Re: [Boost-build] compile error in bgl build

Hi Jurko,
  My bad..its python.jam and it is imported  in   Jamfile.v2.

Although I am not all that new to boost I still don't know enough to create
a minimal project from bgl to reproduce error.

But hopefully this should give some idea.

bjam fails with following additional message
$(BOOST_ROOT)tools/build/v2/build/project.jam:313: in load-jamfile
$(BOOST_ROOT)tools/build/v2/build/project.jam:63: in load
...
...
$(BOOST_ROOT)tools/build/v2//boost-build.jam:8: in module scope

This seems to be list of jam files that bjam searched for while looking for
python.get-python-interpreter rule.

However python.jam is in directory $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/build/v2/tools/. So
my guess is that bjam is unable to locate jam files in tools subdirectory.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
Sandeep
