Hi, is there any specific reason as for why the Boost.Test libraries aren't available for download in the installer? // Johan

Yeah. Indeed it does not. Well. Frankly I would be surprised if it was. I could not expect David to do anything to support Boost.Test. C'est la vie. You could use supplied projects to build binaries if you want. Gennadiy

Actually, I am surprised that Boost.Test libraries aren't in there. Other people did most of the work on the installer, and I can assure everyone that not including Boost.Test was an oversight, and one that we intend to correct. We really want the installer to be a complete system for working with Boost. Sorry for the inconvenience. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
