Very good job. The only part I think I've not understood completely is the issues section: particularly the sentence
"The only option I can think of is to go ahead and define the corresponding version macro and have the code deal with the multiple defs."
Considering, for instance, Comeau with _MSC_VER defined, you mean user code would need to do:
#if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_CXX_COMO, == ...) && \ (defined _MSC_VER && _MSC_VER == ...)
? That seems acceptable to me.
Close... The second use would also use the standard macros. Hence: #if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_CXX_COMO, == BOOST_VERSION_NUMBER(?,?,?)) &&\ BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_CXX_MSVC, == BOOST_VERSION_NUMBER(?,?,?)) In one of the previous discussions Dave mentioned that optimizing the BOOST_WORKAROUND macro to be more terse. For example: #if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_CXX_COMO,==,?,?,?) &&\ BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_CXX_MSVC,==,?,?,?) Or something like that :-) But that would be work to do after the core config changes are done. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
