It seems to be in use by the following libraries : * json * unordered * interprocess Ideally, we need some consistency here accross the libraries and/or some guidelines for maintainers on which pattern to follow. The name `BOOST_ALL_NO_EMBEDDED_GDB_SCRIPTS` came from a conversation between Niall and myself, with assent from other members of the community including Dmitry. (I can't remember whether here or on the Slack.) I put that macro into use in Unordered and Interprocess, so I assume Niall will ultimately add this same option to Outcome. As far as I remember, this was the decision. The hope was, eventually this macro will be used in more libraries, as they create more pretty printers for their types. Then we can disable the script embedding in all libraries all at once. Thanks, Braden
