Subject: [Boost-build] [boost-build] Using glob rule on automatically generated files
From: Darren Garvey (darren.garvey_at_[hidden])

Hi,

I'm using a script to generate some files and then using an install rule to
copy generated headers around.

I'm having a problem with the [ glob *.hpp ] rule being evaluated before the
SHELL command that generates the .hpp files runs. Sounds exactly like this
problem: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.build/20240.

Is the conclusion that it's best doing this outside of Boost Build entirely?
Have things changed and there is a way to make this work nicely?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Darren
