Since Boost libraries rely on modern C++ + features not available in all compilers, not all + Boost libraries will work with every compiler. The + following compilers and platforms have been + extensively tested with Boost, although many other + compilers and platforms will work as well. For more + information, see the <a href= + "http://www.boost.org/regression/release/user/">regression + test results</a>.</p> + + <p><b>New for this release</b>: Support for building + with the newest STLport-5.0 was added.
