        Description:         Provides a multitude of I/O-oriented extensions.  Some are extra         manipulators; variants of "std::endl", a resetting manipulator, and a         configurable manipulator.  The library includes a set of base class         templates for wrapping a new stream-buffer type around a stream class.                 Changes from the last interim version (called "more_io_3b.zip"):         * split the manipulator header into several headers         * refined the license statements in some already-affected files                 Changes from the first formal review (called "more_io.zip"):         * refined the interface and implementation of array-streams and         stream-buffer wrappers (including a wrapping example)         * added the null-stream, value-stream, and pointer-stream headers         * added generalizations to the new-line and skip-line manipulators         * added the non-oriented 'reset' and 'form' manipulators         * split the manipulator header into several headers         * changed the license statements

        Description:         The Iostreams Library serves two main purposes:         To allow the easy creation of standard C++ stream and stream         buffer classes for new data sources and sinks.         To provide a convenient interface for defining i/o filters and         attaching them to standard streams and stream buffers.         The library focuses on freeing users from writing boiler plate code         and allowing them instead to create highly reusable components.         In addition to providing an abstract framework the library provides         a number of concrete filters, sources and sinks which serve as example         applications of the library but are also useful in their own right.         These include components for accessing memory-mapped files (based on         work of Craig Henderson) , for file access via operating system file         descriptors, for code conversion, for text filtering with regular         expressions, for line-ending conversion and for compression and         decompression in the zlib, gzip and bzip2 formats.
September 7, 2004    Output Formatters         Author - Reece Dunn  - msclrhd@hotmail.com         Review Manager - John Torjo - john@torjo.com
        Download:         http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/                 boost-sandbox/boost-sandbox/boost/outfmt/ [or]         http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/                 boost-sandbox/boost-sandbox/libs/outfmt/
        Description:         The I/O formatters library provides an easy and customizable way to         input/output arrays, STL arrays, STL collections, sub-arrays from/to         STL streams. It allows you to configure how each element in such an         array will be written to the stream or read from the stream,         while providing reasonable defaults.

        September 17, 2004      Smart Containers         Author - Thorsten Ottosen  - nesotto@cs.auc.dk         Review Manager - Pavol Droba - droba@topmail.dk
        Download:         the boost sandbox: ptr_container
        Description:         The Smart Container Library consists of several container classes         that are capable of storing heap-allocated objects in an exception-safe         manner. The interface of the container classes         effectively hides the underlying pointers so one can         work on objects directly; this indirection is done to make         the classes safer and easier to use. The library can also be customized         to allow, for example,  that a container does not rake ownership of the         stored objects.

        Download:         Boost sandbox         boost/named_params.hpp [and]         libs/utility/doc/named_params.html
        Description:         This library is an attempt to address the problems of positional         parameters by associating each parameter with a keyword         identifier. Using this library, users can identify parameters by name         instead of just argument position, and pass them in any order:                 window* w = new_window("alert2", movable = movability, opacity = 50);

        Download:         available via boost CVS
        Description:         Smart pointers are used to automate memory management by handling the         deletion of dynamically allcoated objects (and other resources).          They assist in ensuring program correctness, exception safety, and         memory integrity.  Policy Pointer is a policy-based smart         pointer framework designed to accomodate the large number of         smart pointer designs.  Through the use of policy classes,         virtually any smart pointer type can be constructed         within this framework.  This library is a Boostification of         the original Loki::SmartPtr type         with significant modifications.

        Description:         The Wave C++ preprocessor library is a Standards         conformant implementation of the mandated C99/C++         preprocessor functionality packed behind a simple to use         interface, which integrates well with the well         known idioms of the Standard Template Library (STL). It uses the         Spirit[4] parser construction library to implement a C++ lexer         with ISO/ANSI Standards conformant preprocessing capabilities.         It exposes an iterator interface, which returns the current         preprocessed token from the input stream. This preprocessed         token is generated on the fly while iterating over the         preprocessor iterator sequence (in the terminology of the STL these         iterators are forward iterators).

        November 4, 2004        Fixed Strings         Author - Reece Dunn - msclrhd@hotmail.com         Review Manager - to be determined
        Download:         boosts-sandbox/boost/fixed_string [or]         boost-sandbox/libs/fixed_string
        Description:         The fixed string library provides buffer overrun protection for static         sized strings (char s[ n ]). It provides a C-style string         interface for compatibility with C code (for example, porting a         C program to C++). There is also a std::string-style         interface using a class based on         flex_string by Andre Alexandrescu with a few limitations due to the         non-resizable nature of the class.
