Hi, seems I need access to the SVN then (CCing the moderators)... dherring@ll.mit.edu wrote:

Thanks a lot for reporting - I wouldn't have noticed this Jamfile gets run for a full build (as I rarely build Boost as a whole - it rebuilds itself from dependent projects). That Jamfile builds pre-preprocessed headers with the default settings, where the target files are part of the library anyway, so I should $ cd /svn/boost/libs/function_types/build/timestamps $ touch arity_loops $ touch encoding $ touch cc_names $ svn commit so nothing needs to be done, unless the configuration changes (creating those files will do for a workaround).
The file <boost>/libs/function_types/build/Jamfile.v2, contains the offending 'chdir'. When 'chdir' is changed to 'cd', the build still fails on line 2.
It doesn't matter, as it seems we're already in the right directory on UNIX. Haven't checked on Windows yet.
Things finally build correctly with a
bjam --layout=system --with-wave -q
And there should be a <dependency> to build the Wave tool. Is there a way to *only* build the dependency if something needs to be done (IOW targets are outdated or do not exist)? Cross-posting to the Boost.Build list for this question. Thanks y'all, Tobias
