Re: [boost] Re: iostreams library review

I downloaded the library from the yahoo link you mentioned in the review
request. When trying to use 'filtered_stream' I ran into some compilation
issues (RedHat 9, g++ 3.3) and before looking into it I wanted to know the
review status. Knowing that the library is in the review pipeline I will
give it another try.

Some time ago I developed simple iostream adapter 'library' that allows to
wrap IO device (sockets, pipes, etc) in std::[i,o,io]stream that is very
similar to your sink/source technique. One difference is that the adapter
is a template class parameterized by the source/sink types. Since your
library offers this functionality (plus much more) I am very pleased it
will become part of boost soon.

Thanks for your interest!

The previous version available at
http://www.xmission.com/~turkanis/iostreams/.

I've since made some major simplifications and improvements, and am
scrambing to update the docs. It now contains support for
memory-mapped files (from Craig Henderson) and for compression and
decompression in the zlib, gzip and bzip2 formats.
