P.S. The library can also be used without C++11 lambda functions (or any C++11 specific feature) but programmers have to write a fare amount of extra code to program the precondition and postcondition functors (using non-local functions, Boost.LocalFunction, Boost.Funsion, Boost.Lambda, or some other approach) so that might not useful in practice.
You are certainly allowed to have your library require C++11. Since your library has already been accepted into Boost why not add it officially to Boost as a C++11 on up library ?
True, but the library compiles on C++03 as well. There are explicit comments in the docs that indicate the library is most useful when C++11 lambda functions are available (plus essentially all examples in the docs use lambdas): ``It is possible to use this library without C++11 lambda functions but a large amount of boiler-plate code is required to manually program separate functions to specify preconditions and postconditions (so using this library without C++11 lambda functions is not recommended, see No Lambda Functions).'' https://lcaminiti.github.io/boost-contract/doc/html/boost_contract/getting_s... So, if I'll push the library in Boost, I'd probably push it as a non-C++11 specific library that is however most useful on compiler that support C++11 lambdas. Thanks, --Lorenzo
