You'd click on "gcc" in the toolset table (you managed to click the "vc7" toolset and pick a variable there, surely you can do it for GCC :)
Ouch, wasn't this wrong when I did it the first time? :)
Yes, it was wrong when you were trying to find the value for TOOLS, it is right if you're trying to find some toolset-specific variable. It's wrong to use a variable name as a toolset name. It's right to use a variable name as a variable name. Got it? Look: bjam -sTOOLS=gcc -sGCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY=/home/redi/gcc/4.x
But now I see -- I need to specifiy the -- what's it called? -- ^W^W^W^W^W configure the tool first.
Mhmm. Thinking about it -- that's quite different from VC, isn't it? Why?
No, not really: bjam -sTOOLS=vc7_1 -sVC71_ROOT=... Good luck, I'm thoroughly bored with this thread now. jon -- "This Statement is False" (Courtesy of POEE)
