Clone the whole boost project, which includes the individual Boost projects as submodules (see boost+git doc):
git clone https://github.com/boostorg/boost
cd boost
git submodule update --init
The Boost Graph Library is located in libs/graph/.
Boost Graph Library is mostly made of headers but also contains some compiled components. Here are the build commands:
./bootstrap.sh <- compile b2
./b2 headers <- just installs headers
./b2 <- build compiled components
Note: The Boost Graph Library cannot currently be built outside of Boost itself.
Running tests
First, make sure you are in libs/graph/test.
You can either run all the 300+ tests listed in Jamfile.v2 or run a single test:
../../../b2 <- run all tests
../../../b2 cycle_canceling_test <- single test
You can also check the regression tests reports.
