[Boost-users] How to identify Boost libraries which support eVC++ compiler

Hi,

I'm trying to use Boost libraries with eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 compiler
(Windows CE applications development).
I'd like to catalogue as much as possible Boost libraries
which can be used with eVC++ 4.0 compiler.

Currently, I can use smart pointers successfully.
I also tried to use boost\date_time libraries and I found most of them
can not be used with eVC++. I got "unknown CE compiler" error message.
So, I suppose I will get that message in most cases.

As I revealed there is a compiler detection mechanism in file
boost\config\compiler\visualc.hpp but I couldn't find
out how exactly it is used.

I'd like to identify all Boost libraries which can not be used with eVC++.
Could anyone give me a few hints about how to start such identification?
Are there any macro definitions or can I expect that visualc.hpp can
help me in this task?

Thank in advance for all comments
Best regards
