Instructions for Documentation
There are different possible configurations when building the docs:
Option 1. Start out with single boost library, such as the one in this repository. A new boost-root directory is generated for you, next to the current repo, (in the location ../boost-root) and the docs are output to ../boost-root/libs/name-of-this-repo/doc/html
or
Option 2. You have already set up boost-root. The repo has already been placed in boost-root/libs/name-of-this-repo, and that's where you run the build. In that case, the docs are output in the current directory, such as name-of-this-repo/doc/html. The existing boost-root is used.
Either of the above choices are possible. The build scripts detect if they are being run from a boost-root or not.
In order to build the documentation, refer to the appropriate sections below:
Linux
Run the linuxdocs.sh script which can be found in the doc/tools directory:
tools/linuxdocs.sh
Mac OSX
Run the osxdocs.sh script which can be found in the doc/tools directory:
tools/osxdocs.sh
Windows
Run the powershell script windowsdocs.ps1 which can be found in the doc/tools directory:
.\tools\windowsdocs.ps1
