I appreciate a lot boost libraries, but sometimes I think the libraries are "expert level ideas", and that C++ is lacking basic blocks like network, threads, processes, data-bases, and a GUI. Not that I have much time, but I'm ready to help a bit in thread/process ideas.
Hi Ion, I am new to boost but I think the expert level ideas are the foundation on which to build real blocks and this probably will accelerate soon network ----------- the future boost::aio will be a big advancement for the app developer threads/processes --------------------------- You should ping Kevlin and see if he can help. You're alreadly pushing this with your library. databases --------------- This probably needs a reflection library first. What I would find useful is using the sql db definition as a file to parse and then generate automatically all the db interfaces GUI ------ First you need a solid c++ graphics library like vector-agg. I will ping the author Web ------ I'd like to see a web applications library on top of boost::aio . I am trying to work on this !
