Hello John, hello Ronald,
could you add boost.context to the review queue please.
boost.context allows to switch between execution contexts. The state of the context which will be left is saved and maybe resumed later. It is a kind of POSIX ucontext (fallback on POSIX platforms for boost.context) but provides assembler for some platforms (faster and some platforms doesn't implement POSIX ucontext because it is deprecaded -> ARM).
where is this package to be found and how is it different from co-routine and maybe fiber? Robert Ramey
