This whole discussion may be a bit of a red herring. I wonder how many Boost libraries still depend on assert for testing (as distinct from asserts in compiled libraries)? Many use Boost.Test.
Did a quick survey... Libraries that use assert() in test files: conversion dynamic_bitset function graph integer iterator program_options python random regex serialization spirit spirit/phoenix utility variant Libraries which use assert() in example files: (Sometimes examples are used as tests.) algorithm/minmax format graph iterator mpl multi_array random rational regex serialization signals spirit thread Libraries which use assert() in source files: (Should probably be using BOOST_ASERT.) filesystem program_options python regex serialization signals thread And finally there are some number of headers which use assert(). Which also likely should be using BOOST_ASSERT. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq
