Oh, do you have an example for me to see where you think the new version is more complicated than the previous one?
[...] If that is the case you can add a warning in the library to not compile with old versions of boost. someone at stackoverflow, suggested to open the process asynchronously and do a status check. (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12329065/how-to-bind-program-termination-...) Seemed like an ovekill. I am glad it is a bug instead.
There is actually a note at <http://www.highscore.de/boost/process0.5/boost_process/tutorial.html#boost_process.tutorial.synchronous_i_o> to inform users about that bug in Boost.Iostreams. Maybe it shouldn't be a note but a warning or something else which can't be overlooked easily? :) Boris
