I'm probably doing something wrong, but to chase it I will need docs that I can trust.

Is this reproducible with a simple project?

I'll have a go.

I figured it out. I was trying to use project-config.jam in the top-level directory of my boost installation -- and that file wasn't being read. When I used project-config.jam in my project directory (as the name suggests), it started working.

Here's my problem. Boost.Build is my build tool of choice; I use it to build multiple projects that are not a part of boost. I need somewhere to put information about my computer's specific setup (which toolset, the location of third-party libraries), that will be available to all the builds. In the 1.55 days, I used a single user-config.jam for that purpose. How can I achieve the same result now?

Thanks,
