The Boost.Thread version in trunk does not allow to use simple mutex as it was possible before:
#include <boost/thread/mutex.hpp> #include <iostream>
int main() { boost::mutex l; { boost::unique_lock<boost::mutex> g(l); std::cout << "Test" << std::endl; } }
Was working fine without linking with 1.48 and 1.46 but now it fails with current trunk version requiring dependency on Boost.System.
Hi,
I was not aware that Boost.Thread was working as a header only library. I have added some support to report errors following the C++11 standard, using Boost.System. You need to link with Boost.System library. Is this an issue?
Till now I could use Boost.Locale without dependencies on Thread when it was working without ICU. It is not a problem to add a dependency. I just thought if there is a some kind of lightweight mutex that can be used without boost.thread? I can bring something on my own (it is really 20 lines of code) just maybe there is something ready for roll... If not I'll add dependency on system.
It breaks some code and breaks at least Boost.Locale.
Is there some break other than the need to link with?
No, it there is not other problems. Artyom
