Where can one find guidelines on how to deprecate things in Boost? What is the proper way to check that code using Boost is clean?
There is no standard for doing this. Right now, it's whatever each library author decides to do.
If someone would like to volunteer to document best practice on the Wiki though that would be great ;-)
OK - I hope this might be within my skill set? Shall I start with a new thread asking for views? Or shall I dream up and post up a 'strawman' proposal for others to shoot at? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
