regression results for the release?

http://www.boost.org/development/testing.html quoth: Will all Boost libraries work with your compiler? Unfortunately, the answer is "it depends". See the regression testing results to see exactly what works and what doesn't. But when I "see the regression testing results," all I see are results for the trunk and the release branch. If I'm an ordinary user, I'm using the 1.35.0 _release_. Do those libraries work with my compiler? -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com

Noted. One of the pushes for 1.36.0 will be to rewrite the release procedures, and then actually follow them. --Beman

We can still get the 1.35.0 results. We just need volunteers to run the regression results against 'tags/release/1_35_0'. And if we have those results, I could turn around and generate the expected_results.xml. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

Yes, please. I was never very comfortable with the fact that we dropped testing for so many platforms at version 1.35, but to not offer a testing report for the actual release seems totally unacceptable to me. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
