(make-qualified): Bugfix. When processing gcc.link.dll rule, take 'gcc' as
module name, not 'gcc.link'. The previous behaviour caused 'gcc.link.dll'
to be called in context of 'gcc.link' module. As the result the global
definition of 'gcc.link.dll' was called. That definition is created by jam
when it sees 'actions gcc.link.dll' and has no executable code associated
with it. So, rule 'gcc.link.dll' was never executed.
[SVN r20009]
- Slow because of the large number of actions and line counting.
- Somewhat kludge behaviour when doing actions outside of the text rule.
- Terse documentation.
[SVN r18870]
- boostrap.jam; Modified the parsing of options to accept the syntax that the help system requires.
- doc.jam; Removed the option parsing code.
- doc.jam; Added some rules to set documentation options.
- help.jam; Move in code from doc.jam to parse options.
[SVN r18798]
* kernel/bootstrap.jam: Allow option handler modules to indicate that
regular build process should be skipped.
* options/help.jam: Return 'true', don't EXIT. Existing prevents header
scanning, which is the mechanism that makes 'doc' module work.
* new/doc.jam: Import header scanning rule into global module.
(split-symbol): Handle the case where the are two modules with the same
name (e.g. V1 stlport.jam and V2 stlport.jam).
[SVN r18663]
metacharacters, Boost.Build misbehaved.
* new/path.jam
(all-parents): Don't use regex to strip path prefix, use a more robust
approach.
* test/bad_dirname.py: New test.
[SVN r18576]
Consequently rolled back the workaround in make_rule.py
* Added new indirect rule invocation module for encoding the module to
invoke a rule from as well as the exact name to invoke it by, and
for subsequent invocation.
* Fixed module __test__ rules so they really do execute in a separate
module. Associated tweaks to __test__ in path.jam
[SVN r18427]
virtual-target.jam.
- Added the missing explicit imports, now that we don't dump
everything into the global module with qualification
- stopped using the feature-space hack for temporary testing states of
the feature module. Instead we move its global variable definitions
to a temporary module.
- the way feature.action was invoking the rule it was being passed was
evil. Now you pass (even local) rules without qualification and
they are invoked in the source module context.
- module __test__ rules are always executed in a separate module, so
that their import dependencies can be separated from those of the
module being tested.
- better reporting of circular module-loading dependencies
implemented.
- minor changes:
property-set.jam: moved .empty initialization to avert circular
load dependency .
symlink.jam: fixed global variable naming.
[SVN r18407]
* Add the missing recursive display of docs when specifying --help-enable-detailed. Using it with --help-all will produce most of the available docs at once.
[SVN r18290]
regex.jam: Provide "escape" routine that escapes a string with certain escape
characters
boostbook.jam: Use print.escape to properly escape argument to "echo" on
Windows and Unix (BoostBook now works on non-Cygwin Windows)
[SVN r18148]
transforming the double-quote character into two single quotes, we transform
it into a correctly-escaped double quote.
- Add an "overwrite" option to print.text that overwrites the file instead of
appending to it.
[SVN r18124]
* new/path.jam
(make-NT, make-UNIX): Convert empty path into "."
* new/project.jam
(path-relative-to-project-location): New rule.
* new/stage.jam
(stage-target-class.construct): Use the above rule.
* new/symlink.jam
(symlink-targets.construct): Call 'set-path' on created
virtual targets.
(ln): Attempts at better handling creating symlinks in
directories.
* new/virtual-target.jam
(abstract-file-target.actual-name): If explicit path was
given, include it in grist.
* test/symlink.py: New test.
* test/test_all.py
Run new test.
[SVN r16889]
attribute which controls where generated targets are put,
much in the same was as ALL_LOCATE_TARGET.
* new/virtual-target.jam
(virtual-target.path): Respect build dir.
(virtual-target.actualize-location): Don't
compute path, but call call instead.
* new/project.jam
(initialize): Set default value for 'build-dir'.
(project-attributes.set): Handle 'build-dir'.
* new/path.jam
(relative): New rule.
* test/build_dir.py: New test.
