Is there any return of experience to actually compiles and use Boost on ARM platform (CORTEX 9 or similar). We're currently trying to look at such machien and pondered about the state of C++ compiler on them. More down to earth question, has anybody use tricky template stuff with ARM tool set and were there any problem ? thanks

I am not sure I understand your concern. gcc is generally available for arm, see for example: http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/subscription?@template=lite This is fairly recent G++ so I would not expect any issues with templates. In 1.43 and trunk, Boost.Build should have no problems whatsoever doing arm-linux cross compilation, see docs. I believe a few folks on IRC got Boost compiled successfully for this target. - Volodya
