In other words are the following doable?
bjam "-sTOOLS=vc6_5" install bjam "-sTOOLS=vc7_0" install bjam "-sTOOLS=vc7_1" install
Sure, but the easy way is just to rename the toolset files. But seriously, you really are comfortable with the underscore?
Yes, as an underscore is commonly seen in identifiers throughout boost, stl and C++ for that matter. I (perhaps incorrectly?) view vc6_5, vc7_0, vc7_1 as identifiers in this context as well. Pressing a few extra shift keys once every 4-6 months when installing a new version of boost seems like little overhead to me. ;-) Jeff
