Not sure if this is the proper group for this, but I'm wondering if
anyone has used Boost (for C++) on the Mac, and has any feedback on
how/if it works and under what circumstances.

Thanks.

I've used pieces of it, smart pointers for example. It works. It's
great. It has never caused me problems.

Thanks. I'll have to give it a try.

Yes, and with Boost being so popular and useful, many of its
components (such as its smart pointers) are being incorporated into
the new ANSI/ISO C++, which is expected to be ratified next year.
