-# Manages 'generators' --- objects which can do transformation between different
-# target types and contain algorithm for finding transformation from sources to
-# targets.
-#
-# The main entry point to this module is generators.construct rule. It is given
-# a list of source targets, desired target type and a set of properties. It
-# starts by selecting 'viable generators', which have any chances of producing
-# the desired target type with the required properties. Generators are ranked
-# and a set of the most specific ones is selected.
-#
-# The most specific generators have their 'run' methods called, with the
-# properties and list of sources. Each one selects a target which can be
-# directly consumed, and tries to convert the remaining ones to the types it can
-# consume. This is done by recursively calling 'construct' with all consumable
-# types.
-#
-# If the generator has collected all the targets it needs, it creates targets
-# corresponding to result, and returns it. When all generators have been run,
-# results of one of them are selected and returned as a result.
-#
-# It is quite possible for 'construct' to return more targets that it was asked
-# for. For example, if it were asked to generate a target of type EXE, but the
-# only found generator produces both EXE and TDS (file with debug) information.
-# The extra target will be returned.
-#
-# Likewise, when generator tries to convert sources to consumable types, it can
-# get more targets that it was asked for. The question is what to do with extra
-# targets. Boost.Build attempts to convert them to requested types, and attempts
-# that as early as possible. Specifically, this is done after invoking each
-# generator. TODO: An example is needed to document the rationale for trying
-# extra target conversion at that point.
-#
-# In order for the system to be able to use a specific generator instance 'when
-# needed', the instance needs to be registered with the system using
-# generators.register() or one of its related rules. Unregistered generators may
-# only be run explicitly and will not be considered by Boost.Build when when
-# converting between given target types.

-# source target type for some generator then all of the target type's derived
-# target types should automatically be considered as viable source target types
-# for the same generator as well. Does nothing if a non-derived target type is
-# passed to it.
