[uuid] Issue 9407: help required to merge fix
by Antony Polukhin 01 Oct '14

01 Oct '14

There is an issue with long history https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/9407 That issue is annoying and can be easily fixed. There's even a pull request to fix that issue (https://github.com/boostorg/uuid/pull/2) Could someone take a look at the pull request, comment it and even merge to develop branch? -- Best regards, Antony Polukhin

Licensing issue (TestCmd.py)
by Polhodzik Peter (ext) 01 Oct '14

01 Oct '14

Hi all, Could anyone tell me, why the \boost_1_38_0\tools\build\v2\test\TestCmd.py (TestCmd version 0.02) file in Boost 1.38.0<http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_38_0.html> has Steven Knight's Python license reference, this: # Copyright 2000 Steven Knight # This module is free software, and you may redistribute it and/or modify # it under the same terms as Python itself, so long as this copyright message # and disclaimer are retained in their original form. # # IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, # SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF # THIS CODE, EVEN IF THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH # DAMAGE. # # THE AUTHOR SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT # LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A # PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

All rights reserved. This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. ? It is also unclear which Python or Perl license it refers to ,since there are more licenses versions for both. I know 1.38.0 is an old release, but now I definitely need to have the information about this one. Updating to 1.56.0 is NOT an option to solve the problem this time. Thank you!!

[move] Build failures in develop
by Andrey Semashev 01 Oct '14

Hi, I'm seeing lots of build errors that originate from Boost.Move, such as: In file included from ../libs/log/src/text_file_backend.cpp:41: In file included from ../boost/filesystem/path.hpp:28: In file included from ../boost/iterator/iterator_facade.hpp:12: In file included from ../boost/iterator/interoperable.hpp:11: In file included from ../boost/mpl/or.hpp:23: ../boost/mpl/aux_/nested_type_wknd.hpp:27:10: error: no type named 'type' in 'boost::move_detail::is_rv<boost::rv<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::aux::light_function<void ()> > >' : T::type ~~~^~~~ See the full error logs: http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/marshall-ma… http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-08b… http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-tes… I didn't change Boost.Log for quite some time, so there seems to have been some breaking change. Could this be fixed?
