String Interoperability Experiments Includes support for the new C++11 character and string types. Code is suitable for both C++03 and C++11 compilers. Code is experimental and NOT SUITABLE FOR PRODUCTION WORK. To experiment with the library, various other boost libraries must be available. Here is one way to create such a setup: cd boost-root/libs git clone git://github.com/Beman/string-interoperability.git interop cd ../boost mklink /d interop ..\libs\interop\include\boost\interop As a confidence test, the following should build bjam, build various libraries and then run the regression tests. Windows (assumes bootstrap has been run): cd boost-root/libs/interop/test ..\..\..\bjam POSIX-like systems (assumes bootstrap has been run): cd boost-root/libs/interop/test ../../../bjam
