I want to use Boost.Xpressive in my C++ homework, and contain it in my source. But the whole boost header file is 70MB+, so is there any standalone xpressive distribution that contains only dependent files?
Use bcp
. http://www.boost.org/tools/bcp/index.html.
it allows you to pull a header and all of its dependencies into a separate directory. Which will be much smaller than the whole boost library!
I don't know specifically, but the command line you are looking for is probably something like this:
bcp xpressive /foo
