Old code that uses format strings still works as it did before. This is committed to trunk and will not be part of the forthcoming 1.35 release.
Thanks so much! It *WON'T* be part of 1.35? Why not? A couple of closed-source libraries I use also compile boost into their binaries, which means that if they ever upgrade to 1.35 in the future I won't be able to use this great new feature.
That's right. 1.35 is frozen for release. Critical bug fixes only, I'm afraid. You can still get the latest xpressive from trunk. It's a header-only library, so there's no need to worry about binary incompatibilities with 1.35. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
