At this point in time (with GCC 6.2 as my default compiler in my development environment), I'd use std::shared_ptr, and fall back to boost::shared_ptr for environments without C++11 support.
How would you fall back to support boost::shared_ptr ?
With something as simple as:
#if __cplusplus >= 201103L // use std::shared_ptr ... #else // use boost::shared_ptr ... #endif
Wouldn't you need to duplicate the above every time you are using shared pointers ?
That depends on the granularity of the conditional block (something between conditionalizing a single token and including an entire header). What works best depends on the specific context. In Boost.Python there aren't that many places in need of conditionalizing. Most code is so generic it doesn't even know or care whether it's passing shared pointers around.
