Boost.Pool is the subject of a 'make-over' by Boost.Guild. (This is some of a test-bed for a process of revision of older, perhaps orphaned, libraries using the relative safety of the sandbox). In order to permit any modification, the original (hand-written?) html documentation has been converted to Quickbook (and somewhat revised) at http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/guild/pool/libs/pool/doc/ You can build the html docs using the jamfile.v2 in the normal way, but you will probably find it more convenient to go direct to the pdf version http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/guild/pool/libs/pool/doc/pool.pdf This is fairly fully hyperlinked, and includes a reference section using Doxygen. Doxygen comments have been added to the header files (from the original html docs). (If you are a Doxygen fan, there is also a Doxyfile for generating Doxygen-style docs in the /doc/Doxygen/ folder). We are now considering some better tests, and perhaps some enhancements to the code. We'd like input from users about: 1 Things missing or wrong from the docs. More up to date references? 2 Things missing (or don't work well) from Pool. 3 New things that you would like (this is not a promise!). 4 Examples of your use. Perhaps you built some during your development that could be used? 5 Better tests. Thanks. Paul PS Don't panic - the release version will not be changed without a mini-review. --- Paul A.
