Boost 1_30.1 was defective and pulled for Boost 1_30.2. The latest version is 1.31. I haven't tried building it with DMC, but maybe someone else has.

The current release of Boost has a config file for DMC, and some DMC workarounds, but large parts fail to compile. The main stumbling block has been the preprocessor library. However, Daniel James has announced today that he ported the boost preprocessor library to digital mars. If this is correct, then as soon as his patch is applied (which will have to wait til after the upcoming release) a good deal of boost should work -- or, at least, people can start submitting DMC patches for various libraries.

Since doing this, I've been playing a little with the type_traits library. The attached patch is only a small improvement, there's still plenty to do. It fixes is_convertible work for some cases, but it still has problems with some user defined conversions. It also contains a possible fix to get is_enum working, and activates the correct version for some other traits classes.

That's great. Thank you all!
