Thanks very much for the prompt and spot-on answer. cd /opt/local/bin sudo ln -s bjam jam followed by the usual darwinports build commands worked very nicely. The /opt/local/... stuff is a darwinports-ism.

It's actually a Perforce/Jam question. SubInclude is a rule present in the Perforce/Jam build system. For Boost.Build that rule is not present. The reason it's not present for you is that you are invoking "bjam", which *only* includes the Boost.Build functionality. If you want the Perforce functionality you need to invoke it as "jam". In Darwin/MacOSX that will likely invoke the Apple supplied jam instead of Boost.Jam which is likely what you really want. But if you instead want to invoke Boost.Jam with the Perforce behavior link or copy "bjam" to make it available as "jam", and execute that. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users Courier>> spelunk vb: explore natural caves >> splunk vb : explore IT infrastructure
