Re: [Boost-build] How to get source file pathname?

I tried that.  To illustrate, let's change gcc toolset rule/actions for c++ to:
  
  rule compile.c++ ( targets * : sources * : properties * )
  {
      FOO on $(targets) = $(sources:S=.L) ;
  ...    
  }
  actions compile.c++ bind FOO
  {
      echo $(FOO)
      "$(CONFIG_COMMAND)" $(LANG) -ftemplate-depth-100  $(OPTIONS) -D$(DEFINES) -I"$(INCLUDES)" -c -o "$(<)" "$(>)" 
  }
  
  then test with boost-build/example/libraries/app> bjam gcc -a -d2
  We get the following output:
  ...found 20 targets...
  ...updating 4 targets...
  gcc.compile.c++ ../app/bin/gcc/debug/app.o
  
      echo ../app/bin/gcc/debug/app.L
      "g++"  -ftemplate-depth-100 -O0 -fno-inline  -Wall -g  -I"../util/foo/include" -c -o  "../app/bin/gcc/debug/app.o" "../app/app.cpp" 
  
  ../app/bin/gcc/debug/app.L
  ...
  
  Not the intended:
  ../app/app.L
  
  Cheers,
  Mark
