Gennadiy,
I have had similar problems with Boost.Test. I did manage to use the
debugger, when I created the test application directly in visual studio
and added the parameters, but I have been unable to get the same
behavior when compiling via bjam fro visual slick-edit.
IMO, it should be dead-simple to do this. Can we be given a little help?
Thanks
