//Piece of code working for me with Boost LIB usage
//-----------------------------------------------------
#include 
#include 
//---    
using namespace boost::filesystem;
//---
struct sysinfo info;
sysinfo( &info );
//---
space_info si = space(".");
//---
unsigned num_cpu = std::thread::hardware_concurrency();
//---
ifstream  cpu_freq("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq");
ifstream cpu_temp("/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp");
//---
std::string cpunumber = to_string(num_cpu);
std::string cpufrequency = cpu_freq.str();
std::string cputemp = cpu_temp.str();
std::string mem_size = to_string( (size_t)info.totalram *     (size_t)info.mem_unit );
std::string disk_available = to_string(si.available);
std::string fslevel = to_string( (si.available/si.capacity)*100 );
