a) the VC 7.1 errors are most likely due the fact that bjam cannot be counted upon to detect dependent changes. I had the same problem on my own VC 7.1 system and had to explicitly rebuild the library to get the error to go away.
Grr, Robert please stop saying that. It is reliable, as long as the dependencies are regular '#include <>' and '#include ""'. So if you think it's not handling those cases please point out where so we can fix it. If you think it should handle other cases please also point those out so we can add support for them.
b) demo_load_xml is surely due to the fact that it is run before demo_save_xml - this will disappear as well.
I was going to ask about this when I thought I'd isolated the problem. I'm working in the tests and have recently noticed that these two tests,
[ test-bsl-run_files test_class_info_save ] [ test-bsl-run_files test_class_info_load ]
sometimes don't appear to obey these,
DEPENDS test_class_info_load_text_archive.run : test_class_info_save_text_archive.run ;
It seems that there is different behaviour on different machines.
No. As was pointed out before that DEPENDS has no effect as you need the real target names, which those aren't. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - Grafik/jabber.org
