Hi! I want to test these sorting algorithms, and I find that the readme says it is a include only lib. However, after #include "boost/sort/sort.hpp" in this repo, I got an error:

path/sort/include/boost/sort/spreadsort/spreadsort.hpp:26:10: fatal error: 'boost/type_traits.hpp' file not found
#include <boost/type_traits.hpp>
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Colin,

You need to download the entire boost repo (not just sort), and put it in your path, and then it should work. What we meant is you shouldn't have to compile anything as long as you downloaded the boost source. Boost likes to have the sublibraries depend on boost includes where possible, which is why it works that way.
