know if "msvc-7.1" is correct for VS2003, but it follows the
format.)
If you want to force a 32-bit or 64-bit build, add one of these:
address-model=32
address-model=64
Of course "64" will only work with compilers that support it.)
One other thing that helps a lot: Run the bjam command from a
VisualStudio command prompt for the specific version of VisualStudio.
That will ensure all the necessary environment is setup.

Subject: [Boost-users] How to Compile Boost for All Versions of
Visual Studio
Hello,
I have installed VS 2003, VS 2005 & VS 2008 in my PC. I have
to work on all these versions. When I compile boost, it only compiles
for VS 2008. How do I compile it for all the three IDE`s?
Thanks,
Altaf
