Re: [Boost-build] Create "pseudo library" from collection of objects

Another similar way could be:

rule objects ( name : sources + )
{
    local t_list = ;
    for o in $(sources)
    {
        local t =  $(o:B) ;
        obj $(t) : $(o) ;
        t_list += $(t) ;
    }
    alias $(name) : $(t_list) ;
}

and use like this:

objects pseudo_lib : [ glob src/*.cpp ] ;

best regards,

Jorge
