The proposal is to add to the Boost library guidelines the requirement that a XYZConfig.cmake module be provided with the installation of any Boost.XYZ library. This module would simply export the proper CMake targets, which would solve the problem of integrating Boost with a CMake-based build system and would remove the need for the custom FindBoost support in CMake.
Please give a specific example of what this XYZConfig.cmake module entails ? For a header-only library ? For a built library ? For running tests ? For creating documentation ? Along with some sort of decent explanation of what is going on in each situation.
Yes, I would also like to know. Please give your suggested guideline. What should library authors be encouraged/required to actually do?
