Vicente Botet's header-only option for Boost.System is mostly working, and will be ready to commit to trunk soon.
Cool
One question I'd like feedback on. The proposed macro that enables header-only configuration is BOOST_SYSTEM_INLINED, but BOOST_SYSTEM_HEADER_ONLY seems clearer to me.
"HEADER_ONLY" is clearer. Given that most Boost libraries are header only, it seems as if those that provide an option to deviate from that norm, should do so explicitly. Thus, the name and behavior should be reversed: BOOST_XXXXX_AS_LIBRARY. _____ Rob Stewart robert.stewart@sig.com Software Engineer, Core Software using std::disclaimer; Susquehanna International Group, LLP http://www.sig.com IMPORTANT: The information contained in this email and/or its attachments is confidential.
