This version libraries and/or DLLs for the following compilers:

The 1.51 one pops the following error after agreeing to the licenses: --------------------------- Boost C++ Libraries 1.51 Setup --------------------------- Failed to download mirror list, all downloadable content has been disabled. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- Additionally, would it be possible to give the 32-bit and 64-bit installers disjoint filenames and preferably mention in the installer somewhere which bitness it installs? It's currently impossible to deduce after having downloaded both which installer does what, if you even manage to download them both without clobbering the other one. -- Lars Viklund | zao@acc.umu.se

This has been corrected. It was a permissions problem on the server after the final upload of the mirrors file.

Yes, this type of thing is certainly planned. -- John Wiegley BoostPro Computing Software Development Training http://www.boostpro.com Clang/LLVM/EDG Compilers C++ Boost
