I am curious to know if Phoenix will ever be released as a Boost library, or is it meant to be forever coupled with Spirit ?
I have avoided it because it has never been released separately or had its documentation appear among the list of Boost libraries. I got the impression that it would be released separately, and expected to see it in Boost 1.44, but evidently that did not happen.
Thomas Heller completed the Proto port last July. Now the next step is to have a mini-review. Then, Boost integration, IFF it passes the mini-review.
Thanks ! I am sure I am not the only one looking forward to seeing it as a library of its own, and using it, if it passes the mini-review.
Me too! There's something holding me back conceptually using Phoenix in contexts where no Spirit parsing is actually taking place.
Is it just because you need to include header from a spirit subdirectory?
In a nutshell, yes. I will just use it when I properly learn it. I've only done some mild Spirit semantic actions with it so far. Other team members who don't follow Boost at all (it's left to me here pretty much) will also get confused when they see Spirit headers being included and no apparent parsing taking place. With it not being a top-level library, they can't quickly get documentation on it either. I know where to dig to get it. Thanks, Pete
