The version numbers of this releases packages are identical to 4.0.0 (and HQ 4.0.0) but changes the naming convention of Boost libraries. Projects using Boost from these dependencies must add the preprocessor definition BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB and specify the correct library names for Boost when linking.

Boost library names no longer have the build information suffix such as -vc141-mt-x64. The Boost include files are also now in a directory under the include directory named simply boost.
