The inspection report has duly noted that the current thread library doesn't come under the BSL. This is the main reason for the thread rewrite effort currently underway. How do we mark the existing files, so they won't cause so much noise in the report? Do we just add
// boostinspect::nolicense
to the top of each file?
Yes, with one colon though. It can be anywhere in the file. Since we haven't use that tag yet, we are still in time to change it to something like boostinspect:nobsl or similar, if we prefer, as "nolicense" could be a bit confusing to the casual reader (does it have a license, as stated at the top, or not? :-))

boostinspect:notbooststandardlicense ?
Looks good to me, though it might look better with underscores, as per the usual boost naming: boostinspect:not_boost_standard_license Anthony -- Anthony Williams Software Developer Just Software Solutions Ltd http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk

I don't care that much (my only preference is for the tag to appear at the bottom of the file), but the 's' in "BSL" stands for "software", not "standard". Just let me know what your choice is, so that I can make the tool aware of it :) -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ] [ resume: available on request ]

boostinspect:not_boost_software_license works for me. I figured that Martin meant "not standard", as in "not the normal boost license". Why your preference for the bottom of the file? Anthony -- Anthony Williams Software Developer Just Software Solutions Ltd http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk

Just to make it (perhaps) less noticeable and avoid alarming the reader. Now that I think about that I must say "not_bsl" is kind of a welcome obfuscation :) -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ] [ resume: available on request ]
