Someone (John Maddock I think) suggested we use something like a ./configure script which actually configured BBv2 for you -- i.e. edited your site-config.jam and/or user-config.jam file setting the correct/detected/configured toolkits. Might be worth looking at, and might even be interactive (Python anyone? ;) ).
I wrote such a script, and it's there in $BOOST_ROOT. It only works on Unix-like systems, but it handles the simplest cases very well.
Cool! Thanks for the heads up Doug! Might be worth noting in the Getting Started document's section for Unix-like systems... Dave, what do you think? This begs the question though, how hard would it be to come up with something like this for other OSes (Windows, etc.) ? -- Dean Michael C.
