The way libs/test/test/Jamfile refers to input files is broken.

there should be no use of $(test-dir).

tests are always run from the directory of the Jamfile.

If this would be the case it should work, I think. Here related part of Jamfile:

########################################

local test-dir = "$(BOOST_ROOT)$(SLASH)libs$(SLASH)test$(SLASH)test$(SLASH)" ;

run ifstream_line_iterator_test.cpp <lib>../build/boost_unit_test_framework : #args : $(test-dir)test_files/ifstream_line_iterator.tst1 $(test-dir)test_files/ifstream_line_iterator.tst2 ;

What is wrong here?

1. It's ugly. 2. I'm not certain that BOOST_ROOT will always be set (though it probably will). -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
