Re: [boost] Just another GSoC project idea: Create a Bjam clone based on the Boost libraries

1. Write a parser for the most important rules (exe, lib and so on) based on Boost.Spirit 2. Use the parser's actions to create a dependency tree based on Boost.Graph 3. Attach Python functions to the nodes in the dependency tree based on Boost.Python 4. Implement Python functions for one toolset (like g++)

What about using that parser to create a tool that would transform bjam files into different files (ninja, make, cmake, etc.)? That would be very useful in order to integrate Boost libraries into existing projects. --Edouard
