I apologize in advance. I can not figure out how to get tests to build and run correctly from within subdirectories. The --builddir option does not seem to be honored, and the Jamfiles are so "simple" that I haven't a clue as to what is happening.
You have to tell us something about what you tried and what response you got.
To be honest, I have made several attempts at using bjam, but the only thing I can get to work is a toplevel make of everything. So, for all my own stuff, I have been using a mirror hierarchy and Makefiles (since that is what I have been using for the last 2 decades).
However, I now want to get some code ready for submission (I have moved type_id and in the process have written a dynamic library wrapper as well). Unfortunately, I can not get my tests to integrate very well within boost. Thus, I humbly ask for any pointers and/or assistance in this regard.
most tests can be built with bjam test but as I said, we may need more info about your particular problem. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
