I am trying to generate a file to support the qcc/QCC compiler commands
for QNX6. I have copied gcc.jam and made the necessary alterations and
added the line..

using qcc ;

..to user-config.jam. So far so good - I can build the libraries without
problem.

The default compilation command is "QCC" and as this is what I have
substituted in qcc.jam in place of "g++" in the rule 'init'.

QCC will simply call the compiler with user determined defaults (and is
a viable option), but there is plenty of scope for being more explicit.
Let's start with the compiler version. There is a choice of versions
2.95.3 and 3.3.5 called by:

"QCC -V2.95.3" or "QCC -V3.3.5".

I don't seem to be able to figure out from the docs and existing code
how best to specify and call these options.

What do I need to put in user-config.jam?
What is the command line usage?
Do I have to modify qcc.jam to achieve this or is it handled by the rest
of the build system?

Thanks
Jim
