Ready and waiting...

Negative. The v1 file is only a holding measure. The v2 file needs to be
derived as a sibling of gcc not a child as in v1. There are many
requirements that are not addressed in v1. Much of this has been
discussed in this NG, but to summarise:

qcc supports:

- two compilers GNU gcc & Intel, with versions of both.
- two C++ standard laibraries GNU & Dinkumware with sub-variations
- self hosted (native) compilation on QNX
- cross compilation on Windows & Linux
- mutilple hardware targets: MIPS, PowerPC, SH-4, ARM, StrongArm, Intel®
XScale™ Microarchitecture, and x86

One further requirement is that in order to run the regression tests in
a cross-development environment, bbv2 should support some form of remote
execution. (But that's for later...)

It has been suggested by Reese Dunn (see thread started 3/11/2005) that
the bjam command line options could look something like:

     $ bjam qcc-3.3 architecture=power stdlib=dinkum
     $ bjam qcc-2.95 architecture=x86 stdlib=default

I have already ported a very crude version of qcc.jam for bbv2 that
works, but it is far from complete/perfect. However, we do not have to
implement all the features for v1.34. The "first cut" file is attached.

I thank you for your response. I was was becoming concerned that this
might not be finished in time.

Jim
