Hi guys,

Just to show how easy my Jam setup is, below is an example Jamfile:

SubDir OBOS_TOP sources obos kits Printing ;

#print_server defs
Server print_server : print_server.cpp ;
LinkSharedOSLibs print_server : be root ;
AddResources print_server : print_server.FileTypes.rsrc ;

#Printers defs
Preference Printers : Printers.cpp ;
LinkSharedOSLibs Printers : be root ;
AddResources Printers : Printers.FileTypes.rsrc ;

#Print To File defs
Addon "Print To File" : Print transport : PrintToFile.cpp ;
LinkSharedOSLibs "Print To File" : be root ;
AddResources "Print To File" : PrintToFile.FileTypes.rsrc ;

#PrintJob lib defs
SharedLibrary PrintJob : PrintJob.cpp ;
LinkSharedOSLibs PrintJob : be root ;
AddResources libPrintJob.so : PrintJob.FileTypes.rsrc ;

this is all you have to do :) hope this clears things up. For a quick 
view on an (not so recent) copy of my setup, go to:

http://www.i-e-a.com/~ithamar/open-beos/build/

and take a look at the downloads available there.... I took Jam so you 
_wouldn't_ have to spend much time on getting the build files written 
for your OBOS parts :)

Regards,

Ithamar.
