[intrusive] Expected failure markup.

Hello, I would like to ask if the expected failure markup for intrusive could be removed for Tru64/CXX. There are still many failures left, but as this platform has lost it's 'officially supported' boost status the expected failure markup isn't relevant anyway. It would help me a lot in fixing the remaining issues, as it gives a nice overview of what already works and what doesn't. Regards, Markus

Assuming it compiles in your environment you can obtain a useful result table locally with compiler_status, which doesn't take expected failures into account. I do it by moving the results/boost/bin.v2 directory to my Boost root, set the BOOST_ROOT environment variable, change directory to status and then run compiler_status --v2 $BOOST_ROOT full.html links.html and compiler_status --v2 --compiler <your-toolset-here> $BOOST_ROOT compiler.html The first one gives me a full result table hyper-linked with compiler output and the second gives me a non hyper-linked, single compiler table, which is convenient for diffing with older versions. Given your turnaround time it would probably take you quite some time to generate these tables, though. Cheers, Nicola Musatti

Thanks for the tip, this is certainly useful.

That's why I prefer to see the errors in the regular regression runs. ;-) Thank you, Markus

It's still in the "release" platforms of the regression test. http://beta.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/intrusive_release.ht... But I've removed the markup to see how many issues are still in the platform. We can mark it again later.
