[boost] [scope] Scope review starts on November 26th
by Дмитрий Архипов 24 Nov '23

24 Nov '23

Dear Boost community. The peer review of the proposed Boost.Scope will start on 26th of November and continue until December 5th. Boost.Scope is a small library implementing utilities defined in <experimental/scope> from C++ Extensions for Library Fundamentals v3 with a few extensions. Namely, the library contains: * A number of scope guards for various use cases. * A unique resource wrapper that automatically frees the resource on destruction. * Utilities for wrapping POSIX-like file descriptors in the unique resource wrapper. You can find the source code of the library at https://github.com/Lastique/scope and read the documentation at https://lastique.github.io/scope/libs/scope/doc/html/index.html. The library is header-only and thus it is fairly easy to try it out. In addition, the library can be used with Conan and vcpkg (see its README for instructions on how to do that). Finally, there's a single header version suitable for Compiler Explorer (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Lastique/scope/single-header/include/boos…). As the library is not domain-specific, everyone is very welcome to contribute a review either by sending it to the Boost mailing list, or me personally. In your review please state whether you recommend to reject or accept the library into Boost, and whether you suggest any conditions for acceptance. Thanks in advance for your time and effort! Dmitry Arkhipov, Staff Engineer at The C++ Alliance.
