Looking at more of the context of python.jam what you want is to select based on the <architecture> feature. Something like:
if ! [ feature.get-values architecture : $(condition) ] in ia64 || [ feature.get-values python : $(condition) ] in 1.5 1.6 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 { suffix = sl ; } else { suffix = so ; }
I can use '! [ feature.get-values architecture : $(condition) ] in ia64' or I can use '[ os.platform ] != IA64' (I tested the latter during the weekend). Which one is preferable?
I notice though that we don't have pa-risc in the set of architectures: [...] I can add in "hppa" or "parisc". Or do you prefer something else? Similar question for the instruction-set feature. I can add in "pa-risc-1-0", "pa-risc-1-1", and "pa-risc-2-0". Or do you prefer a different nomenclature?
Thank you for the proposal! I think, "parisc" as an architecture is fine. For now, we can test PA-RISC as not ia64, but what if HP-UX is ported to a different architecture? :-) As for the instruction-set, I'm not sure how it is used. Why would we need "pa-risc-1-0", pa-risc-1-1" and "pa-risc-2-0" instead of a single name? Also, while we are at it: can we define OSPLAT for PA-RISC in jam.h: # if defined( __hpux ) && defined( __hppa ) # define OSPLAT "OSPLAT=PARISC" # endif If there are no objections, I can make this change in the trunk.

I don't think this is really the recommended way to determine the platform, is it? Could you check with Volodya?
I "stole" it from tools/build/v2/util/os.jam :
.platform = [ modules.peek : OSPLAT ] ;
I need to distinguish two different architectures of HP-UX: ia64 and PA-RISC.
Looking at more of the context of python.jam what you want is to select based on the <architecture> feature. Something like:

I notice though that we don't have pa-risc in the set of architectures:
# Type of CPU architecture to compile for. feature architecture : # x86 and x86-64 x86 # ia64 ia64 # Sparc sparc # RS/6000 & PowerPC power # MIPS/SGI mips1 mips2 mips3 mips4 mips32 mips32r2 mips64 # : propagated optional ;
