Mark,
thanks for the tip but I can't make it work: it doesn't even seem to reach execnt.c...
I tried to set the variable in the environment, in the command-line and in the Jamfile and neither has worked.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Pedro

I use JAMSHELL=% which makes jam execute the command directly without ashell and has no command line length limit. Of course it does mean that you can't use shell features like redirection and pipes, but it sounds like you're just doing a normal compile so you wouldn't need them anyway.
Mark.

Subject: [jamboost] Command length limit
Dear all,
I'm using BBv2 on Windows XP and I've been having a few problems related to the 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
