Ideally, each sandbox library would contain some logic to detect if project named 'boost' exists, and if not so, to emit clear instructions what to do. I can create a 'template' library in sandbox having such code, if that helps.
If you could fix up the example I created, that would be great. It's at:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/example
I used João Abecasis' script to find boost, but you might be able to do something better?
The question is whether we should? Putting
use-project /boost : some-path ;
in user-config.jam is one-time effort, and is probably more reliable than environment variables anyway.
By the way, what is it possible for user to specify this setting in site-config.jam, so it's easier to have various projects configured to use various versions of Boost installed in user's system? Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net Charter Member of OSGeo, http://osgeo.org
