I've looked at the inner implementation of the config components but I didn't find any way to get a simple preprocessor indicating which compiler/platform have been detected. Basiaclly, my goal is to use boost comprehensive detection features to select my own platform/compiler code selection through #ifdef.

I tried using Preprocessor magic over the BOOST_PLATFORM string but not to avail.

Is there a way to do such a thing or can we request for a #define BOOST_DETECTED_XXX_PLATFORM/COMPILER  definition ?
