hi, i'd like to know if there is some tutorial or manual about how to use boost libraries with eclipse IDE.

There isn't really all that much to know. Install the Eclipse CDT IDE (the IDE with the C++ add-on). Download from Sourceforge the Boost libraries and bjam. I use the following bjam command to build Boost: bjam install --toolset=gcc --prefix=/usr/local --layout=tagged variant=debug threading=multi link=static description from: http://www.oneunified.net/blog/Personal/SoftwareDevelopment/CPP/BoostOnLinux .article Then start a C++ project in Eclipse CDT, do '#include <boost/whatever.hpp>' in your source files, and you should be up and running. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
