Sorry for the dumb question...
Just installed boost following the instructions on boost.org, and I
can't find the smart_ptr library. I downloaded the 1.32 .bz file, and
bjam, and installed on Linux/RHEL4.
I've now got 189 boost libraries in /usr/local/lib, and 32 in /usr/lib.
However, the only base libraries seem to be date_time, filesystem,
prg_exec_monitor, program_options, python, regex, serialisation,
signals, test_exec_monitor, thread, unit_test_framework, and
wserialisation, some of which aren't even listed on the libraries page
at boost.org. Where's smart_ptr? None of these libraries appear to have it.
The smart_ptr headers are in /usr/local/include/boost-1_32/boost, as
expected (but why 2 levels down? Surely I'm not expected to #include

Hm, how did you end up with 32 in /usr/lib? The bjam install doesn't put them there. Did you install the RPM package also?

smart_ptr is a header only library. The others are: Boost.DateTime, Boost.Filesystem, Boost.ProgramOptions, Boost.Python, Boost.Regex, Boost.Serialization, Boost.Signals, and Boost.Test. Some of those produce more than one library, i.e. Boost.Test.

No of course not. But you are expected to either: * Add /usr/local/include/boost-1_32 to your compilers include path. * Or symlink from /usr/local/include/boost to /usr/local/include/boost-1_32/boost. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - Grafik/jabber.org

Interesting. It's a new Centos 4 box. I've just checked the DVD, and it had a boost 1.32 RPM, so I guess that it was already installed... d'oh.
smart_ptr is a header only library.
Ahhh... missed that as well. Turning out to be a bad day... :) Thanks.
