Dilshan,

Your request is quite general. Without specifics, it's hard for anyone here to
give any more detailed advice other than what has already been offered.

As was suggested previously by myself and others, please consult the
documentation for getting started. Come up with a goal on what you want to
accomplish with your coding project and then dive in. That's the best way to
learn.

For example, let's suppose I want to write some code that allows for two
processes to communicate with each other on the same machine. The shared
memory paradigm is something that comes to mind. In light of this, I would
want to dig in and learn about Boost.Interprocess and see what it has to
offer. I can guarantee that you will learn a lot about this library after
you've completed your task. This is but one of a myriad of libraries that
Boost has to offer.

Come up with an objective in mind, pick a Boost library, and dig in...

Good luck.

Shayne

Thank you Shayne. I wanted to try Boost to enhance my coding abilities in C++
and learn the process of optimizing simultaneously. With that in mind, can you
direct me? Thank you.

Dilshan.

        Depending on what you're wanting to accomplish, I would suggest looking at
the

        Hi all,
                 I'm a new member to C++ boost and I have a fairly good knowledge in
        programming in C++. I'm very much excited to join this group and I need
        directions from the senior members on how to start myself. Please help me
        here. Thanks in advance.

        regards,
        DilSHAN.
