Boost.CMake

Boost.Cmake is an alternative build system for Boost based on CMake, a cross-platform, open-source make system. This system is designed to build Boost as it appears in its official monolithic SVN repository.

A modularized version of Boost, also using CMake—where each library and component lives in its own Git repository—is being developed separately by the Ryppl project.
