+ <p>Boost is tested on a wide range of compilers and

+ 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
