[openbeos] using jam -- where's Jambase?

I'm compiling some small programs on BeOS using jam.
For my Jamfile, I copied and modified this:

# Copied from an OBOS newsletter article by Ryan Leavengood.
APP_NAME = myApp ; 
SOURCES =  main.cpp MyApp.cpp MyWindow.cpp MyView.cpp ; 
Main $(APP_NAME) : $(SOURCES) ; 
LINKLIBS on $(APP_NAME) = -lbe -lstdc++.r4 ;

It seems to work fine... There's 2 things I'd like to know:

If "Main" and "LINKLIBS" are jam rules, then, aren't they supposed
to be in a Jambase file somewhere? There's no Jambase around
though. Is it compiled into my jam 2.4 executable?

Also, can I somehow add MyApp.rsrc to the above Jamfile?

Thanks,
