Location of html documention?
I've downloaded boost on my system and run tests which build the libraries. When I surf the documention on my local hard drive in to "type_traits" I'm redirected to the www.boost.org How do I get the html documentation on my hard drive. Perhaps it is produced by the normal install process - which I confess I didn't do - as running the tests builds the libraries I need. I looked for it there but I didn't see it. Robert Ramey

AFAIK you will need to build it first. An alternative might be to use a prepacked version e.g. on debian, or use the gui installer from the boost consulting web page. Roland

If you downloaded a release tarball then the docs should be there already. If you're talking about current SNV/trunk then the docs would have to be build with bjam from boost-root/doc (caution takes a long time!). Otherwise you'll get redirected to a nightly build of the docs online (I hope). John.
