I'm currently working with boost 1.46 which I downloaded from the main boost site and installed a few weeks ago, without a hitch. Just now I went to check in /usr/local/share/doc for the boost documentation, and discovered it wasn't installed when I asked bjam to install.
So, how do I ask bjam to make the documentation, and to install it? I would like to have a local copy as I'm not always going to have internet access when working.
The documentation should be pre-built. You can access it at libs/libraries.htm or libs/<library name>/index.html. Unfortunately, there's no way to install the documentation. It's set up to live in the source tree and moving would break a lot of links.
It should not be that impossible as several distributions, such as Debian, place the documentation in /usr/share/doc and the links all work. Besides, isn't the documentation generated by docbook or doxygen or some similar system? If it is, it should be simple enough to generate it for any desired target location. -- Stirling Westrup Programmer, Entrepreneur. https://www.linkedin.com/e/fpf/77228 http://www.linkedin.com/in/swestrup http://technaut.livejournal.com http://sourceforge.net/users/stirlingwestrup
