I've implemented the suggestions in "new warnings policy". It probably DID catch a few bugs which have probably been in there for years. It wasn't as bad as I thought - mostly tedium and a few hours of testing. But now I have a couple of questions: a) I added <toolset>gcc:<warnings>all # ? <toolset>msvc:<warnings>all # == /W4 To my jamfile. With MSVC 9.0 I now get a blizzard of "deprecation" and "unsafe" warnings. If the policy is updated to address this, I will implement the recommendations. Robert Ramey PS I'm wondering if I should replace the above with something which maximizes the warning level for all compiles. Perhaps just <warnings>all #?
