Re: [Boost-users] Boost Asio not built

That is incorrrect. Boost has binary libraries you link to statically or dynamically depending which parts of boost you use. _Most_ of boost is header only.

If you cannot get it to build yourself, it is also distributed as pre built binaries https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/

and even easier, you can use NuGet to get boost as a nuget package.

Boost.Asio is header only unless you don't want it to be. But you have to compile it as a part of your code. There's no precompiled asio library. This is from the Boost.Asio documentation: By default, Boost.Asio is a header-only library. However, some developers may prefer to build Boost.Asio using separately compiled source code. To do this, add|#include|to one (and only one) source file in a program, then build the program with|BOOST_ASIO_SEPARATE_COMPILATION|defined in the project/compiler settings. Alternatively,|BOOST_ASIO_DYN_LINK|may be defined to build a separately-compiled Boost.Asio as part of a shared library. If using Boost.Asio's SSL support, you will also need to add|#include|.

It's header only, AFAIK. So it is nothing to build. _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org mailto:Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
