[Boost-build] Boost build v2 - duplicate mkdir directives - 2nd fails

Hello,

 

I am seeing a problem with v2 that is resulting in two commands to mkdir
for the same directory which causes the second to fail since it reports
that the directory exists.

 

$ bjam --version

Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 11)

Boost.Jam 03.1.13

 

$ bjam -n

MkDir1 bin

 

    mkdir "bin"

 

MkDir1 bin\gcc-default

 

    mkdir "bin\gcc-default"

 

MkDir1 bin\gcc-default\debug

 

    mkdir "bin\gcc-default\debug"

 

MkDir1 bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static

 

    mkdir "bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static"

 

MkDir1 bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static\runtime-link-static

 

    mkdir "bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static\runtime-link-static"

 

MkDir1
bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi

 

    mkdir
"bin\gcc-default\debug\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi"

ain.o" "main.cpp" 

 

MkDir1 y:\ORCLE\DataRecorder\build\dataRecorder\bin

 

    mkdir "y:\ORCLE\DataRecorder\build\dataRecorder\bin"

 

...

 

 

The first and last mkdir above appear to be the reason for the problem I
am seeing.  If I run the build again after the failure, since the bin
dir is now created, it succeeds.

 

I am using the global build dir feature so that all my build artifacts
are in the same tree where I run the bjam exe.

 

Any help with this matter would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Chris
