emacs compile buffer doesn't recognize the error. I decide to customize an error parser. The advice how to do it (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1011364/teach-emacs-recognize-boost-test-errors).
My question is how to get full path to Function.cpp.
In example above it is d:/trash/libraries/test/Function.cpp. The bjam was started from d:/trash/libraries/
