* add ".lib" to the target name for libpython. *** This is a kluge!
I don't know why it should be necessary ***, but when I was
inserting debugging code that did
ECHO [ $(target).name ] ;
it would always drop the 2nd digit, e.g. python-2.4 would come out
as "python-2". This change prevented it.
* Fixed spelling and grammar in comments
* Fix the incorrect assumption in capture-output that only one Python
extension will participate (also in tools/build/v2/testing.jam).
[SVN r37215]
** bbv2python branch. **
gcc.jam: build and use import libraries on Cygwin and Windows, but
accept DLL-only linking with prebuilt DLLs.
builtin.jam: fix default-host-os so that <target-os> actually becomes
a functional feature. Improve English in comments
property-set.jam: add str method so we can print them in generator
debugging output.
generators.jam: improved debugging output
build-system.jam: add missing semicolon
python.jam:
* fix cross-NT/CYGWIN build support
* add condition to the build requirements of the python targets
os.jam:
* add the ability to get constants for a particular OS
builtin.jam:
* remove "optional" attribute from host-os
* fix confusing indents
python.jam
----------
* Removed comments about known problems because they make no sense.
* Unified MacOS initialization with NT and *nix
* Updated comment describing init behavior
* Support for passing Python command as first argument
* Removed unused get-python-interpreter and get-python-version rules,
since they can't work with that interface. Working versions of
these will be reinstated for Doug Gregor in the near future.
* When invoking Python to collect configuration info, collect it all at at once.
* When a Cygwin symlink is found by an NT build of bjam, give hints
about where to find the file it points at.
* Lots of refactoring
* Make the logic work plausibly even when no Python executable can be found
darwin.jam
----------
* Simplified logic for setting up FRAMEWORK_PATH
* Corrected logic for setting up -framework option
feature.jam
-----------
* Make feature.defaults, feature.attributes, feature.values, and
feature.get-values resilient to feature names being passed without
grist.
gcc.jam, python.jam, builtin.jam
--------------------------------
* Include some progress volodya has made toward support for <suppress-import-lib>
