Hi,

As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

The library built all right (VC++2013), but there was a bunch of warnings when compiling Boost.Spirit (roughly 3000 lines in the log) and Boost.Python (roughly 200 lines); see below. I didn't run the Tests. Question here: Is there an automated way of running the tests with the RC-version, best resulting in a file that can be uploaded manually (I'm behind a Firewall)? If so, what are the requirements and how do you use that tool? (Sorry for the question; I didn't find the Docs on the Website very clarifying.) Regards, Alexander Appendix: Here are some specimen of the warnings: * Boost.Python:

import.cpp d:\programme\python 3.2.2 64bit\include\pymath.h(22) : warning C4273: 'round' : inconsistent dll linkage C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\INCLUDE\math.h(516) : see previous definition of 'round' C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\INCLUDE\xtgmath.h(206) : warning C4273: 'round' : inconsistent dll linkage C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\INCLUDE\math.h(516) : see previous definition of 'round' compile-c-c++ bin.v2\libs\python\build\msvc-12.0\release\link-static\threading-multi\exec.obj (The others were of similar kind.)

* Boost.Spirit:
