[Boost-build] select-by-type

Hi,

  In toolset/borland.jam (or a similar file), I need to modify

      rule link ( targets + : sources * : properties * )
      {
          ....
      }

  in order to extract the sources of type OBJ in a separate variable.

  I tried using:

      echo [ virtual-target.select-by-type OBJ : $(sources) ] ;

  but I'm getting an error when building. On further investigation, it
  turns out that $(sources[1]) is something like this:

      <p!-Bin\borland-5.6.0\debug\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi\user-interface-gui\xcharset-ansi>Main.obj

  and it doesn't have a .type property (required by select-by-type).
  It's not a "virtual target" object !

  How can I get the OBJ sources in a variable, so I can use it in the
  "actions link ..." code ?

Thank you for your time,
