Older cmake wiki stuff, may not be reliable, needs converting to rst docs

How Do I…

• Build Boost with CMake?

• Tune the CMake build configuration (verbosity, tests, static/shared, debug/release, single/multi-threaded)?

• Test Boost with CMake?

• Build/preprocess individual libraries/files with CMake?

• Add a Boost Library with CMake?

• Add a Compiled Library with CMake?

• Add Regression Tests with CMake?

• Modularize a Library with CMake?

• Build a Binary Installer with CMake?
