== Version 5.0.0
This is a new era in B2. The drive of this new major version is to move the
core build system from being implemented in Jam to {CPP}. This initial release
does is only a start in this move by having some minimal aspects implemented
in {CPP} using a new Jam/{CPP} native binding system. Even though this is a
major release, the goal is to still have backward compatibility for existing
project build files. But that backward compatibility is not guaranteed for
other Jam files.
* *New*: Support for Jam native variant values of string (original Jam value
type), number (floating point numbers), and object (instances of classes).
