Error building Boost 1.50 with bjam on MSVC 2010 - c++

Building Boost 1.50 with bjam on MSVC 2010
I'm trying to build the latest Boost (1.50) using MSVC 2010. I have MSVC 2003 and 2008 installed on the same machine (Windows Vista), and have successfully been able to build Boost 1.50 using both toolsets. However I'm having trouble with msvc 2010.
The following is the bjam command I use after having called bootstap.bat:
bjam --without-mpi --without-python --toolset=msvc-7.1 --build-type=complete -d+2
bjam --without-mpi --without-python --toolset=msvc-9.0 --build-type=complete -d+2
bjam --without-mpi --without-python --toolset=msvc-10.0 --build-type=complete -d+2
When building MSVC 2010, I get the following error messages:

I have very little experience with bjam other than executing the command lines described above. I believe everything is setup correctly, all the compilers are on the PATH environment variable. eg:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin
Furthermore I can't see where in the bjam configs for msvc that the '/Ze' and '/Za' are defined.
Is there something else I'm missing?

Instead of adding the compiler to the path, have you tried launching bjam from Visual Studio Command Prompt (found on your Start Menu)?
I never put anything on PATH - I just run that, go to boost folder, bootstrap and build.

CMake Error: Could NOT find Boost (missing: system filesystem thread log locale regex chrono atomic date_time) (found version "1.75.0")

I am attempting to build and run a c++ program from GitHub, although i keep running into problems presumably with Cmake and the boost libraries. It is the first time i have tried building a program, so there is probably something obvious missing.
The program in question is from the following GitHub repository: https://github.com/antimix/PrusaSlicer. I am opening the folder i Visual Studio Code as an administrator (to remove some other error) with the Cmake and Cmake tools extensions installed. I have installed 1.75.0 Boost from this site: https://boost.teeks99.com/. From the Visual Code terminal I get the following error(s):

I have looked around at some different threads to find a solution but without luck. Most of them revolve around setting the system environment variables for Boost, but it seems that Cmake gives a message that it ignores this variable. I have also found a thread that suggests adding a line in the CMakeLists.txt to set the boost path before loading the libraries (as far as I understand), but none of these things unfortunately helped.
Hope some of you have a solution for this headscratcher...

I removed them, and passed "output redirection" issue.

Build C++ program on Windows with CL (VS Build Tool Compiler)

I try to build program from command line with CL.
Run next command:
CL -I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include" C:\dev\projects\console-interaction-tester\main.cpp
And I caught error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include\crtdefs.h(10): fatal error C1083: ...... corecrt.h: No such file or directory
I tried all flags from VS ouptup, like /nologo /TP /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /GR /EHsc /MDd /Zi /Ob0 /Od /RTC1 /showIncludes but it doesn't work.
I need sample of command, what can ignore UniversalCRT, or instruction how fix path. I wanted to add includes dir with corecrt.h but classic location C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Kits\10\includes doesn't exists!
Install Windows SDK.
Run the VS2017 installer again, and select it (or plainly select the full C++ dev package).

Running Simulink Model that generates C/C++ code for compilation

Currently Matlab is configured with Visual Studio 2010 Compiler. In Addition I checked that the LIBPATH is correctly set from Matlab. I am also running Matlab with administator's permissions.
How can the LINK and NMAKE errors be solved?
Visual Studio Express editions are no longer supported.
When you run mex -setup choose the SDK 7.1 (download here, select x64 compilers during installation).
Also be sure you install the .NET Framework 4.0 runtime.
Big however: With the SDK, there is a bug, where compilers get removed (details from MS)! Check it out here too. The patch is on Microsoft's website.
See this support article for tips on how to download and configure the SDK for MATLAB. Maybe confirm that the compilers were selected in the installation.

Visual Studio from the command line

I am using Visual Studio 2010 to create a small c++ executable. Since I now want to use a different editor I have to call cl.exe and link.exe from the command line.
It is great that VS provides the used command-lines in Project->Properties->C/C++->Commandline and ->Linker->CommandLine
however, they dont work quite like they should:
In the compiler command line I added /c and removed the file-renaming-stuff /Fp /Fa /Fo /Fd (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fwkeyyhe.aspx)
In the linker command line I removed the /MANIFEST and /Manifest
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/y0zzbyt4.aspx)
the result is this:
cl.exe main.cpp /c /Zi /nologo /W3 /WX-
/O1 /Oi /Os /Oy /GL
/D "WIN32" /D "NDEBUG" /D "_CONSOLE" /D "_UNICODE" /D "UNICODE"
/Gm- /EHsc /GS /Gy /fp:precise
/Zc:wchar_t /Zc:forScope /Gd /analyze- /errorReport:queue
link.exe *.obj /OUT:"test2.exe" /INCREMENTAL:NO /NOLOGO
"kernel32.lib" "user32.lib" "gdi32.lib" "winspool.lib"
"comdlg32.lib" "advapi32.lib" "shell32.lib" "ole32.lib"
"oleaut32.lib" "uuid.lib" "odbc32.lib" "odbccp32.lib"
/ALLOWISOLATION /MANIFESTUAC:"level='asInvoker' uiAccess='false'"
/DEBUG /PDB:"F:\prj\visualstudio2010\test2\Release\test2.pdb"
/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /OPT:REF /OPT:ICF
/PGD:"F:\prj\visualstudio2010\test2\Release\test2.pgd"
/LTCG /TLBID:1 /DYNAMICBASE /NXCOMPAT /MACHINE:X86 /ERRORREPORT:QUEUE
The resulting exe works the same way as if i had built it using the GUI, but the problem is that it is 145kb instead of 22kb for some reason. Should I just accept that or is there something obvious that the GUI has and that I am missing?
As an alternative to manually reproducing the individual command line args you can use msbuild.exe to build an entire solution from the command line:
On my machine the command would look like the following:
"c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe" /t:Build /verbosity:minimal /maxcpucount /p:Configuration=Debug;Platform="x64" "C:\path\to\some_sln.sln"
Full documentation on msbuild can be found here.
I would try running that and see if you're getting the exe size you expect.
You can see full build log, including command line switches, in the project output directory, program_name.log file. You can also build the project from command line: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/xee0c8y7.aspx
Actually, it's something the original poster apparently figured out on their own but a critical part of running Visual Studio tools from the command line is to run the following batch file to set your environment variables correctly. Otherwise, you will get an error about missing DLLs, and so on. (This is Visual Studio 2008, Windows 7, but other combinations may be quite similar.)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat
which simply runs:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat
You can compile a C++ project from a command line or .bat file. This works for VS2019:
rem path to Visual studio. No quotation marks:
set vspath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community
rem path to vcvars files
set batpath=%vspath%\VC\Auxiliary\Build
rem set system path
path %batpath%;%path%
rem set all paths and include directories for 64-bit mode compilation
call vcvars64.bat x64
rem compile:
cl [options] test.cpp /Fetest.exe
rem pause to see if compilation succeeds
pause
rem run the compiled program
test.exe
pause
