[VS2017][release] vswhere.exe
by Mateusz Loskot 06 Apr '17

06 Apr '17

Hi, This is regarding issues with locating VS 2017 toolset(s). >From CMake ml, I learned about vswhere utility being developed by Microsoft https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere vswhere.exe (390 KB) is downloadable from https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere/releases I'm not sure how exactly, but perhaps it would solve some of the Boost.Build's headache (eg. particular PowerShell version required). For example, it can find all VS versions I've got installed (10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 14.0, 15.0): vswhere.exe -legacy find a particular version: vswhere -legacy -version [11.0,12.0) Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

[mailing list] No Reply-To in messages?

Hi, Sometimes I can see messages from the mailing list that have no Reply-To header. For example, this is the headers from a recent email from the ML: Delivered-To: andrey.semashev(a)gmail.com Received: by 10.223.171.174 with SMTP id s43csp1184445wrc; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 04:54:11 -0700 (PDT) X-Received: by 10.233.239.75 with SMTP id d72mr28079608qkg.313.1490097251746; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 04:54:11 -0700 (PDT) Return-Path: <andrey.a.davydov(a)gmail.com> Received: from mail-qk0-x233.google.com (mail-qk0-x233.google.com.

Is it possible to ensure that every email from the ML contains boost(a)lists.boost.org in its Reply-To header? PS: I'm not a guru in email protocols, so if there is another more appropriate way of doing this then that would be fine with me.

Official boost macro to determine endianess?
by Frédéric Bron 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

What is the official boost macro to determine endianess? And what is the header to include to get it? I cannot find any help in the documentation of boost.endian but I can find those macros by grepping in boost: BOOST_LITTLE_ENDIAN, BOOST_BIG_ENDIAN, BOOST_ENDIAN_BIG_BYTE, BOOST_ENDIAN_BIG_WORD, BOOST_ENDIAN_LITTLE_BYTE, BOOST_ENDIAN_LITTLE_WORD, BOOST_PDP_ENDIAN Thanks, Frédéric
