# Configurations
#
# The following class helps to manage toolset configurations. Each configuration
# has a unique ID and one or more parameters. A typical example of a unique ID
# is a condition generated by 'common.check-init-parameters' rule. Other kinds
# of IDs can be used. Parameters may include any details about the configuration
# like 'command', 'path', etc.
#
# A toolset configuration may be in one of the following states:
#
#   - registered
#       Configuration has been registered (e.g. explicitly or by auto-detection
#       code) but has not yet been marked as used, i.e. 'toolset.using' rule has
#       not yet been called for it.
#   - used
#       Once called 'toolset.using' rule marks the configuration as 'used'.
#
# The main difference between the states above is that while a configuration is
# 'registered' its options can be freely changed. This is useful in particular
# for autodetection code - all detected configurations may be safely overwritten
# by user code.

# Given a target, as given to a custom tag rule, returns a string formatted
# according to the passed format. Format is a list of properties that is
# represented in the result. For each element of format the corresponding target
# information is obtained and added to the result string. For all, but the
# literal, the format value is taken as the as string to prepend to the output
# to join the item to the rest of the result. If not given "-" is used as a
# joiner.
#
# The format options can be:
#
#   <base>[joiner]
#       ::  The basename of the target name.
#   <toolset>[joiner]
#       ::  The abbreviated toolset tag being used to build the target.
#   <threading>[joiner]
#       ::  Indication of a multi-threaded build.
#   <runtime>[joiner]
#       ::  Collective tag of the build runtime.
#   <version:/version-feature | X.Y[.Z]/>[joiner]
#       ::  Short version tag taken from the given "version-feature" in the
#           build properties. Or if not present, the literal value as the
#           version number.
#   <property:/property-name/>[joiner]
#       ::  Direct lookup of the given property-name value in the build
#           properties. /property-name/ is a regular expression. E.g.
#           <property:toolset-.*:flavor> will match every toolset.
#   /otherwise/
#       ::  The literal value of the format argument.
#
# For example this format:
#
#   boost_ <base> <toolset> <threading> <runtime> <version:boost-version>
#
# Might return:
#
#   boost_thread-vc80-mt-gd-1_33.dll, or
#   boost_regex-vc80-gd-1_33.dll
#
# The returned name also has the target type specific prefix and suffix which
# puts it in a ready form to use as the value from a custom tag rule.
