如何使用bjam构建boost示例？

Question

Boost library is full of examples and tests and I would like to build them using bjam if possible.

How do I build boost examples with bjam?

PS. I wasn't able to locate proper documentation for this option.

Answer 1

Go to the lib test or example directory where there is a Jamfile and do just

bjam
