-n option and -o option broken?

Reported by: Roland Schwarz Owned by: René Rivera
Milestone: Boost.Jam 3.1.15 Component: bjam
Version: Boost.Jam 3.1.14 Severity: Problem

Description

As reported by Vladimir Prus, the -n option does not work properly. Details can be seen from the e-mail on the boost-build list. Search for subject: "-n option broken".

Additional observation: the switch -o file does onyl create empty files.

Copy of the original post:

Rene, when I run "bjam -n" in the attached project, where "bjam" is built from SVN HEAD, I get:

...found 9 targets... ...updating 5 targets... ...updated 5 targets..

When bjam is some earlier version (3.1.14), I get many interesting command lines.

So, it seems current bjam has "-n" broken. Any chance this can be fixed?

Thanks, Volodya

(In [38590]) Bring back midding output of -n option. The -o option continues to be broken as it has been for a long time now because of the @ file feature. (fixes #1155)
