Re: [Boost-build] boost-build support for pre-built boost libraries?

Volodya,

yet another question:

Why use a different mechanism for python, qt and boost pre-builts?

I.e. some libs have to be activated in user-config.jam on a per user 
basis, others like boost are to be activated on a per project basis (at 
the price of the project Jamroot not beeing platform independent any 
more - the install path is coded into use-project ).

Do you suggest using separate Jamroot files for other pre-built libs 
too, that have a naming that cannot be recognized natively by the linker?

Regards
Roland
