After some bugfixing, the second preview for Boost.Build V2, Milestone 3 is
available. See
http://boost.sourceforge.net/boost-build2/boost-build.zip
http://boost.sourceforge.net/boost-build2/boost-build.tar.bz2
The most important user-visible changes are:
- Improve msvc initialization: plain "using msvc ;" now works,
even if vcvars32.bat was never called.
- Use of shared libraries on windows no longer produces "unused source"
warning.
- Fix a number of bugs with absolute paths on Windows.
- The 'debug' variant now implies debug runtime.
As with the first preview, I'd appreciate if a few persons try it out and
report immediate problems. If nothing serious turns out, I'll make a final
release.
Thanks in advance,
Volodya
