Sorry, sent the earlier post by accident. Let's try again:

I have two custom build variants, FooDebug and FooRelease, and two
platforms they are built on, windows and HP-UX. I would like a staging
directory hierarchy, separate from my source/build tree, that looks like this:

stage
       windows
                  FooDebug
                         lib
                                all shared libs go here
                         utils
                                all executables go here
                         scripts
                                all scripts go here (.pl, .sh, .bat)
                  FooRelease
                         lib
                         utils
                         scripts
        hp-ux
                  <like above>

Any suggestions as to how to approach this? I was hoping that I could
create the appropriate targets in my Jamroot file, and not repeat
similar targets in my lower level Jamfiles.

Thanks,
Jim Gallagher
