title: Building basic Boost applications with bjam
body: <p>I can find tons of general purpose documentation on Boost.Build, but surprisingly nothing on how to use it to build simple Boost applications.</p>
  
  <p>I compiled Boost for mingw with bjam, got all the libraries and includes in C:\Boost. Now what would a basic Jamroot file look like to use all this ?</p>
  
  <p>The libs all have complicated names like 'libboost_filesystem-mgw34-mt-s.lib', I'm sure there is some kind of magic switch somewhere to just say 'link against libboost_filesystem' !</p>
