Is phoenix an official Boost library ? I do not see it listed among the Boost libraries for 1.40 or 1.41 although I do see it in the pdf documentation for Boost libraries put together by John Maddock.
Phoenix is an official Boost library (see: http://lists.boost.org/boost-announce/2008/10/0205.php). AFAIK it's being currently rewritten before it gets added as a full citizen to the Boost SVN. For now please use Phoenix V2 which is located under the Spirit directory.
If Phoenix is an official Boost library should not its documentation be listed in the libraries page of a Boost distribution ? Otherwise there is no indication it even exists, except for an occasional mention in the Spirit docs. That can not be a good thing either for end-user's or the Phoenix developers.
IIRC, Phoenix was reviewed and accepted on the condition that it be reimplemented on top of Proto. That hasn't happened yet, and so Phoenix has not been merged to trunk. The old version of Phoenix still exists as a part Spirit. HTH, -- Eric Niebler BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
