Description

When I compile with -DWT_CPP17_FILESYSTEM_IMPLEMENTATION="std", compilation fails because the file WDocRootDataInfo.C (introduced fairly recently) uses Boost.Filesystem directly instead of using your feature-flag-aware cpp17::filesystem.

The fix is trivial. I submitted a pull request on GitHub and also attached that diff as a patch file in this issue
