Hello MPL experts,

I want to code a state machine which has a reaction list containing
more than 50 entries.

I found here [http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/mpl/preprocessed/]
some python scripts to generate header files for lists containing more than
50 entries.

But I cannot manage to generate a single header file. Can someone please
explain to me how to use these scripts? I also didn't find any help in boost
documention.

Command line messages of the related script were also not helpful for me:
preprocess_list.py

Usage:
         preprocess_list.py <mode> <boost_root> [<source_file>]

Purpose:
         updates preprocessed version(s) of the header(s) in "boost\mpl\list\aux_\preprocessed" directory

Example:
         the following command will re-generate and update all 'apply.hpp' headers:

                 preprocess_list.py all f:\cvs\boost apply.cpp

What is the meaning of [<source_file>] here? And how/where do I have to
specify the count of list entries in order to generate the header files "list60.hpp",
"list70.hpp" and so on?

Thanks for any help you could provide.


Regards,
Klaus
