Re: [boost] Boost.TR1 silently removed with 1.65?
Hi,
I noticed that boost 1.65 does not contain the tr1 folder and found

But http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_65_0.html <http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_65_0.htmldoes> does not mention this.
Even if it was deprecated, shouldn't this be mentioned somewhere? Googling "site:https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/ 1.65 tr1" didn't yield anything either :/

Hello ! I am experiencing the same problem... Software packages using boost require the TR1 header files in order to build, but the TR1 header files are no longer available in version 1.65.1 ! What is going on ? Regards, Guido

What is going on ?
TR1 removal was discussed in this thread: https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2015/03/220751.php Apparently, it was unintentionelly left out from the release notes.

Sigh.... it's been deprecated and unmaintained for countless releases. It also emphatically does not work with most modern compiler releases. Sorry, but it's time to move on. John. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com
It is now explained... Thanks. On Sun, 22/10/2017 at 18.53 +0100, John Maddock via Boost wrote:

That said, TR1 support should have been deprecated and then subsequently removed and documented in the release notes as it is a breaking change. I don't think I was following closely during the time deprecation would have occurred, so I can't say whether it happened or not. Based on recent submissions I made to Boost.Predef and Boost.WinAPI, I know that deprecation prior to removal is taken very seriously around here. - Jim

I think that depends on the library maintainer. Regardless, it's never too late to make a change to the release notes, so I just added something.
