Vladimir, thx for the reply.
Do the projects need to have any specific IDs in order to inherit
properties?
E.g. if in my root folder, in project-root.jam I have something like:

project foo : requirements <hardcode-dll-paths>true ;

And then in a subfolder "bar" I have a Jamfile with

project bar : build-dir ./out ;

How will project bar know to use <hardcode-dll-paths>true ?

Cheers,
K.
