Is there some common practice where to put such configure checks that are required to build the library? I'm putting configure/build time checks in the config directory at the top level of the library. But I don't think there is an official guideline wrt. this. I think there should be. And not just in JSON metadata. But it is a big job for some libraries, duplicating what is in jamfiles.
Starting a new thread. TLDR: Where should (source)files go that are required during the "configure" step of a regular build? Not sure what is meant by JSON metadata as I don't see how that is related. Can you elaborate?
