3) What is my $HOME directory? The boost-sandbox\libs\typeof\doc?
Sorry, that was a Unix-ism. Just
set HOME=%HOMEPATH%
Actually, I think that this should be:
set HOME=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
Done.
I tried to create a regression test for this, but I couldn't get the test system to pass environment variable settings down to the invoked bjam process.
Do we really need these environment vars? I just put boost-build.jam (as documentation suggests) into my \projects folder, and everything below \project detects boost.build perfectly. I really hate making system-wide changes, like setting environment variables globally. Andrey
