I would expect the following patch to better reflect your intention. After all, the output of quickbook actually does not depend on autodoc at all, it's the output of boostbook that depends on it. Ok to commit?
What patch?
Doh! Attached now.

Wouldn't that only create the necessary dependency when the docs are built "standalone"?
Looking at doc/Jamfile.v2, I see: <dependency>../libs/xpressive/doc//autodoc.xml so I suppose everything is in shape.
This doesn't seem right to me. I think I said what I meant to: that the xml rule invocation depends on the doxygen one.
How can it depend if the qbk -> xml process does not use the autodoc result in any way.
Could you also explain how simply making one rule invocation depend on another breaks the build?
Because quickbook.jam has a bug? Which bug certainly can be fixed, but using <dependency> in Jamfile like this does not seem right to me either.
Why should that be? And what's up with that error message:
error: Unable to find file or target named error: 'object(file-target)@427' error: referred from project at error: '/home/ghost/Work/Boost/boost/tools/quickbook'
That's awful. How's anyone supposed to make any sense of that?
Just like how anyone is supposed to make any sense of failed assert in a C++ program? Not all errors can be made cristal clear, quickbook.jam in particular is deep wizardy. - Volodya
