Re: [boost] [Boost-testing] Running regression tests for msvc-14.2 (preview)

Success!!! After this was merged: https://github.com/boostorg/build/pull/401 I'm getting successful builds on develop :-) C:\Python27-32\python.exe run.py --runner=teeks99-msvc142rc --toolset=msvc-14.2 --bjam-options="-j4 address-model=64" --tag=develop user-config.jam using msvc : 14.2 ; using python : 2.7 # version : C:\\Python27-32\\python.exe # Interperter/path to dir : C:\\Python27-32\\include # includes : C:\\Python27-32\\libs # libs : <address-model>32 <address-model> # conditions ; using python : 2.7 # version : C:\\Python27-64\\python.exe # Interperter/path to dir : C:\\Python27-64\\include # includes : C:\\Python27-64\\libs # libs : <address-model>64 # conditions ; https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-msv... Now we need to get the tests to all cycle, then merge to master? Can this make 1.70? On Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 8:39 PM Tom Kent wrote:

I was hoping to start running regression tests for the upcoming Visual Studio 2019 (toolset 14.2) and got stumped by an issue. I've set a user-config.jam: using msvc : 14.2 ;

Is this toolset even supported?

As I explained in https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2019/02/245143.php, I had to 'fake' it as 14.1 in project-config.jam:

using msvc : 14.1 : "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual

Studio\\2019\\Preview\\VC\\Tools\\MSVC\\14.20.27323\\bin\\HostX64\\x64\\cl.exe"

I was able to get the regression tests to run using this workaround in user-config.jam.

Here's what the config_info is:

I'm disappointed that we can't have general support for future versions of msvc. We don't seem to have this problem with pre-release versions of GCC/Clang.

I've also gotten a run through with the new "rc" that came out today:
