Subject: [Boost-build] Problem with msvc build and library name

Hello,

I am using Boost build milestone 12(the last released version) with VS2013 on
windows 7.

I have two projects, where one depends on the other. The source project has a
tag rule that renames the generated library names, to include version
information.

However when the other project uses those libraries, the generated rsp file is
stripping the trailing zero, resulting in a link error.

e.g.

library name in filesystem : name.1.0.lib

Jamfile declaration :
lib name : : <name>name.1.0 <search>$(MYLIBPATH)/lib

rsp file usage : "name.1.lib"

How can I make boost build to generate the correct file name?

TIA.
