I don't believe that there's anything else like this on the web. :-) [1]https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/Guidelines/MaintenanceGuidelines now updated using your suggestions. Is this better? Hard to be much better than it was! Still a couple of caveats. I'd like to see C4996 mention that POSIX has not deprecated these please. The Visual C++ message is, perhaps, deceptive and people may fear that they are using things that are no longer part of POSIX. C4710 mention that if the variable is volatile this should be suppressed. C4510 mention if have reference or const members provide default constructor with initializer list. If intent is to make non-default-constructable, provide private declaration only. Paul PS The coverage of gcc is thin, for other compilers, non-existent. Contributions welcome as I am entirely ignorant of these compilers. Working on it;) Thanks, Patrick _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: [2]http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boo st References 1. https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/Guidelines/MaintenanceGuidelines 2. http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
