[Boost-users] Question about boost.build and automatic selection of toolsets

I am using boost-build in my project (very happy with the outcome) but I
would like to have the toolset selected automatically based on the
operating system. Currently I am running successfully from the command line
by manually setting the toolset when I am running it from macos and linux
accordingly, but I feel like the Jamroot file should be able to figure that
out for me.

Any ideas?

I made a more descriptive post on stack overflow, to share the knowledge
once we figure this one out.
