This requires that we be able to update some targets before we've finished reading all Jamfiles, and is not supported at the moment.
Is it a bad idea to think about using a recursive bjam invocation for this sort of thing? That is, configure.run-test could invoke bjam to update the target associated with have_dlopen.
This is possible, but I'm concerned about performance implications of this. It's quite feasible to have 100, or 200 tests, running separate bjam for each one might be too slow.
You could run one bjam for all the tests
Maybe updating targets in the middle will be easier.
Maybe; seems dicey to me. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
