There any many users of Windows XP. For them, the Windows XP Lifecycle ends at 08 Apr 2014. I see no reason to introduce any problems with WinXP compatibility before this date. On the other hand, I see no reasons to keep WinXP supported by default after it's official death.
Ok, sounds reasonable. I changed the default back to XP.
Hi Andrey,
I was wondering if we don't need here a different toolset on bjam so that we can deliver both the XP and the Vista libraries.
Apologies if I missed some important parts of the thread.
Yes, that idea was mentioned, although I don't think the whole new toolset is required. I agree this would be a useful feature, but I don't plan doing this. At least, not in the near future. Boost.Build is just too complicated for me to do this easily. I wonder what you think about this idea: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/245407 I'm considering changing to this approach in trunk.
