Compiling a specific boost library

I only require a single .lib and .dll but I don't want to go through compiling process of all using bja开发者_C百科m.exe How can i do that?

to compile specific library you just need to specify it with --with-library option, e.g. --with-date_time, more info here

You can use the bcp tool to create just the subset of Boost that you need.
