 Hello,
 
Our development toolchain was changed because 
of external conditions from a 
reasonably fast CodeWarrior based build 
process to a windows batch file + 
perl + make voodoo process which is 
horribly slow (a trivial change to 1 cpp 
file + compile takes ~10 
minutes).
 
I'm trying to quickly implement BBv2 support for armcc 
and armlink for RVCT 
2.2 sp1 (as well as for the OS and standard 
library our platform uses but 
first thing is first).
 
I 
tried hacking a few of the files in the v2/tools directory and 
borland 
seemed to be the simplest so I started from 
it.
 
I've attached what I've been able to come up with so 
far.
 
Trying to compile a test project 
gives:
 
C:Codengi_bbv2audioexprojectsbbv2>bjam

 C:/Code/ngi_bbv2/boost_build/v2/kernelmodules.jam:66: in

import
 C:Codengi_bbv2.boost_buildv2kernelbootstrap.jam:132: in 
boost-build
 C:Codengi_bbv2boost-build.jam:1: in module 
scope
 
 
I really have no idea what I'm doing, as I don't 
understand Jam or 
Boost.Build despite trying to digest the 
documentation several times.  Could ;
someone give me a hand or at 
least point me in the right direction.
 
Thanks,

Sure enough. You have this:

        generators.register-linker rvct.link : OBJ
SEARCHED_LIB STATIC_LIB IMPORT_LIB : EXE :
<toolset>rvct ;

which basically say: "to produce EXE", use
action/rule pair called "rvct.link".
You can read more about action/rule pairs at the bottom of
generators.register-linker rvct.link : OBJ SEARCHED_LIB
STATIC_LIB IMPORT_LIB : EXE : <toolset>rvct ;

However, you don't have any action name 'link' in your
rvct.jam. While borland.jam has
something like:

        actions link
        {
            $(.set-path)$(.root:W)$(.old-path)
"$(CONFIG_COMMAND)" -v -q $(OPTIONS)
-L"$(LIBRARY_PATH:W)"
-L"$(STDLIBPATH:W)" -e"$(<[1]:W)"
"($(<[1]:W).rsp:E=$(nl)"$(>)"
$(nl)$(LIBRARIES)
$(nl)"$(LIBRARY_OPTION)$(FINDLIBS_ST:S=.lib)"
$(nl)"$(LIBRARY_OPTION)$(FINDLIBS_SA:S=.lib)")&quo
t;
        }

you don't have anything like that. Basically, you did not
say what command should be used
for linking. I presume you've just forgot to add that.

Doh! I only copied part of the borland.jam file I forgot to
scroll down.

This gets me further but I still have a long way to go.

Thanks,
