<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>Boost.Build's <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/">msvc</a>
toolset supports the Microsoft Visual C++ command-line tools on
Microsoft Windows. It supports any version of Visual C++, but in case
you have more than one version of Visual C++ installed, and you want
to use both, the additional <a href="vc7-tools.html">vc7</a> toolset
can be used for Visual C++ 7.0.
<h2><a name="configuration">Configuration Variables</a></h2>
The <code>msvc</code> toolset responds to the following variables, which can be set in the
environment or configured on the jam command-line using
<code>-s<i>VARIABLE_NAME</i>=</code><i>value</i>:
<table border="1">
<tr><th>Variable Name <th>Semantics <th>Default <th>Notes
<tr>
<td><code>MSVC_ROOT</code>
<td>The path to the MSVC installation directory
<td><code>c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Microsoft&nbsp;Visual&nbsp;Studio\VC98</code>
<td>If <code>MSVCDir</code> is set in the environment, the toolset
will assume <code>VCVARS32.BAT</code>has already been called, and
will ignore this variable.
<tr>
<td><code>VISUALC</code>
<td>The path to the MSVC installation directory
<td><code>c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Microsoft&nbsp;Visual&nbsp;C++\VC98</code>
<td>If <code>MSVCDir</code> or <code>MSVC_ROOT</code> is set in
the environment, the toolset will assume
<code>VCVARS32.BAT</code>has already been called, and will ignore
this variable.
