Re: [Boost-users] Eclipse integration of bjam

How about this for a constructive suggestion. Before doing the work of figuring out how to best utilize bjam from withing Eclipse, It would be a good idea to familiarized yourself with bjam/boost.build in the way it is most commonly used. If after this, you are comfortable with how it works and still want to do this, I'm sure it would be easy to find a way to invoke from Eclipse. Robert Ramey Deane Yang wrote:

I haven't used eclipse, but I've used bjam. So I'd really expect a LOOOOT of problems.

I second that. And I would advise you to use a real build system instead of bjam to circumvent these problems (no pun intended, guys)... :)

I think these comments are uncalled for. You two are expressing your distaste for Boost Build itself and are not commenting on the original question (which is about using bjam as the build tool within Eclipse). So all you are doing is muddling the discussion.
