Do you mean that bjam V2 does not support the toolsets that bjam V1 supports ?
There's no bjam v2, only Boost.Build v2, but yeah, BBv2 doesn't support all the same toolsets as v1 yet.
If this is the case, certainly it should be documented.
You seem to overlook the fact that BBv2 is pre-release software. It isn't reasonable to expect it to have complete documentation or support for everything in v1 yet. We're going to get it to support the same toolsets as v1 does before it is released.
OK, I certainly didn't realize this. I will stick with version 1 until version 2 is completed and ready for use. I do think, for those who want to try it, that the documentation should always be updated with a list of which toolsets are supported; otherwise it is a guessing game with which compilers it works as the natural asssumption, given no list, is that it works with the same set of compilers as version 1.
