Hmm, not sure yet what this means for regression testing on cygwin/mingw.
You can set up your user-config.jam so a bjam built under Windows will can build/test both windows and cygwin python extensions. Just pass <target-os>cygwin in the "condition" parameter to "using python..." for the cygwin python installation.
using python ; # windows installation using python : : /usr/bin/python2.5 : : : <target-os>cygwin ;
when you put target-os=cygwin in your build request, it should build with the cygwin version of python:
bjam target-os=cygwin toolset=gcc
Does this mean, that invoking bjam with toolset=gcc from CMD.EXE (where gcc is the cygwin or more correctly: cygming version) will now build against the MSVC.DLL's by default? (I.e. pass on the -mno-cygwin switch to the compile and link stages). Hmm, this would mean I should run my regression setup unaltered...? http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/CVS-RC_1_34_0/speedsnail-g... Roland
