Ok, so basically I need to change the default in bjam to turn off
wchar_t as a native type, because our project has issues with some
legacy code which wouldn't comply otherwise.  Any idea how to disable
this in bjam?  I searched through and couldn't find anything in any of
the jam files that indicated that this setting was either on or off.

Thanks again for the help,

Lawrence

I'm not sure that's true.  What is necessary is that the switch setting
must 
be the same as when the library is built.  I presume its been built with

bjam so its not readily apparent what the switch setting the library is 
actually built with.  I'm quite sure that this is ok as vc 6.5 tests
work 
and this version of compiler only has wchar_t defined as a 16 bit
integer.

I'll stick it in.
