How close are we to having a releasable Boost implementation of TR1?
There are also a few interface changes for some Boost components to catch up with, most of which seem implemented in the HEAD already.
I know we are missing the following libs: unordered containers special math functions C99 library
I believe John Maddock and Paul Bristow have a library in the review queue that will go a long way towards providing the math functions, and there have been mutterings about unordered containers over the years, but not sure of their current state. Don't think we have anything in place for C99 though?
There is the issue of packaging the distribution, where John Maddock has has some preliminary work.
Is this a project we could imagine completing with a SoC student or two?
Completing a Boost TR1 would be *very* valuable IMO. BUt I will leave it to John to comment on how SoC student(s) could assist. Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
