Hi,

It doesn't work.

I have added to msvc.jam:

rule compile.c++ ( targets + : sources * : properties * )
{
common.response-file $(targets) : $(sources) : $(targets[2]) : $(properties) ;
}   

I have changed in msvc.jam:

actions compile.c++
{
$(.CC) /Zm800 -nologo -TP -U$(UNDEFS) $(CFLAGS) $(USER_CFLAGS) -I"$(INCLUDES)" -c -Fo"$(<:W)" "$(>:W)"
}

I have added to common.jam:

rule response-file ( targets + : sources * : the-response-file : properties* )
{
....
print.text [
[ on $(targets[1])
return -D$(DEFINES)
] ] ;
}

I got the following error message:

$ bjam msvc debug
