Some errors when installing boost_1_39_0 and Quantlib 0.9.7
I followed the steps in Dave's posting. Downloaded VC++ 8.0 expression edition on WindowXP. Compiled boost_1_39_0. But I found some libraries were failed to compile. Has anyone experienced same problem? (I had some failed targets when using cygwin g++.) Final summary of compiling boost_1_39_0 follows.
ln-NT stage\lib\libboost_wave-vc90-gd.lib
"NT symlinks not supported yet, making copy"
Could Not Find C:\boost_1_39_0\stage\lib\libboost_wave-vc90-gd.lib

I then installed Quantlib_0.9.7 anyway. There were some errors. Does anyone have similar experience? Thanks.
