Hi,
I'm just doing my first steps with jam, but have no success. I downloaded
jam binaries for windows from the boost page and extracted them to a folder.
Then I set the following environment variables :
BOOST_BUILD_INSTALLATION=J:\boost-build
INTELC="D:\Program Files\IntelC++\compiler50\ia32"
VISUALC="D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98"
JAM_TOOLSET=INTELC
then I write the following simple Jamfile :
project-root ;
exe MyTestExe : first.cpp
second.cpp
some_more.cpp
;
Executing Jam without parameters I get :
Compiler is Intel C/C++
warning: unknown rule project-root
warning: unknown rule exe
...found 7 targets...
As far as I understand this means that jam does not know what to do with
'project-root' and 'exe'. I think jam should find the required files via
BOOST_BUILD_INSTALLATION !?
could somebody give me a hint in the right direction
greetings
Achim
