What is it?
A very useful C++ standards package. www.boost.org
Installing
Linux
All modern distributions have a Boost-libraries package
Windows
Static vs Dynamic Libraries
see http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html#Build_Install :
Download boost-jam (ex: uncompress to C:\boost-jam\boost-jam-3.1.13-1-ntx86)
Download boost source (ex: uncompress to C:\boost-src\boost_1_33_1)
By default, installation is C:\Boost\include and C:\Boost\lib
- *.dll Dynamic library version.
- *.lib Import library for the dll.
- lib*.lib Static library version.
open windows shell (not a cygwin shell): Start->Run... "cmd.exe"
from top-level source directory (dir containing "boost-build.jam" file), run:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat C:\boost-jam\boost-jam-3.1.13-1-ntx86\bjam.exe "-sTOOLS=xxxxx" install
Where "xxxxx" is vc-8_0 for Studio 2005 or msvc for VC6.
Note, this takes a *very* long time.
Visual Studio 2005
see http://www.boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html regarding disabling "deprecated" warnings when using the boost libraries.
Visual Studio 6
Problems: serialization and program options do not build
