I plan on using Boost for the first time for our school project during our third year. I am using Visual Studio 2010 (windows) as the only member in the project to use Boost with. I added the root of the boost folder as additional include directory which turns out to be the correct way for the includes to work.

I searched thoroughly on google but i did not know what to do with the information...
