Hi Roger,

I've got a Jamfile like this:

Main my_server : my_file.cpp ;

LinkLibraries httpd_server : my_library ws2_32.lib ;

ws2_32.lib is a system library.

Jam says that it can't build the project, since it doesn't know how to build ws2_32.lib. How do I tell jam that the file exists?

Don't add system libraries to your dependency graph. Use LINKLIBS or NEEDLIBS instead..

Regards,
