Dear all,
I'm using BBv2 on Windows XP and I've been having a few problems related tothe limit on the command-line length in one of my projects, which has a relatively high number of dependencies (>15):
1) msvc.compile.c++ started to fail because all the '-I <path>' instructions caused it to exceed the limit. I got away with it by explicitly changing the hardcoded limit defined in 'int maxline ()' (jam_src/execnt.c). Would it be a good idea to use a mechanism similar to the one used for libs (.rsp files)?
2) clean started to fail for the same reason. I solved this removing 'together' in 'common.jam', line 108. Is this the best approach?
Thanks in advance,
Pedro
