I have a working scanner setup for one of our custom compiler toolchains.  I am now trying to add a scanner for ASM files for another toolchain.  Apparently the scanners are global per type and so it is not obvious to me how to add a second scanner for the same type but another toolchain.  I tried making new ASM types, one per toolchain but then the build does not find a generator for .s files to .o file:

class asm-scanner : common-scanner
{
    rule pattern ( )
    {
    return "\.import[ ]*\"(.*)\"[ ]*;" ;
    }
}

scanner.register asm-scanner : include ;

type.set-scanner ADI_ASM : asm-scanner ;

generators.register-c-compiler adi.compile.asm : ADI_ASM : OBJ : <toolset>adi ;

Any suggestions?

Also, if I declare this class in two different toolchain files, bjam crashes:

class asm-scanner : common-scanner
{
    rule pattern ( )
    {
    return "\.import[ ]*\"(.*)\"[ ]*;" ;
    }
}

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

Thanks

Chris
