As I am starting a project with boost lib, it seems my set-up isn't working :
main.cpp :
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
boost::asio::io_service io_service_;
return 0;
}
Jamfile :
exe node
: main.cpp ;
bjam
will produce :

It seems that bjam correctly find the header, but not the libs. So I tried to tell bjam where to find boost :
Jamfile :
use-project /boost : /usr/lib/boost ;
exe node
: main.cpp
/boost//system
;
But bjam will now produce :
/usr/share/boost-build/build/project.jam:270: in find-jamfile from module project
error: Unable to load Jamfile.
error: Could not find a Jamfile in directory '/usr/lib/boost'.
error: Attempted to find it with pattern '[Bb]uild.jam [Jj]amfile.v2 [Jj]amfile [Jj]amfile.jam'.

It unerstand that bjam want to rebuild boost, that's why it's looking for a Jamfile in /usr/lib/boost
.
Is there anything missing ? How could I tell bjam where are the missing libs to link against ?
Some times ago, I used
LINKLIBS = -lboost_system -lboost_filesystem ;
But I don't know how to translate this for Boost.build v2.
Thanks.
Finally, I got the solution.
I expected <linkflags>
to be able to take more than one lib, but I was wrong.
Here is the fix, I changed my Jamfile to :
exe node
: main.cpp
: <linkflags>-lpthread
<linkflags>-lboost_system
;
