Fokko Driesprong commented on AVRO-4095:
----------------------------------------
I think it makes a lot of sense to use the standard library instead of relying
on an external lib. Thanks for working on this [~wgtmac]
> Remove boost dependency from non-test files
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-4095
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-4095
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: c++
> Reporter: Gang Wu
> Priority: Major
>
> I have been integrating the AVRO C++ library into our proprietary query
> engine via conan. I have to maintain my own copy of the upstream
> [https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/recipes/libavrocpp/all/conanfile.py]
> to work around the boost dependency. In addition, I'm also working on a
> brand new [Iceberg C++ library|https://github.com/apache/iceberg-cpp] and
> need to integrate with AVRO C++ too. I found that preparing boost dependency
> requires a lot of work. As the AVRO C++ library is already on C++ 17, is it
> possible to get rid of the boost dependency at least in the non-test header
> and source files? It might involves a lot of work. I can do that if this is
> something that worth doing.
