c:/boost/tools/build/v2/build\configure.jam:145: in builds-raw *** argument error * rule UPDATE_NOW ( targets * : log ? : ignore-minus-n ? )
I've seen this inscrutable message too ;-) and had to rebuild bjam to get anything going again. C:/user> bjam -v should show Boost.Jam Version 3.1.19. OS=NT. (not 18)
*Sigh*. Adding the extra argument was apparently a very bad decision on my part. Build bjam from the source included with 1.45.
I'm sure the intention was good, but the result and/or release notes didn't produce a BIG ENOUGH warning. (Or it is that one should *always* rebuild bjam in case?) Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
