Nothing is impossible ;-) In the case of regex it's possible as long as all the generated DLLs/SOs/LIBs have the name of the library in it: "boost_regex". So the same applies to the signal library: "boost_signals". You just need to find out what the mappings from the various build variants to the names, and use a "stage" rule to create the needed versions. The regex library already has a stage rule, for example, that generates a libboost_regex_debug.so, or boost_regex_debug.dll. So if you could tell us what the various names of the libraries that should be generated I can probably give you a stage rule that will generate them. Another alternative is to declare more targets (dll ...) with the specific names and options. >If you want I send the header and the needed changes. Perhaps that might help. I guess the header would have the mappings from compiler to name. -- grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 102708583@icq _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
