Is there any step-by-step guide on how to create, build and document a new library? I could really use that as the boost build and documentation system is pretty alien to an autotools-accustomed guy like me.
there is a guide on how to set up the build system: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_41_0/doc/html/boostbook/getting/started.html there is none on how to write documentation, this is how I got started: - try if you can successfully bjam inside libs/intrusive/doc/ - copy intrusive/doc/Jamfile.v2 and intrusive/doc/intrusive.qbk to your library dir (must be inside the boost tree!) - change anything that looks "intrusive" in the jamfile to your library - open the .qbk file and delete all sections except the one containing "xinclude autodoc.xml" - bjam you should get a html-documentation built that contains the typical boost reference documentation for your library.
