68        This library is composed of header files only. Therefore there is no pre-compiled
69        object file which needs to be installed. Programmers can simply instruct
70        the compiler where to find the library header files (<code class="computeroutput"><span class="special">-</span><span class="identifier">I</span></code> option on GCC, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">I</span></code> option on MSVC, etc) and compile code
71        using the library.
72      </p>
73<p>
74        The maximum number of functions to overload is given by the <code class="computeroutput">BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX</code>
75        configuration macro. The maximum number of function parameters for each of
76        the specified function type is given by the <code class="computeroutput">BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_ARITY_MAX</code>
77        configuration macro. All configuration macros have appropriate default values
78        when they are left undefined.
