* New feature <relevant> which is automatically deduced in most cases.
* Features which are not relevant do not affect target paths and
do not prevent merging of virtual targets.
* generators.jam: generator.run always returns usage-requirements
to allow usage-requirements in non-top-level generators. This
is necessary because we're using usage-requirements to track
relevance from flags.
* New rule toolset.uses-features to specify features that the rule
checks manually, instead of using toolset.flags. In the future,
we should consider restricting the properties actually passed,
to detect errors.
* Adjust tests to handle the new paths (verified by inspection).
* Add temporary option --ignore-relevance to consider all features relevant
to aid migration.
* New rule property.evaluate-conditional-relevance which helps tracking
relevance in <conditional>.
* Widely scattered changes to use the new interfaces.
It contains so many formatting changes to as make porting things to
Python impossible. I'll cherry-pick the todo and non-formatting changes
soonish.
[SVN r56034]
- Drop separate 'suffix' field in file targets. Store suffix as part of
the name' field. This avoids the need to copy the suffix field and the
name everywhere.
- Do not pass generated targets to constructor of 'action'. Instead,
pass the acton to constructor of target.
[SVN r26778]
* build/targets.jam (generate-realy):
After applying tag, we used to 'temporary' change self.name,
which is horrible. How pass the name to 'construct'.
(construct): New parameter 'name'.
(tag-name): New rule, extracted from basic-target. This needs to be
separate rule so that we can call it from 'stage'. Check for a value of
from '@something' and interpret 'something' as a rule which returns the
new name.
[SVN r26408]
as the first elements of result. Those usage requirements will be combined
with explicitly specified for the main target.
This is yet another step towards making 'main target classes' unnecessary.
* build/generators.jam
(try-one-generator): Check if generator returned usage requirements or not.
(construct): Make sure first element of result is always property set.
(many other methods): Induced changes
* tools/builtin.jam
(exe-target-class, lib-target-class): Remove.
(linking-generator, seached-lib-generator): Compute usage requirements.
(archiving-generator): New class
[SVN r26192]
The targets (both abstract and virtual) used to refer to project there belong
to using the name of Jamfile module corresponding to the project. That was a
bit messy, and whatevet it was necessary to get any project attribute, one
had to call 'project.attribute', which was messy too.
Now, projects are identified by instance of project-target class, and
attributes are obtained via 'get' method in that class.
[SVN r23001]
The used 'CALLER_MODULE' to determine the project where the main target
is to be declared, which did not work if the rule is called from another
module.
Thanks to Zbynek Winkler for the bug report.
* build/project.jam (current): New rule
* test/wrapper.py: New test
* other files: Use 'project.current'.
[SVN r22569]
* new/make.jam
(make): Pass 'default-build' in the right position.
* new/targets.jam
(basic-target): Use empty property-set if no default-build is passed.
(main-target): Use 'raw' to test property-set for emptines. The string
emptyness test that use to be there does not works for property-sets.
[SVN r18440]
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]
for the bug report.

toolset.set-target-variables.
* test/make_rule.py: New test.
[SVN r17543]
plain old lists of properties in most cases where we need property sets.
The changes are too numerous and mostly automatic to comment each one.
[SVN r17305]
* new/builtin.jam: Made 'toolset' and 'variant'
features symmentic. Document and fix the 'variant' rule.

file-target. Eliminate some duplication in setting target
locations.
