This should be:
-      <toolset><hp_cxx>:<build>no ]
+     <toolset>hp_cxx:<build>no ]

NOTE: properties are a set of ( feature, value ) tuples where you say 
<feature>value to add a feature value. You can restrict this by saying 
<condition>cond:<feature>value, where <condition>cond is a ( feature, value 
) tuple that, if true, <feature>value is applied to the build.

Thus, in your example <toolset>hp_cxx is the condition checking for ( 
toolset, hp_cxx ) and <build>no is the feature to set. Thus, you could have:

   <os>NT:<define>WIN32

HTH,
