https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155 <p> 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". </p> <p> Additional observation: the switch -o file does onyl create empty files. </p> <p> Copy of the original post: </p> <p> Rene, when I run "bjam -n" in the attached project, where "bjam" is built from SVN HEAD, I get: </p> <blockquote> <p> ...found 9 targets... ...updating 5 targets... ...updated 5 targets.. </p> </blockquote> <p> When bjam is some earlier version (3.1.14), I get many interesting command lines. </p> <p> So, it seems current bjam has "-n" broken. Any chance this can be fixed? </p> <p> Thanks, Volodya </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155 Trac 1.4.3 Roland Schwarz Fri, 10 Aug 2007 01:39:16 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">failed_test.tar.bz2</span> </li> </ul> <p> The test project showing the failure </p> Ticket René Rivera Sat, 11 Aug 2007 02:39:15 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1155#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">fixed</span> </li> </ul> <p> (In <a class="changeset" href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/changeset/38590" title="Bring back midding output of -n option.
