I am trying to run a program with Boost MPI, but the thing is I don't have the .lib. So I try to create one by following the instruction at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/doc/html/mpi/getting_started.html#mpi.config
The instruction says "For many users using LAM/MPI, MPICH, or OpenMPI, configuration is almost automatic", I got myself OpenMPI in C:\, but I didn't do anything more with it. Do we need to do anything with it?
Beside that, another statement from the instruction: "If you don't already have a file user-config.jam in your home directory, copy tools/build/v2/user-config.jam there." Well, I simply do what it says. I got myself "user-config.jam" in C:\boost_1_43_0 along with "using mpi ;" into the file.
Next, this is what I've done: bjam --with-mpi
C:\boost_1_43_0>bjam --with-mpi

The Boost C++ Libraries were successfully built!
The following directory should be added to compiler include paths:
C:\boost_1_43_0
The following directory should be added to linker library paths:
C:\boost_1_43_0\stage\lib
C:\boost_1_43_0>
I see that there are many libs in C:\boost_1_43_0\stage\lib, but I see no trace of libboost_mpi-vc100-mt-1_43.lib or libboost_mpi-vc100-mt-gd-1_43.lib at all. These are the libraries required for linking in mpi applications.
What could possibly gone wrong when libraries are not being built?
