Should Boost have policy to clear these warnings?
Thoughts?
Personally I'd be opposed to setting such a policy for all libraries.
The question needs to be reformulated. We already have a policy to clear warnings in the builds of compiled libraries, and had a sprint a few years ago that eliminated most or maybe even all of those warnings. Where I'm having a problem is headers like lexical_cast.hpp (and its implementation headers) that shadow "n", "str", and "ch". What do we tell users who don't want to turn the warnings off? --Beman
