I'm very happy to hear that you still find my Boost book (Beyond the

C++ Library - An Introduction to Boost) useful. I agree that a new

revision is needed, but have to admit that I don't currently have one

planned.

Also note that there are a couple of other Boost books out there:

* C++ Template Metaprogramming: Concepts, Tools, and Techniques from

Boost and Beyond, by David Abrahams and Aleksey Gurtovoy.
...
...
* The Boost Graph Library: User Guide and Reference Manual, by Jeremy

G. Siek, Lie-Quan Lee, and Andrew Lumsdaine.

Keep reading!

Thanks for a good book. My copy's now sitting on a colleague's desk
...
who seems to be finding it useful also.

Agree that C++ Template Metaprogramming is a good book. I read that

one late last year pretty much start to finish on a week's holiday in

Menorca, Spain. I have a very understanding partner :) Trouble is I
...
don't have an immediate use for the techniques presented in the book
...
so I'll not use it and consequently I'll forget it. Maybe I'm too set
...
in runtime dispatch ways? The whole thing led nicely to a discussion
...
of DSELs and Boost.Spirit which is why I want to use Spirit2 so much
...
as I have a large variety of file formats I want to parse for an
...
upcoming application.

...
Learning the Boost Graph Library is on the horizon for me too...

Another boost book we are expecting is boost proto. It is a great library.

So far, I am referring to the link proto_doc_pdf http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=boost_proto-1.37.zip&directory=PDF%20Documentation&  for the nice pdf documentation.

May be, Eric will oblige us by penning down the greatest library in boost: proto in a book form in very near future.

Thanks,

Chandra
