On SVN trunk, a large number of libraries have V1 Jamfiles. At the same time, there's no tools/build/v1 and we're not testing with V1. Anybody will object if I remove all of them? - Volodya

They were there in the CVS trunk, too.

Please do! - Doug

How do you detect V1 Jamfiles? File ending? Asking because I recently renamed my V2 Jamfiles to just 'Jamfile'... Regards, Tobias

By the fact that there is file called Jamfile.v2 in the same directory ;-) There were a bunch of Jamfiles that required manual inspection, and a large fraction was V1 Jamfiles that were not converted -- mostly in 'example' directories. I have converted some, and now attach the list of Jamfiles that must be converted, but which I did not convert myself. It would be great if authors of affected lib convert those Jamfiles. - Volodya

Yes, I do. I include BBv1 Jamfiles in download packages of Boost.Asio intended for use with older release of boost. My Jamfile.v2 files do not work with 1.33.1 and I haven't had the time or motivation to find out why, as the BBv1 ones work just fine. Therefore please don't remove the ones for asio. Cheers, Chris

For how long are you planning to keep them? - Volodya

I'm afraid I can't say, but probably at least until 1.35 is released. Some development shops have not yet made plans to move from 1.33.1, so I want to be able to run my unit tests and build my examples against that version of boost. (BTW, I just realised that the BBv1 Jamfile for building the boost.system library is also required.) Cheers, Chris

And for thread, too. I revive those Jamfiles. Please let me know when you no longer need them. - Volodya
