I still have a small problem with 2 directory 

- first one project1 with the given jamfile
make svnrev.h : project1.cpp : svnrev ;
actions svnrev
{
         svnrev -o$(<) $(>)
}
lib project1 : project1.cpp svnrev.h : <implicit-dependency>svnrev.h ;

- second one with the given jamfile
exe main : main.cpp ../project1//project1 ;

If i call bjam -a in the second directory, the svnrev action is not
done ? How can i add a true dependancy between building the lib 
and rebuilding the snvrev.h file ? 

msvc.compile.c++ bin\msvc-7.1\debug\main.obj
msvc.compile.c++ ..\projet1\bin\msvc-7.1\debug\projet1.obj
.....

Thanks
