In the mid of 2016, PR "Add support for Visual Studio 15" [1] was merged into develop and eventually into master branch. Although the patch was released in Boost 1.63.0, the release notes [2] are silent about that update.
We never officially support, and hence don't mention in release notes, support for unreleased toolsets. Even if we work toward supporting such pre-releases.
I get it, thanks Rene!
- Or, is that left at discretion of maintainers of individual libraries and VS2017 support might be reached gradually over several releases instead of in a single shot?
Yes, and support for any toolset, even the really old ones, is always an incremental work in progress. See the results linked above.
Thanks for that one too. I've got it clarified now. Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
