Who'd like to wave goodbye to #ifdef BOOST_MSVC6_* workarounds?
Is there a 'do nothing' option here? Ie., leave the codebase unchanged but no longer declare MSVC6 support, and so no longer require authors to support it?
LOL, I suspect that's the current situation ;-)
Agree - so let's just leave the code as is (perhaps adding a stronger "you're entirely on your own with VC6" rider?) The risks of removing are not worth the effort. (And whoever suggested it would be fun needs to get out more ;-) Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
