[iostreams] Docu Bug
The link to Windows binaries of zlib in /libs/iostreams/doc/classes/zlib.html (pointing to http://www.gzip.org/zlib/contrib/index.html) leads to Win16 binaries only! Probably it should be changed to: http://www.gzip.org/zlib/index.html Same for bzip2 in /libs/iostreams/doc/classes/bzip2.html (no link corrently). Probably should be http://www.digistar.com/bzip2/ . Bertolt PS: Please note that i didn't do any tests with this binaries! PPS: Just saw that the bjam output for missing bzip2 support on Win32 is: ****************************************************** Building Boost.Iostreams with bzip2 support disabled. ECHO To enable bzip2, cons ult the Boost.Iostreams documentation ******************************************************

Hah! Well, there were some win32 binaries there once upon a time. Anyway, I've written new documentation for zlib which points to the official win32 DLL.

Thanks for the link, but I'm not sure I can recommend the DLL on that page. It's apparently version 1.0.0 (current is 1.0.3) and it comes with no headers or import library.
