Easy install on Windows 7 or later ---------------------------------- 1. Open up a Cygwin terminal and cd to your downloaded source 2. Run ./bootstrap.bat ( had to search for file) ~/Desktop/Download/boost_1_62_0/tools/build$ ./bootstrap.bat mingw ** because Im using mingw Bootstrapping the build engine Bootstrapping is done. To build, run: .\b2 --prefix=DIR install 3. Since I use Mingwing gcc I run the following commands: ~/Desktop/Download/boost_1_62_0/tools/build$ ./b2.exe --prefix=/boost/ toolset=gcc install Easy Install. Examples are in the install directory cd examples and just find a main.cpp program. To compile just run the following command : g++ main.cpp -o example1

I agree with other persons. The documentation is very poor. I'm still fighting with linking problems, since hours.

When you add allocator_traits support for both C++ - I breathed a breath of fresh air :) Tnx.

Boost is, next to STL, the most useful resource for programming in C++! Anyone using the thumbs down has no right calling themselves a C++ developer/architect ;).
demidirin Posted 2012-02-07

Well done, we need more so good Projects!
djwarmonger Posted 2012-01-15

We intensively use Boost in VCMI project. An unlimited number of useful tools from simple utilities to mind-bending libraries that allow metaprogramming at any level of abstraction.
besttemp Posted 2012-01-11

Useful stuff. Nice work!
wlodzimierz Posted 2012-01-08

This is the helpful future of C++ :D

Great library, so much better to work with than most of QT's stuff (GUI aside). The easiest way to use it is the installer at boostpro.com.
lordsox Posted 2011-12-21

Great stuff.... *thumbs up* ;-)

Best documentation, right from how to install to explanation on complex C++ concepts... everything there is well structured, systematic, and consistent.
karadoc Posted 2011-06-02

When the C++ standard library is lacking, Boost picks up the slack – It then flies around holding that slack, miraculously tying up all the loose ends. It really is a very high quality set of libraries.

Been trying for months to download the latest version, but SourceForge doesn't seem to be working anymore. Too bad. Looked like a useful utility.
skoobiedu Posted 2011-04-18

Boost is one of, if not, the most important development libraries in any C++ programmer's arsenal.
starker Posted 2011-03-06

Best for using C++ and also quick which will save alot of time.
yodaj Posted 2011-02-25

good job
groovounet Posted 2010-09-23

To walk I use my legs, To program in C++ I use Boost!
bornlibra23 Posted 2010-06-21

Being An Alalgamation It Does Have Missing Features But Inter Library Interaction In Particular Is Excellent. In All I Will Give It A Thumbs Up.
