Download and unpack fine - Vista, MSVC 9.0. It seems to have grown ;-) Rebuilt a few things... NO showstoppers :-)) but a few minor observations... As usual was confused by instructions on building libraries. No warning that it will take quite a long time. I suspect many Windows users may not need all the versions of all the libraries. Regex and Test and Datetime most popular? I repeat my suggestion that a few well-chosen command files would be *much* more immediately useful and reduce the steady stream of cries for help on the mailing list. Not helped by missing link to Boost.Build documentation: File "boost-build/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/invocation.html"not found. From: "For a complete description of these and other invocation options, please see the Boost.Build documentation." As usual a slew of warnings :-( "warning C4702: unreachable code" - in Boost.Test Shall I submit Trak for these? "warning C4180: qualifier applied to function type has no meaning; ignored" in math library (mea culpa - submit Trak to self!) and C4180 in Fusion too. This C4180 seems such an unhelpful warning that I wonder if it should be 'globally' suppressed in Boost config. Does anyone consider C4180 a useful warning to them? It is a problem on other platforms? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal, UK LA8 8AB +44 1539 561830, mobile +44 7714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
