[1.34.0] Documentation/Script updates needed in various libraries

Hi, The following list was compiled by Vladimir Prus (Thanks!). It shows files that potentially need updating with respect to the build v2 transition. Could the respective library authors please check and report back. Thanks Thomas

Actually, I've been trying to update these scripts to work with V2 but lately with no success. I'm still not sure what I want to do with them. I use them all the time to test my stufff and provided them for other's to use to test their new archives. But I doubt anyone else has every used them for this purpose. They also depend on existence of "compiler_status.exe" or better yet compiler_status2.exe. But it seems that at least the latter doesn't like the v2 bin structure so I've been trying to fix that...... Robert Ramey

IIUC they are broken as of now and we are running out of time to fix them. Can you just yank them from 1.34.0? We can always reintroduce them later. Thanks Thomas -- Thomas Witt witt@acm.org

Actually recent versions of process_jam_log and compiler_status work fine when run with a "--v2" flag. Cheers, Nicola Musatti

Is there some instruction somewhere that explains how the options have changed, etc? I'm completely clueless on how the text in mine needs to be updated... Jeff

http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/differences_to_v1/build... describes the most important differences. Other than that, http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html#bbv2.reference.co... is the complete command line syntax, and if you want to refer to configuring toolsets, there: http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html#bbv2.reference.in... http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference/tools.html Hope this helps, and if you've more question, please post them to boost-build ML. Thanks, Volodya

Both files have been deleted roughly a week ago. -- Andreas Huber When replying by private email, please remove the words spam and trap from the address shown in the header.

Probably my bad. Vladimir postet this as a reply to the last status report. It took a while to sink in that most developers probably won't read it there ;-) Thanks! Thomas -- Thomas Witt witt@acm.org
