[...]1. The most important problem of Boost.Build is lack of suitable documentation. I don't know whether my presentation from BoostCon 2011 is anywhere linked from boost.org. Given that the lack of documentation is indeed a huge problem, maybe this helps a bit: https://raw.github.com/boostcon/2011_presentations/master/mon/Boost.Build.pd... Thank you Boris!
Simply put, this is by far the most friendly introduction to understanding of the language and libraries of Boost.Build that I have ever read. aaaaa... not quite. You should take a look at Boris's book on Boost http://xmlpress.net/publications/boost/ Robert Ramey
That book is a friendly book on boost C++ libraries. I was talking about bjam language and Boost.Build as a library of bjam functions. AFAICT the book has very little to say about boost build, except for what you really need to get going. So I think you may have misread my posting. The book is great though.
I didn't misread it - I was expanding on it by adding useful related information. Robert Ramey
