Does it have to be building a library? If the latter, can't we just make that library part of the requirements for a regular link test target? </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1440 Trac 1.4.3 John Maddock Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:54:23 GMT <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1440#comment:1 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1440#comment:1</guid> <description> <p> Dave, </p> <p> That Jamfile tests the auto-linking code: it is very important that the library is not a dependency of the executable, since then we're not testing what we think we are :-( </p> <p> Obviously this Jamfile only makes any sense for Windows compilers that support auto-linking, hence it's not part of status/Jamfile.v2. </p> <p> John. </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <dc:creator>John Maddock</dc:creator> <pubDate>Mon, 14 Jan 2008 16:29:31 GMT</pubDate> <title>status changed; resolution set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1440#comment:2 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1440#comment:2 <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">wontfix</span> </li> </ul> <p> Dave, I'm closing this down now, please reopen if it's still an issue. </p> Ticket
