I just followed the instructions for Windows. Then I went to boost/doc and ran "bjam". It appears that doxygen is required, no?
If you want to build the complete documentation you need doxygen, latex and ghostscript. But this is only needed for some of the libraries' documentation. This is a bit complicated, but we do supply prebuilt documentation ourselves. If you want to get the documentation for the trunk or release branches of boost you can download 'boost-trunk-docs.7z' or 'boost-docs.7z' (for release) from http://boost.cowic.de/rc, although this is built irregularly so it sometimes gets out of date.
Shouldn't installation instructions for doxygen be included in the Windows section? There seem to be such instructions in the MacOS X section.
Possibly, I'm going to eventually write new getting stated and installation documentation. The wiki page I linked to is my starting point for that. Daniel
