1、下載：
網址：http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.59.0/
選擇：boost_1_59_0.7z或者boost_1_59_0.zip （Windows 8.1企業版操作系統）;
boost_1_59_0.tar.bz2 ( Linux內核操作系統——Ubuntu 14.04（編譯器使用自帶的GCC 4.8.2）)。
2、編譯：
- 2.1 Ubuntu 14.04操作系統編譯安裝boost 1.59.0：
2.1.1 快速安裝Boost：
在Linux內核的操作系統下安裝boost 1.59.0很容易，最簡單的方式是在Boost解壓縮后的目錄下直接執行命令：
./bootstrap.sh ./b2 install
第一條命令語句booststrap.sh是編譯前的配置工作，第二條命令b2開始真正的編譯並安裝Boost。由於未指定額外選項，Boost將編譯Release版本的庫文件，把頭文件安裝到/usr/local/include,庫文件安裝到/usr/local/lib。
2.1.2 完整安裝Boost：
完整編譯Boost，使用buildtype選項指定編譯類型（如不指定默認使用release模式），在bootstrap.sh之后執行如下命令：
./b2 --buildtype=complete install
這樣將開始對Boost的完整編譯，安裝所有調試版、發行版的靜態庫和動態庫。
2.1.3 定制安裝Boost：
完整編譯Boost費時費力，在實際開發中這些庫也不會都用到，因此，Boost也允許用戶自行選擇要編譯的庫。執行命令：
./b2 --show-libraries
可查看所有必須編譯才能使用的庫。
在完全編譯的基礎上，可使用--with或者--without選項打開或者關閉某個庫的編譯，如：
./b2 --with-date_time --buildtype=complete install
將僅編譯安裝date_time庫。
一般可使用如下安裝命令：
sudo ./b2 link=static install #編譯安裝所有靜態庫
- 2.2 Windows 8.1操作系統安裝配置boost 1.59.0：
直接在官網：http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/1.59.0/ ，下載：boost_1_59_0-msvc-12.0-64.exe，然后解壓配置即可。
boost_1_59_0-msvc-12.0-64.exe Visual Studio 2013 64位版本的boost庫。
error 解決：
一：使用需要python庫
否則出現如下error：
./boost/python/detail/wrap_python.hpp:50:23: fatal error: pyconfig.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

使用
sudo apt-get install python-dev
bzlib.h: No such file or directory
理論上，本文適用於boost的各個版本，尤其是最新版本1.48.0；適用於各種C++編譯器，如VC6.0（部分庫不支持），VS2003，VS2005，VS2008，VS2010，gcc，C++ Builder等。
1.下載boost源文件
http://www.boost.org/users/download/
2.安裝
cd /home/boost_1_48_0/
首先需要編譯bjam： ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/home/boost-1.48.0/sdk/ 設置庫安裝路徑
通過bjam編碼boost庫： ./bjam install
3.設置環境變量
在/etc/profile.d新建可執行文件boost.sh,添加文件內容：
#!/bin/sh BOOST_INCLUDE=/home/boost-1.48.0/sdk/include/boost BOOST_LIB==/home/boost-1.48.0/sdk/lib export BOOST_INCLUDE BOOST_LIB
命令行執行：source /etc/profile.d/boost.sh
以后在編譯程序時，只需要用：-I$BOOST_INCLUDE -L$BOOST_LIB 即可，還要使用-l指定了鏈接庫。
然后， /etc/ld.so.conf 文件添加so庫的環境變量 /home/boost-1.48.0/sdk/lib（主要關鍵問題）
修改完成后，通過ldconfig命令進行重啟
4.遇到的問題及解決方案
安裝過程出現很多和bz及Python庫相關的錯誤，解決方案如下
命令方式
sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev yum install python-dev或 yum install libbz2-dev yum install python-dev

windows下編譯安裝boost.
先生成bjam，要在vs附帶的命令行下執行才可以，在cmd下運行bat可能會卡主不動
bjam stage --toolset=msvc-9.0 --without-graph --without-graph_parallel --without-math --without-mpi --without-python --without-serialization --without-wave --stagedir="E:\boost_1_49" link=static runtime-link=static threading=multi debug release
默認為32位版本，編譯成64位：
bjam stage --toolset=msvc-9.0 --without-graph --without-graph_parallel --without-math --without-mpi --without-python --without-serialization --without-wave --stagedir="E:\boost_1_49_new" link=static runtime-link=static threading=multi address-model=64 debug release
