[review][fixed_string] FixedString review starts today
by Joaquin M López Muñoz 24 Nov '19

24 Nov '19

The Boost formal review of Krystian Stasiowski and Vinnie Falco's FixedString library starts today November 25 and extends up to December 4. Description FixedString provides a dynamically resizable string of characters with compile-time fixed capacity and contiguous embedded storage in which the characters are placed within the string object itself. Its API closely resembles that of std::string. Repo and docs GitHub repository: https://github.com/18/fixed_string Online docs: https://18.github.io/doc/fixed_string Review questions Here are some questions you might want to answer in your review: - What is your evaluation of the design? - What is your evaluation of the implementation? - What is your evaluation of the documentation? - What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? - Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems? - How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? - Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain? And finally, every review should answer this question: - Do you think the library should be accepted as a Boost library? I invite you to submit your review, either publicly to the developers or the users lists, or else, if for whatever reason you don't want to go public, directly to me. Thank you for investing your time on reviewing Krystian and Vinnie's work and for contributing to the advancement of Boost. Best regards, Joaquín M López Muñoz Review manager for candidate Boost.FixedString

The Boost formal review of Zach Laine's STLInterfaces library will take place December 10 - 19, 2019. Please consider participating in this review. The success of Boost depends on our robust library review process. STLInterfaces is a C++14 library targeting ISO standardization. The following templates are provided, all C++20-friendly: 1. iterator_interface - a modern version of the iterator_facade and iterator_adaptor parts of Boost.Iterator 2. view_interface - a pre-C++20 implementation of C++20's eponymous feature 3. container_interface - a tool to eliminate boilerplate when writing new containers Code: https://github.com/tzlaine/stl_interfaces Docs: https://tzlaine.github.io/stl_interfaces/doc/html/index.html Thanks, Barrett Adair
