Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #9304: Clean up bjam vs b2 in Boost Build documentation https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304 <p> In <a href="http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_47_0.html">Boost 1.47</a>: </p> <blockquote class="citation"> <p> The official name of Boost.Build executable was changed to b2. </p> </blockquote> <p> The current documentation, however, does not indicate this change and it still refers to bjam command in numerous places. Note, the *tools/build/v2/doc/history.qbk* files does not mention the renaming either. </p> <p> I have discussed this issue in <a class="ext-link" href="http://lists.boost.org/boost-build/2013/10/27064.php"><span class="icon">​</span>bjam vs b2</a> thread on the boost-build list. </p> <p> Here is patch with attempt to add the missing clarification and replace old references to <strong>bjam</strong> with either <strong>Boost Build</strong> or <strong>b2</strong>, depending on the context. </p> <p> By the way, which should be preferred in the documentation, <strong>Boost Build</strong> or <strong>Boost.Build</strong>? Currently, both forms are mixed randomly. </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304 Trac 1.4.3 Mateusz Loskot Fri, 25 Oct 2013 19:23:39 GMT attachment set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">bjam-b2-docs-cleanup.patch</span> </li> </ul> <p> Patch with bjam vs b2 clean up </p> Ticket Vladimir Prus Mon, 18 Nov 2013 06:05:57 GMT status changed; resolution set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9304#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/86745" title="Update docs to use 'b2' everywhere.
