Figuring out the correct magic incantation to compile the C++ boost library with Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 is somewhat of a magical trip. It is even worse if you want to include bzip for compression access. Add on top of that wanting to have x86 and x64 versions and you have a mess!
Here is what I was able to figure out:
First download Bzip from http://bzip.org/ and uncompress the source code.
then inside of the visual studio tools command prompt (the 64 bit version for 64 bit and 32 for 32 bit) run the following commands:
.\bjam.exe -s NO_COMPRESSION=0 -s NO_BZIP2=0 -s BZIP2_SOURCE=<path-to-bz> --stagedir=.\stage\x64 --toolset=msvc-12.0 architecture=x86 address-model=64 -j8 --build-type=complete
and
.\bjam.exe -s NO_COMPRESSION=0 -s NO_BZIP2=0 -s BZIP2_SOURCE=<path-to-bz> --stagedir=.\stage\x86 -j8 --build-type=complete
If you are using a different version of visual studio, the toolset will be different. This site has the version numbers.
Good luck, and after you get it compiled remember, here be dragons
