BJAM : tracking dependencies
Hello ppl I have some questions about the way bjam implements dependencies tracking. I need a tool that would do this for a project that uses gcc. (it doesn't use gmake and not entire gnu toolset is available) does bjam by iteself parses all the source files, looking for incldues and then parses them to see any updates, or gcc does it? by the way I downloaded bjam sources and wanted to build it and on one machine it gave me absolutely weird results (compilation went fine, but on linking I saw some strange output with strings from registry): ... Compiling... order.c Generating Code... Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 8.00.50727.42 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Command Prompt Here] Settings\Temp\deleteme.r eg "@=Command &Prompt Here" Settings\Temp\deleteme.reg [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Command Prompt Here\command] Settings\Temp\de leteme.reg "@=cmd.exe /k cd %1 " Settings\Temp\deleteme.reg LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory \shell\Command.obj' C:\PAVEL\gnu_tools\tools\build\jam_src> Same shit happend with vs71

You might want to post to the Boost build list to get further details and answers http://boost.org/more/mailing_lists.htm#jamboost.

Bjam does the parsing entirely on its own. Some details in: http://engineering.meta-comm.com/resources/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/jam/us..., and http://engineering.meta-comm.com/resources/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/jam/la....

That is really weird, given that vc8 is what I used to build the binaries for release. Which version are you trying to build? I ask because the sources where restructured some time ago and we no longer use the "build/jam_src" location.
Same ... with vs71
