small test with 1.74-beta looks better --------- #include <boost/archive/xml_iarchive.hpp> #include <boost/smart_ptr/shared_ptr.hpp> int main() { return 0; } --------- does compile without a problem with current 1.74-beta but now the linker is telling me that i need to have a clangw10 build of boost lld-link : error : could not open 'libboost_serialization-clangw10-mt-gd-x32-1_74.lib': no such file or directory the nature of clang-cl is a easy binary and feature compatible drop in replacement for the microsoft-cl until 1.74 there was no need to prepare a descent build of boost for clang i switch multiple times per day between microsoft-cl and clang-cl (because clang-cl gives better diagnostics) this switching works with all (~10-20 libs) of my non-boost third party libs without the need for a descent build - why do boost need that?, or did i configure something wrong?

is there any official interest in supporting clang-cl or is it up to a library maintainer to support it?
There are no official testers running clang-cl, as far as I can see:
https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/summary.html
However, CI configs for many libraries do include clang-cl jobs. So the support is each library maintainer's initiative.
You can try filing PRs improving support for clang-cl to given libraries.
Older versions of clang-cl were too broken to be supported, so don't expect those to work. And probably don't bother creating PRs adding workarounds for them. Newer versions seem to be better, though.

"clang-cl defines _MSC_VER by ms-compatibility but BOOST_MSVC will not be set." still a problem?
BOOST_MSVC is not supposed to be defined for clang-cl.
