I have setup BoostBook on my system following the instructions at Boost in the BoostBook documentation. I attempted to generate documentation for one of the sandbox projects, going to the dandbox project's libs/doc directory and executing bjam --v2 there. I received a message saying that "error: Did not find Jamfile or project-root.jam in any parent directory." But I can clearly see a Jamfile in the sandboxes root directory. Does anybod have any idea what has gone wrong ?
I had to put a Jamfile.v2 to "connect" my sandbox boost to the "main" boost. My directory structure is:
<main_boost_root> bin.v2 Jamfile.v2 //main Jamfile.v2 ... sandbox torjo boost-root ... lje Jamfile.v2 //connecting Jamfile.v2 boost fields_visitation libs fields_visitation doc Jamfile.v2 fields_visitation.xml
The contents of connecting Jamfile.v2 is:
project boost : requirements <include>. <include>../torjo/boost-root : usage-requirements <include>. <include>../torjo/boost-root ;
I realized after I posted my message that the Boost snadbox has a Jamfile but no Jamfile.v2. I do not know jamfile syntax. How does this Jamfile.v2 just above connect to the Jamfile.v2 in the boost root ? I will take it for granted it does and use it without the torjo lines, and hopefully that will work.
but I should change that since I'm no longer using torjo's rangelib. Anyway, it worked for me now. However, I also remember making some changes to boostdoc which allowed building docs in a:
<boost-root>/libs/<library>/doc
directory instead of in the:
<boost-root>/doc
directory. The changes were described by Joao in post with headers:
Thanks, I will look for that message.
