As Fiber is not yet officially part of Boost, it is necessary to embed it in an existing Boost source tree.
      The downloaded
      Fiber library can be placed into an existing Boost source tree by moving
      the top-level Fiber directory to libs/fiber under
      the top-level Boost directory, then further moving libs/fiber/include/boost/fiber
      (in other words, the Fiber library's include/boost/fiber directory) to boost/fiber under
      the top-level Boost directory.
    
On a Posix system such as Linux or OS X, you may use symlinks instead.
      Create a symlink from the Boost directory's libs/fiber to
      the top-level Fiber directory, e.g.:
    
cd ~/boost_1_61_0 ln -s ~/boost-fiber-master libs/fiber
      Then create a symlink from the Boost directory's boost/fiber to
      the Fiber library's include/boost/fiber directory:
    
cd boost ln -s ../libs/fiber/include/boost/fiber fiber
      For some versions of the Boost.Build system, it was important to use a relative
      symlink of that form for boost/fiber.
    
Once the Fiber library has been overlaid (or symlinked) into the Boost source tree this way, the Boost.Build system can build it like any other Boost library. In particular:
cd ~/boost_1_61_0 ./bootstrap.sh ./b2 libs/fiber/test
On Windows, the commands would look more like:
cd /D %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\boost_1_61_0 bootstrap b2 libs\fiber\test
