using parts of Boost

I know that it is, of course, possible only to use the parts of Boost that you want to use, but my point was, I want to keep my project folder slim. The project should be able to be checked out with all depe开发者_JS百科ndencies, and I just noticed while unpacking boost that it is around 33 thousand files and more than 250 megabytes, and I am using one single class of it (tokenizer).

Is it possible only to include a portion of Boost into a project?

You can use bcp to extract only the subset of boost required by your project.

Sure, but you would have to look through and copy all of the dependancies from tokenizer as well (recursively). It is probably going to be a rather big pain. I also don't know enough about licenses to know if they are ok with you distributing it.
