So it would be nice to have sample output appended as a long comment /* Output is: ..... */ (For those using MSVC, I find that Gennediy's suggestion in Boost.Test is most helpful: For Microsoft IDE, add to the project configuration properties a Build Events, Post-BuildEvent, Command line: "$(TargetDir)$(TargetName).exe" Description: Autorun "$(TargetDir)$(TargetName).exe" This means you can simply copy and post from the Output Windows onto the .cpp demo file. (and also perhaps individual outputs as inline comments cout << length << endl; // "2.0 m") 3 A quick failed attempt to build suggests that the folder /utility is missing? 4 I also note the license is not Boost - this would of course be essential, but hopefully only requires some editing. 5 Meantime I am RTFM ;-) Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
