propensity score by "boost" (Matthias Schonlau version) could not load plugin

[Meng Song]

Dear all,
I'm using your "boost" command (developed by Matthias Schonlau) to obtain propensity score, but kept having this error "Could not load plugin: /Applications/Stata/ado/base/b/boost64.dll".
I'm using a Stata/MP 14.0 for Mac (64-bit), and copied the boost.ado, boost.hlp, boost64.dll files to "/Applications/Stata/ado/base/b/". Here is the command:
. capture program drop boost_plugin
. program boost_plugin, plugin using("/Applications/Stata/ado/base/b/boost64.dll")
I don't understand why the error kept showing up. After searching a lot on the internet and even trying boost32.dll and boost.dll, revising the directory, unfortunately I didn't find any solution works. Would you kindly help me, please? Thank you very much.

Dear Marcos,
Many thanks for your kind reply. This is very helpful. I just found out the reason why it didn't work. The boost command currently doesn't work on a Mac, so should try on a window system.
