Hello,
I'd like to request access to the vault. I'm going to upload a proof-of-concept of some of the things I mentioned earlier in my thread about Boost.Debug. This early version gives simple stack
Did you give some thought about merging your efforts with what I have in Boost.Test?
A little bit. I looked at test/debug.hpp and it looks like currently you only support the features related to actually attaching debugger and setting breakpoints, etc. So far the only features I support are the opposite, those related to symbol information and call stack. So we haven't duplicated any work so far yet. I'm not sure if it makes more sense to continue with 2 separate libraries (Boost.Debug and Boost.Test), or to merge all of my stuff into Boost.Test, or to merge all of the stuff in debug.hpp into Boost.Debug. Nevertheless, I think my code is still at an early enough stage that it's not too important yet. A few people have privately expressed interest in helping to redesign some of the code I've already done, since I only consider myself a beginning to intermediate boost user :) I think after that effort has been underway a little while longer it will make more sense and be more clear how to combine the functionality. But the important thing is that so far there hasn't been any duplicated effort, and I don't think there is any danger of that in the near future since mostly right now it just needs to be thought about the design of the call stack related classes / interfaces some more.
