Draft zip/tarballs for the 1.32 release are available from the following locations: http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/boost_1_32_0.tar.bz2 http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/boost_1_32_0.tar.gz http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/boost_1_32_0.zip These are NOT the tarballs that will be released; rather, they are the first probe aiming to uncover whatever problems we are still unaware of (including problems with archives preparation), or, if there are none, to confirm that pending a few issues below, we are finally ready to release. For your convenience, the unpacked contents is also available online at http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/1_32_0_draft/. You can consider this to be a draft version of post-1.32 Boost website. KNOWN ISSUES ------------ The following is a list of known issues present in the tarballs which grant them their draft status: 1) A small number of unmarked test failures (but no regressions). 2) A small number of broken links as follows: doc/html/date_time/doxy.html: broken link: ../../../boost/date_time/dst_transition_day_generators.hpp, broken link: ../../../boost/date_time/local_time_base.hpp doc/html/date_time/posix_time.html: broken link: ../../../libs/date_time/doc/time_duration_inherit.png doc/html/libraries.html: broken link: ../boost.pdf libs/libraries.htm: broken link: ../boost.docbook, broken link: ../boost.fo, broken link: ../boost.pdf libs/numeric/conversion/doc/converter.html: broken link: udt_support.html libs/numeric/conversion/doc/converter_policies.html: broken link: udt_support.html 3) No documentation in PDF format ("boost.pdf"), due to some build issues (I'll post separate email on this). 4) Placeholder pages in place of the revoked pre-1.32 MPL documentation. If you encounter any issues that are not in the above list, please report them here! TESTING ------- To run regression tests on the archives, you need to: 1) Grab the archive for your platform from one of the above locations. 2) Grab the latest "regression.py" from http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/regression.py 3) Put the archive and "regression.py" in the same directory and invoke the latter with the following command line: python regression.py --local=<archive name> --runner=<your runner id> --toolsets=<your toolsets> [<more options as needed>] For example, python regression.py --local=boost_1_32_0.zip --runner=metacomm --toolsets=msvc,vc7,vc-7_1,cw-8_3 --pjl-toolset=vc-7_1 The results will be automatically uploaded to ftp://fx.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/boost_1_32_0/. Finally, thanks in advance to everybody who will be looking at this! -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
