Last week someone else asked similar question and it seems to be unclear how to generate patch files too. So, it is worth to mention the following basic steps once: 1) Checkout Boost trunk 2) Apply your changes to Boost files 3) Go to root directory of your local copy of Boost trunk 4) Pull recent changes: svn update 5) Resolve any conflicts if occurred 6) Still at Boost root directory level, generate patch: svn diff > my-changes.patch 7) Create new ticket: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/newticket 8) Fill in ticket details, attach my-changes.patch 9) Perhaps it is a good idea to notify boost@lists.boost.org too Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

Thanks for the info: Just a warning fix for the moment: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6285 I think it would be useful to include that information in the development page. Pedro. 2011/12/17 Mateusz Łoskot <mateusz@loskot.net>:

By the way, is it still a valid idea to maintain the table of warning fixes with linked relevant tickets? https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ Or, it has been deprecated?
I think it would be useful to include that information in the development page.
I think this kind of supporting guides belong to Wiki: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
