Hi, I have a little trouble using bjam: I'd like to tell it to add /my/path to the include paths, by using this command-line: bjam include=/my/path I took this syntax from here: http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/overview/invocation.html#bbv... But bjam answers with /usr/share/boost-build/build/property.jam:258: in validate1 from module property error: Invalid property '<include>': No value specified for feature 'include'. /usr/share/boost-build/build/property.jam:266: in property.validate from module property /usr/share/boost-build/build/build-request.jam:185: in convert-command-line-element from module build-request /usr/share/boost-build/build/build-request.jam:143: in build-request.from-command-line from module build-request /usr/share/boost-build/build-system.jam:164: in load from module build-system /usr/share/boost-build/kernel/modules.jam:261: in import from module modules /usr/share/boost-build/kernel/bootstrap.jam:132: in boost-build from module /usr/share/boost-build/boost-build.jam:1: in module scope from module Any idea? I am using bjam installed by Ubuntu-8.04: Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 11) Boost.Jam 03.1.14 Regards, Roland

That's pretty old. It might work better with a more recent version. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Updating to 3.1.17 (current version, I'd say), makes no difference.

What about boost-build? Milestone 11 is also ancient. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Steven, you saved my day :-) It works as expected. Maybe it would be time to release the new version? Thanks and regards, Roland

As I recall, the version of Boost.Build that's separately packaged on sourceforge is horribly out of date. The version included in any recent release of Boost should work. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Do you think it would make sense to create a ticket for this? It cost me several hours experimenting and the solution was so simple, in the end.
Thanks again, Roland

I hope to have a release of Boost.Build within 3 months. - Volodya
