Hi,

Just upgraded to Boost 1.74 from Boost 1.71. I'm getting a warning:


I'll have to #define BOOST_ALLOW_DEPRECATED_HEADERS I guess, but I'm surprised Boost libraries are using deprecated Boost headers.

So for sure submit a github issue if there isn't one -- even better is a pull request with a fix.  Overall when I've been looking at release candidates I've routinely seen many of these sort of issues -- some have been fixed, but not all of them.

Hi,

I'm not a github user or a Boost developer, merely a user. I thought by raising it on the mailing list it'd be picked up by a maintainer and taken care of. Am I mistaken? Happy to learn what is expected from users of Boost who find issues, and whether the expectations vary depending on the Boost library in question.

Regards,

Pete
