what is BOOST_ROOT?

I'm trying to build x64 version of http://code.google.com/p/quickfast/ That's how build scripts use %BOOST_ROOT%:

set SETUP_CHECKING=BOOST_ROOT=%BOOST_ROOT%
if not exist "%BOOST_ROOT%\boost" goto setup_is_bad

includes += $(BOOST_ROOT)/include

set RELEASE_PATH=%QUICKFAST_ROOT%\bin;%QUICKFAST_ROOT%\Output\Release;%MPC_ROOT%;%BOOST_ROOT%\lib;

So build script expects following file/folders:

%BOOST_ROOT%\boost
$(BOOST_ROOT)/include
%BOOST_ROOT%\lib

I've downloaded/builded boost and there are no lib or include folder. That's what my boost folder contains:

C:\bin\boost_1_49_0

Include files are in folder %BOOST_ROOT%\boost
Libraries are in %BOOST_ROOT%\libs

Change your build script accordingly.

Example:

%BOOST_ROOT%: c:\bin\boost_1_49_0
Includes: %BOOST_ROOT%\boost
Libs: %BOOST_ROOT%\stage\lib
