[Boost-build] Generator with specific types

Hi,

I have a generator which generates from xml to header C++ files. But,
I'd like to avoid creating a generic XML -> HPP generator, because
that is way too broad and could conflict with other generators.

So, I created a type.register WAYLAND_XML : : XML ; type and a
generator of the type:

generators.register-standard wayland-generator.generate : WAYLAND_XML : HPP ;

However, I don't know how to say, when instancing a typed-target,
explicitly which types are my sources.

Also, how do I get the path to a built executable so I can use it in
the generation action?

Kind regards,
