#13582: what does $(>) mean?
------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  anonymous         |      Owner:  Vladimir Prus
     Type:  Support Requests  |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  build
  Version:  Boost 1.67.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------------
 I notice below logic in tools/build/src/tools/gcc.jam
 actions link.dll bind LIBRARIES
 {
     "$(CONFIG_COMMAND)" -L"$(LINKPATH)"
 -Wl,$(RPATH_OPTION:E=-R)$(SPACE)-Wl,$(RPATH) "$(.IMPLIB-COMMAND)$(<[1])"
 -o "$(<[-1])" $(HAVE_SONAME)-Wl,$(SONAME_OPTION)$(SPACE)-Wl,$(<[-1]:D=)
 -shared $(START-GROUP) "$(>)" "$(LIBRARIES)" $(FINDLIBS-ST-PFX) -l
 $(FINDLIBS-ST) $(FINDLIBS-SA-PFX) -l$(FINDLIBS-SA) $(END-GROUP) $(OPTIONS)
 $(USER_OPTIONS)
 }

 And then I google and find $(>) will be "expanded to a list of source
 files". Refer to the source files, they are absolute path? is there any
 means to use relate path?
