12128	Stage .pdb Files for Debug and Release - VS2015	Will Bickford <wbickford@…>		"When configuring Boost for VS2015, the pdb files are not copied to the stage\lib folder. Steps to reproduce below. The b2 command should stage the requested pdb files, should it not?

{{{
call bootstrap.bat
b2 variant=debug,release link=shared,static runtime-link=shared --with-date_time --with-thread threading=multi toolset=msvc-14.0 optimization=speed debug-symbols=on architecture=x86 address-model=32
}}}

This produces the following files in stage/lib:

{{{
boost_chrono-vc140-mt-1_60.dll
boost_chrono-vc140-mt-1_60.lib
boost_chrono-vc140-mt-gd-1_60.dll

libboost_thread-vc140-mt-1_60.lib
libboost_thread-vc140-mt-gd-1_60.lib
}}}

I can manually copy the missing .pdb files by running these commands.

{{{
copy /Y bin.v2\libs\thread\build\msvc-14.0\debug\optimization-speed\threading-multi\*.pdb stage\lib\
copy /Y bin.v2\libs\thread\build\msvc-14.0\release\debug-symbols-on\threading-multi\*.pdb stage\lib\
