# Defines main target 'cast', used to change type for target. For example, in Qt
# library one wants two kinds of CPP files -- those that just compiled and those
# that are passed via the MOC tool.
#
# This is done with:
#
#    exe main : main.cpp [ cast _ moccable-cpp : widget.cpp ] ;
#
# Boost.Build will assing target type CPP to both main.cpp and widget.cpp. Then,
# the cast rule will change target type of widget.cpp to MOCCABLE-CPP, and Qt
# support will run the MOC tool as part of the build process.
#
# At the moment, the 'cast' rule only works for non-derived (source) targets.
#
# TODO: The following comment is unclear or incorrect. Clean it up.
# > Another solution would be to add a separate main target 'moc-them' that
# > would moc all the passed sources, no matter what their type is, but I prefer
# > cast, as defining a new target type + generator for that type is somewhat
# > simpler than defining a main target rule.
