Re: [boost] [circular_buffer] why is there no reserve(size_type)?

because:
1) it's behaviour is slightly different from the standard - you can increase but also decrease the capaciry of the container; decreasing of the capacity is not supported by reserve()
2) the word capacity is used all over the documentation of the circular buffer. I think set_capacity expresses better what the method does.

Why is this different from the standard library name?
