Subject: [Boost-build] Newbie question: how to change import library name (windows)

Hello everybody. First of all, thanks for reading my question.

The company I work for has a policy that says states that, in windows, the
import library must have the same basename as the dll.

I used <tag>@myrule to customize the library name, which was succesful,
except for the import library. The import library name remains the same as
the target name.
Does anybody know how to make boost.build change /IMPLIB linker flag for
mscv?

Thanks.
Juan Carlos Franzoy
