So that dependency analysis works with Boost.Build without yet more special case kludges ;-) And so that people with smart text editors can select the include file and open it directly. And so that other people reading the code have a chance at understanding it.
;-)
I still prefer having an appropriate include path set by the build system. However, the OP asked how to #include files with macro-ized names...
True... But this is a list about the Boost Libraries. If it was a general question perhaps c.l.c++ is a better forum.
The code above looks like a copy-and-paste solution (given the project has more than one platform dependent translation unit). But while we're at it: it's probably not too bad of an idea to have BOOST_PLATFORM_<PLATFORM> or something like that defined by Boost.Config to normalize between the different name/underscore combinations there are (see boost/config/select_platform_config.hpp)...
Absolutely, and I'm already working on it. See the wiki for some notes about that <http://tinyurl.com/p4hb3>. I have more up to date notes that I've gathered as I try to implement those changes. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
