Re: [Boost-users] boost geometry lib

Hi all,

Thanks for your interest in the Geometry Library.

As noticed by Peter, the library is header-only, so there's nothing to build and link to use it in your own programs. Just include the right headers and follow the instructions.

To compile the examples (as well as the tests), you can use the provided Jamfile. If you have bjam installed and your BOOST_ROOT is correctly set, this should work:

bjam --v2 --toolset=gcc

As indicated on the main page, we successfully compiled the library with GCC 3.4, 4.1 and 4.2.

Don't hesitate to ask for some more help. FYI, a preview 4 of the library is coming soon.

Good news. Thank you. B/Rgds Max
