[release] Need help to test new release archives.
As part of my attempt to make the Boost release management less painful, for everyone, I've implemented building of the release archives in Travis-CI. As of yesterday archives of the "boost" super-project master branch are getting uploaded to the bintray.com service at < https://bintray.com/boostorg/snapshots/master/view>. There are still some kinks in how this works but it's automated enough at this point that it might serve the upcoming release needs. I would appreciate it if people download the archives available at the above link and test them out. In particular I'm looking to see if there's anything missing or generally incorrect. For reference the archives are named with the commit SHA that they correspond to. Thank you. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
For the handful of people who've downloaded the new archives.. Thank you. Feedback is appreciated, if you have it. And the sooner I get it the sooner I can resolve any problems. Everyone else.. Please give the new archives a look. On Wed, Mar 2, 2016 at 9:47 AM, Rene Rivera <grafikrobot@gmail.com> wrote:

I haven't tried to build anything yet but it seems, Boost.DLL and Boost.Hana are missing in the archives. I thought they are supposed to be released in 1.61. A suggestion: maybe we should replace .tar.bz2 with .tar.xz. xz is ubiquitous nowdays and it provides better compression ratio.

Note sure about doing that.. As even the tar.gz version gets plenty of downloads still <https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.60.0/>. And it would only be close to the size of the 7z. So not much of a gain. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

It's still a gain. I mean, what's the downside? PS: Not sure why people would want .tar.gz. I suspect, a large portion of that is generated by scripts/robots noone updated.

I am testing this out with Oracle Solaris Studio 12.5 on sparc-S2. So far do not see any issues in running the tests. The libraries compute, hana, dll and metaparse are not in. Not sure of

Cool :-)

They should definitely be there. And I think I see the problem. Will fix ASAP. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

OK, the root cause of this is fixed. When the next set of archives get generated (i.e. when there's a change to the super-project master branch) the new libraries should be in there. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

Thank you for doing this Rene! This is great. The SHAs matched for what I checked. The package looks good at a glance. There are some build errors (stage build on osx with clang): - context has link errors - python can find <boost/cast.hpp> michael -- Michael Caisse Ciere Consulting ciere.com

And I also just fixed that. Again, when next archives build from master branch it will be resolved. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

- The archive contains some dot-files eg. .gitignore - The HTML documentation for odeint seems to be missing Thomas

OK.. That's now fixed. The exclusion checks (yes multiple identical checks) for that where a mess. It's a bit cleaner now. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
