Hi,
when I built bjam on cygwin via ./build.sh, I get this message:
.cc. bin.cygwinx86/yyacc.exe
.cc. bin.cygwinx86/mkjambase.exe
.cc. bin.cygwinx86/jam.exe
.link. bin.cygwinx86/bjam.exe
ln: creating hard link `bin.cygwinx86/bjam.exe' to `bin.cygwinx86/jam.exe': No
such file or directory
ln -f bin.cygwinx86/jam.exe bin.cygwinx86/bjam.exe
...failed .link. bin.cygwinx86/bjam.exe...
...failed updating 1 target...
...updated 3 targets...
The "bin.cygwinx86/jam.exe" file exists, so I don't understand the error
message. Everything works if I run
ln -sf jam.exe bin.cygwinx68/bjam.exe
(That is, create a symbolic link). I suspect the problem is that hard links
are not supported by cygwin at all.
Any ideas for a fix?
