Boost-Build :

I'm using Boost.Build successfully in an embedded project.

I would like to define an additional transformation for stripping my
executables. What would be the best way?

I'm debugging my applications remotely using gdbserver. My scenario:
- my executables get built with debug information
- copy and strip the executables (with i386-linux-strip)
- transfer the stripped executable to the embedded system and debug;
the original executable is needed on my PC to provide the debugging
informations.

Questions:
- The two kinds of executables have the same name (with no extension
as it is common under linux), but live in different directories.
Can Boost.Build handle that?
- How can I define an additional transformation and where should I put
it?

Regards, Peter
