How to change file ownership using boost library?

Question

I want to change file ownership using boost library, like chown(). Is there any api for this?

This question was closed before, incorrectly. Please note that this is about ownership, not permissions. (cf `chmod` vs `chown`). — MSalters, Sep 02 '16 at 08:16

It doesn't exist. Boost's Filesystem doesn't concern itself with owners (or ACLs, for that matter).
