Is there a parameter to build without compiler version info in the target library name?

By default, the compiled library have a name like: libboost_thread-gcc41-mt.a but I don't want the gcc41 information in the name as I may need modify my makefile to switch to another environment with gcc4.3. So is there a parameter in bjam to suppress the compiler version info in target library name? Or how will you solve this kind of problem?

Compiling the boost library with --layout=system option? Hint: Try bjam --help in the root directory of the library tree. -- _________________________________________ _ _ | Roland Schwarz |_)(_ | aka. speedsnail | \__) | mailto:roland.schwarz@chello.at ________| http://www.blackspace.at
