Hi Andreas,

Thanks for your help. So then I also join in asking for guidance in installing the unit tests (I'm hoping to use them as examples that I can learn from) either a) independently from or b) as part of the BOOST_ROOT tree.  In the case of b),
 - are we talking about adding to the tree both boost-bindings/boost and boost-bindings/libs or only the last one?
 - where in the tree? perhaps BOOST_ROOT/boost?

Thanks again,

Erwann.

At this point, you're done. The library is installed, as it only consists of
headers and doesn't need to be compiled.

You can safely ignore those until you feel something is wrong--they're unit
tests. There probably is a way of running them automatically if the bindings
are unpacked as part of the boost tree, but I haven't yet figured out how to
make them work independently.

If anybody can provide guidance on that, I'd be grateful btw.

Yeah, that's probably due to the missing boost root, see above.
