In my jam file I have:

import ../../predef/check/predef : check require : predef-check predef-require ;

and in the requirments section of various Boost Build built-in rules I have:

[ predef-check "BOOST_COMP_GNUC >= 4.3" : <cxxflags>-std=c++0x ]

When I try to process my jamfile I get numerous warnings along the line of:

Definitely something strange there. followed eventually by:

Indeed.. No idea why it would not fill in those sources. I will have to investigate. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
