The authors originally developed and tested this library on:

See the library regressions test results for detailed information on supported compilers and platforms. Check the library regression test Jamfile.v2 for any special configuration that might be required for a specific compiler.

This library is composed of header files only. Therefore there is no pre-compiled object file which needs to be installed. Programmers can simply instruct the compiler where to find the library header files (-I option on GCC, /I option on MSVC, etc) and compile code using the library.

The maximum number of functions to overload is given by the BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX configuration macro. The maximum number of function parameters for each of the specified function type is given by the BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_ARITY_MAX configuration macro. All configuration macros have appropriate default values when they are left undefined.
