For the examples and tests, Beast provides build scripts for Boost.Build To build the documentation, examples, tests, and benchmarks it is
(bjam) and CMake (Windows). It is possible to generate Microsoft Visual necessary to first obtain the boost "superproject" along with all
Studio project files using CMake by executing these commands from of the boost libraries. Instructions for doing so may be found on
the root of the repository: the [Boost Wiki](https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Getting-Started).
These commamnds will build the programs and documentation that come
with Beast (omit the cxxflags parameter when building using MSVC):
``` ```
cd boost # The directory containing the boost superproject and libraries
b2 libs/beast/test cxxflags="-std=c++11" # bjam must be in your $PATH
b2 libs/beast/example cxxflags="-std=c++11"
b2 libs/beast/doc
```
On Windows platforms only, CMake may be used to generate a Visual Studio
solution and a set of Visual Studio project files using these commands:
```
cd boost # The directory containing the boost superproject and libraries
cd libs/beast
mkdir bin mkdir bin
cd bin cd bin
cmake .. # for 32-bit Windows builds cmake .. # for 32-bit Windows builds, or
cmake -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" .. # for 64-bit Windows builds (VS2015), or
