I haven't tried boost through CPM, but in the wiki there is an example: https://github.com/TheLartians/CPM.cmake/wiki/More-Snippets#boost-via-boost-cmake so it seems that it can
It doesn't support versions. I live at head so I don't care about that, I want the latest version available. No idea about Windows Server Core Docker, I don't use it but according to the bug tracker the person who complained about that actually just had a failed installation. I use vcpkg in manifest mode + cmake with github's actions and don't have issues with it being any slower than it would normally be building my dependencies the first time. The trick is to treat dependencies as artifacts to be cached, an option most CI services have and a pretty common strategy for CI in general.
It wrong for conan too, you have this script to run conan from cmake : https://github.com/conan-io/cmake-conan
xmake already supports c/c++ package management well. https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake
Sadly yes. Here's the relevant github issue for Docker (and I get the impression that it is Docker's fault rather than vcpkg's) and it seems to have got basically no attention.
I published this later to achieve the same thing: https://github.com/Orphis/boost-cmake (though I lack time to upgrade it to recent versions now...).
