I have recently used BOOST_NO_NUMERIC_LIMITS_LOWEST to act as a proxy for support of numeric_limits<T>:: max_digits10 (as correctly suggested by John Maddock).
Do we need yet another new macro for this, say
BOOST_NO_NUMERIC_LIMITS_MAX_DIGITS10
or continue to use BOOST_NO_NUMERIC_LIMITS_LOWEST as a proxy.
I think the latter will suffice (despite its unfortunate name for this task).
But I think an addition to the configuration macro reference docs would be useful.
Actually, this is one C++11 macro that Marshall missed for renaming. Maybe if we asked him nicely ;-) he would volunteer to rename this one to BOOST_NO_CXX11_NUMERIC_LIMITS?
Please Marshall ... ;-) Paul PS It will still be useful to include the CXX11 items added to the docs, so that anyone searching the page boost Macro reference http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_50_0/libs/config/doc/html/boost_config/boost... will get to the right place quickly. Can anyone remind me what else was added?
