Hello,
The Boost.Thread version in trunk does not allow to use simple mutex as it was possible before:
#include <boost/thread/mutex.hpp> #include <iostream>
int main() { boost::mutex l; { boost::unique_lock<boost::mutex> g(l); std::cout << "Test" << std::endl; } }
Was working fine without linking with 1.48 and 1.46 but now it fails with current trunk version requiring dependency on Boost.System.
Hi, I was not aware that Boost.Thread was working as a header only library. I have added some support to report errors following the C++11 standard, using Boost.System. You need to link with Boost.System library. Is this an issue?
It breaks some code and breaks at least Boost.Locale.
Is there some break other than the need to link with?
Is this change intentional or a bug? If it is intentional I'd like to know to fix Boost.Locale if not then is it possible to fix it.
It was intentional. I hope that you just need to link in addition with boost_system. Aside, I proposed Beman a patch to make Boost.System header-only when I tried to make Boost.Chrono header-only but he didn't accepted it :(. I'm trying to make some changes that are code compatible, but I was unable to avoid the link issue.
