Boost 1.64 Unit Test compilation failure

I'm starting to go through the tutorial for boost unit testing presented here.

Using my initial code:

#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE my_first test
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

when I compile it I receive the following error:

Error   C2143   syntax error: missing ',' before '<'    c:\boost_1_64_0\boost\test\utils\basic_cstring\compare.hpp

I've compiled boost myself and I'm using version 1.64 due to other dependency constraints. I'm also using Visual Studio 2017 Community.

How do I solve this problem please?

Thanks in advance.

I must have had a corrupt Boost install as after I rebuilt it worked successfully! I don't understand how boost may have become corrupted though as it was working fine.

Hmmmm...technology!
