This is what I just did: in VS2017, I pasted this code:

#include <boost/outcome/outcome.hpp>
#include <system_error>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // boost::outcome::result<int> x( std::errc::operation_not_permitted );

    boost::outcome::outcome<int> x = boost::outcome::make_errored_outcome( 
std::errc::operation_not_permitted );

    if( x.has_value() )
    {
        std::cout << "Value: " << x.value() << std::endl;
    }
    else
    {
        std::cout << "Error: " << x.error() << std::endl;
    }

#if defined(_WINDOWS_)
    std::cout << "<windows.h> has been included\n";
#endif
}

and when I type x., Intellisense doesn't want to display anything.
