Dear HPX users,

The third release candidate of HPX 1.7.0 is now available. This release 
candidate is intended to be last one before the final release, and should see 
no more changes. Since the previous release candidate we have:


- Fixed handling of the pthreads flag on certain systems

- Fixed a possible deadlock when running on more than 64 localities

- Fixed compilation of the experimental sender/receiver functionality with MSVC

- Adapted more parallel algorithms to C++20

- Other minor changes


Kind regards,

Mikael Simberg

Dear HPX users,


The second release candidate of HPX 1.7.0 is now available. Compared to rc1 
there are few small but important changes:


- We have merged experimental support for GCC's experimental SIMD 
implementation through the unseq and par_unseq policies.

- Asio is a new dependency in 1.7.0. In rc1 Asio was automatically fetched 
using CMake's fetchcontent. For rc2 we have changed the default behaviour to 
first look for a system-installed Asio, and made using fetchcontent opt-in. The 
root of the Asio install can also be specified using the ASIO_ROOT CMake 
variable if it is not found automatically. To opt in to fetching it 
automatically set HPX_WITH_FETCH_ASIO=ON in the CMake configuration.

- Compilation with APEX and OTF2 has been fixed.

- hpx::util::unwrapping and related functionality has been deprecated in favour 
of hpx::unwrapping and friends. The behaviour is identical. Only the namespace 
has changed.


Kind regards,

Mikael Simberg
