Boost Endian library To experiment with the Endian library, various other boost libraries must be available. So you need to clone or install a current version of Boost if you have notalready done so. Boost.Endian is a header-only library, so there is no need to run a build for it. These instructions do assume bootstrap has been run so that b2 is in your path environmental variable.
