Compilers allow you to disable a warning if you don't want it. The build should do the same. How about a command line, or config file, where I can stick in -Wno-python-not-configured -Wno-regex-unicode-disabled or something, so I can make it be quiet...

In BBv1 there was

"pass --without-python to suppress this message in the future"

in the message. If that's been dropped for v2 it should probably be reinstated.

I don't feel comfortable writing: bjam --without-python --without-regex-icu ... every time I want to build something! However, the inverse would be equally annoying for people who do want these facilities. BBv2 has a user-config.jam file that allows you to configure the various toolsets. If I don't have a "using python ;" decleration in there, it is likely that I don't have Python or don't want to use it. This statement is therefore my --with[out]-python flag. Similarly, with ICU I could have "using icu ;". The documentation should also tell me what optional components (Python, ICU, ZLib) are used by different libraries and how to configure these. - Reece _________________________________________________________________ Try Live.com: where your online world comes together - with news, sports, weather, and much more. http://www.live.com/getstarted
