I've just regenerated the files again and Jeffrey's problem is gone. Guess we'd need to #define YY_NO_UNISTD_H to fix the other problem. I've added that to Jamfile and the files seems to still build.
Should I commit the regenerated files and Jamfile changes?
Sure.
Done.
Were you able to check it on VC 7.1?
No. I'd appreciate if you could try there.
We'll deprecate it in 1.32.0 (when, hopefully, we will have a new GraphViz parser that works well) and remove it afterwards.
How the new parser will be implemented?
Spirit.
Is it written yet? Would be interesting to see.
Granted, they've dropped support for older, broken compilers, so someone will still be getting hurt by this.
Right. OTOH, I start to wonder if BGL should drop support for old compilers as well. (borland and vc6 are marked unusable already). There seem to be a lot of workaround inside BGL which means even reading the code hard. - Volodya
