This one was deprecated as well long time ago. I can put it back, but it's empty. I'll reinstate it for now.
Assuming that it really is empty, I removed those includes from Boost.Math, but now get:
Most of these issues are due to this test modules using 5+ years deprecated interfaces, which I'd like to remove now. Since you never bothered to switch to updated interfaces, they came up now.
'BOOST_MESSAGE': identifier not found
BOOST_MESSAGE is deprecated. Correct name is BOOST_TEST_MESSAGE.
'unit_test_framework': the symbol to the left of a '::' must be a type
unit_test_framework is deprecated. Correct name is unit_test
A clean build still gives: boost::unit_test::callback0<struct boost::unit_test::ut_detail::unused>
That's ... strange. I removed the header which defines this template. I am not sure how is it possible for you to observe this.
BTW you can easily test these issues for yourself by building the Boost.Math
I'll do later tonight.
tests - frankly all of my "boost time" the last few days has been taken up with chasing down Boost.Test issues
You can easily switch back your local trunk to version of Boost.Test from couple weeks ago.
- and I'm sure I'm not alone.
I actually hope that there are few instances of deprecated interfaces being used. I did not hear any mention of them for a long time.
Last time this happened - not that long ago as it happens - I rewrote a bunch of code to not use Boost.Test anymore. I now see that as a very wise move, even though there should be much better uses for my time.
We live in a same boat. We both need to do some development and we can't always be in sync. For your development I'd recommend you to test against release branch version of Boost.Test. I will not push my changes into release until full regression test run is clear. If you do not mind I can make changes tonight to your test modules so that they compile, unless you insist you want to use deprecated interfaces. Regards, Gennadiy
