I've had a request that we set up a web page listing publications about Boost or Boost Libraries. The point being that it will be generally interesting, and possibly useful as a historical record. If Boost or any participants ever apply for a grant, such a bibliography is often required. Presumably such a page would go in the more directory, and be linked to from the home page. Attached is a quick draft of a Boost Bibliography page. Each entry is bookmarked so it can be referenced directly from other web pages.

[boost] CMake vs. bjam
Firstly, I dont work for VTK, I am just a user, and I dont want to start a war over what is the best cross-platform generator but it seems to me that this might be worth looking into. CMake was developed by Kitware as a cross-platform build tool. Kitware has similar but worse problem when compared with Boost in that it must support multiple platforms/compilers and also provide wrappers for TCL, Python and Java for the original C++ code. The nice thing about CMake is that, depending on the system, makefiles (Unix) or workspaces/projects (MSVC/Borland) will be built. The user can also specify options for the build, for example whether to build the Python or TCL wrappers or not. Info about it can be found at: http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Features.html Andrew ___ Andrew J. P.

RE: [boost] VC7/Threads Warnings
For your information I also get these warnings when building using bjam. As you mention below - ignoring the warnings seems OK in my code (but it is simple stuff). Is it possible to create a static library? I suspect that the defines prevent this. This was possible in version 1.29. Obviously this is not for the monitor but when not using the monitor it would be nice to have a static library to link in. Then I don't have to worry about making sure the dll is present.

Kempf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 26 March 2003 03:29 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [boost] VC7/Threads Warnings vc said: As I am having the same problem, I looked a little to the bjam settings, and it seems that, at least when building with VC7.x, the -Wx (warning level) option is not set, that is why probably with bjam these warnings are not seen ... Hmm... this surprised me. Mr. Maclean indicated the warnings were level 1 _and_ 2. Builds with bjam do report errors, so the warning level can't be 0. MSDN indicates Level 2 is the default warning level at the command line. So I assumed that it must be an RTL issue causing the warnings for him. However, experimenting with 'bjam -sTOOLS=vc7 -sBUILD=vc7*cxxflags-W2' does indeed produce the warnings in question. So it appears that MSDN is wrong, and that level 1 is selected if none is supplied? I plan to bump the level up in my own set of bjam tool sets. As for the warnings themselves... I'm still doing more research just to be 100% sure, but everything I've found thus far indicates you can ignore these warnings as long as you link against the same RTL in both the Boost.Threads DLL and the application. After I verify this, I'll remove the warnings through the use of pragmas. -- William E. Kempf ___ Unsubscribe other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
[boost] VC7/Threads Warnings
I am using Boost Ver 1.30 just released. I built the libraries with BJam. Now when building my code I get lots of warnings like the following. These warnings worry me a bit because they are level 1 and 2 warnings. Is it safe to ignore these or do I need to manually set some option? I never got these warnings with Boost 1.29. I get lots of warnings like: C:\boost\boost_1_30_0\boost\thread\thread.hpp(79): warning C4251: 'boost::thread_group::m_threads' : class 'std::list_Ty,_Ax' needs to have dll-interface to be used by clients of class 'boost::thread_group' with [ _Ty=boost::thread *, _Ax=std::allocatorboost::thread * ] and C:\boost\boost_1_30_0\boost\thread\exceptions.hpp(29): warning C4275: non dll-interface class 'std::logic_error' used as base for dll-interface class 'boost::lock_error' ___ Andrew J.
