    Supported Compilers

    + +

    Boost is tested on a wide range of compilers and + platforms. 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 regression + test results.

Note: Boost does not support the + non-standard "Safe" C++ Library shipping with + Visual C++ 8.0, which may result in many spurious + warnings from Boost headers and other + standards-conforming C++ code. To suppress these + warnings, define the macro + _SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE.
