Hi, I am having few problems on CygWin with latest boost CVS snapshot. I am building project with a number of dlls, and I need a way to run program easily. I tried hardcode-dll-paths=true, but it does not seem to work on CygWin, so I decided to use stage rule to copy all binaries in top/bin folder. First problem was that CP variable is empty and copying of the dlls failed. I worked around this one with bjam -sCP=cp. BTW, was not it supposed to be relinked rather then copied? Next problem was with exe file. Stage failed with following errors: ----------------- /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/stage.jam:97: in object(stage-exe-gener tor)@1.run *** argument error * rule object(file-target)@174.depends ( d + ) * called with: ( ) * missing argument d /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/virtual-target.jam:86:see definition of rule 'object(file-target)@174.depends' being called /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/generators.jam:638: in try-one-generato /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/generators.jam:885: in construct-withou -caching /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/generators.jam:937: in generators.const uct /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/stage.jam:56: in construct /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/targets.jam:604: in object(stage-target class)@3.generate /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/targets.jam:386: in generate-really /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/targets.jam:363: in object(main-target) 3.generate /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/targets.jam:182: in object(project-targ t)@1.generate /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/build-system.jam:140: in load /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/modules.jam:171: in import /cygdrive/c/work/boost1/tools/build/new/bootstrap.jam:41: in boost-build /cygdrive/c/work/pricing/boost-build.jam:13: in module scope ------------------ One more thing. Suppose I want to install all dlls to bin subfolder of project root. I tried to define path-constant in project-root, and then in one of subprojects apply stage on target and supply path from that path-constant. I end up with dll being copied into bin subfolder of subproject, rather then root. Is it expected behavior? My workaround was to put all stage rules in root Jamfile. - Kirill
