Hi, I'm using some of boost's libs in my own projects. Therefore I like to build certain (sub)variants of these libraries from the according library subdirectories to avoid the (quite large) overhead when building from the toplevel boost directory with the --with-<lib> option. Take Boost.Signals as an example. When I build in boost/libs/signals/build using bjam, the subproject (not only signals) seems not to support the stage target so that the resulting binary/ies are build somewhere in boost/bin. Now I would like to create a Jamfile outside the boost source tree which does two things: 1) it builds selected (sub)variants of boost_signals, perhaps using some accordingly named NOTFILE targets, 2) it let's me copy the resulting binary/ies (i.e. libs and dlls) to a specified directory. Unfortunately I seem not to be able to figure out how to do this with bjam, especially how to get the full path of the built binary/ies. I would really like to avoid hardcoding these paths. So any help is appreciated. TIA, aa -- Andreas Ames | Programmer | Comergo GmbH | Voice: +49 69 7505 3213 | andreas . ames AT comergo . com
