migration and general questions

Couple more migration and general questions:

What is correspondence to INTEL_BASE_MSVC_TOOLSET?

Will --preserve-test-targets still work? Can I add it ot the
user-config?

Can we make bjam to automatically log all it's output into
something like 
bjam.<toolset>.out?

Reading from intel-win.jam file...

# Initializes the intel toolset for windows
rule init ( version ? :     # the compiler version
             command * :     # the command to invoke the
compiler itself
             options *       # Additional option:
<compatibility>
                             # either 'vc6', 'vc7', 'vc7.1'
                             # or 'native'(default).
           )

>> Will --preserve-test-targets still work?

Doing a grep/find in testing.jam...

local argv = [ modules.peek : ARGV ] ;
if --preserve-test-targets in $(argv)
{
     preserve-test-targets = true ;
}

So, yes it will work.

>> Can I add it ot the user-config?

Hm, looking at one of my user-config.jam files 
<http://beta.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/
RSI%20Droid.html>, you 
should be able to do:

modules.poke : ARGV : [ modules.peek : ARGV ]
--preserve-test-targets ;

>> Can we make bjam to automatically log all it's

It's possible to change BB and bjam to do that but it's not
a trivial 
change, as it would require adding some new builtins to
bjam.

Umm. I am not am expert in BB. What should I add to either
command line, 
Jamfile or user-config to specify the target msvc ?

Sounds line nice to have feature. For now I am using wrapper
script and 
tee-ing output.

You don't need to be an expert  The init
rule is what gets called 
when you do "using intel-win ;" in your
user-config.jam. And the 
arguments map directly to the ones you pass into the
"using" (minus the 
toolset since it already has that). So you might add
<compatibility>vc6 
to the fourth argument.

Why do you think it's a nice feature?

Because I am running build comands that may spawn 100 pages
and for NT most 
command prompts wont store more than 1.  Also it's easier to
deal with file 
that search through terminal screen. Also I can save result
from different 
build run and compare.

I would say that 'tee' + redirect is the right solution for
this task. I don't
expect all programs that produces more that 1 page of output
to have 
'save all output to file' option.
