how to pass options to used projects ?

[Gaydov Victor-2]

hello!

my jamfile contains something like this:

project myproj : requirements <variant>debug:<define>_GLIBCXX_DEBUG ;

use-project /boost : $(BOOST_PATH) ;

exe main : ...... /boost//program_options ;

the problem is that i can't pass '<define>_GLIBCXX_DEBUG' to /boost project. is there a way to do it ? i tried /boost//program_options/<define>_GLIBCXX_DEBUG, but it didn't help.

No, unfortunately not.

I usually use a custom variant for this:

variant cxxdebug : <optimization>off
                   <debug-symbols>on
                   <inlining>off
                   <runtime-debugging>on
                   <define>_GLIBCXX_DEBUG ;

Just put this in user-config.jam (or maybe site-config.jam or your Jamroot)
and then call bjam cxxdebug.

This will (re-)build everything with the correct settings...

Yours,

Jürgen
