hi all,

since my first review request for boost.lockfree [1] was completely
ignored, here a second version for review. the main differences are bug
fixes provided by various people, trying to run boost.lockfree on
different compilers/platforms.

the original review request was:

i would like to submit a small library of lock-free data structures for
review.

boost.lockfree provides implementations of lock-free data structures.
lock-free data structures can be accessed by multiple threads without
the necessity of blocking synchronization primitives such as guards.
lock-free data structures can be used in real-time systems, where
blocking algorithms may lead to high worst-case execution times, to
avoid priority inversion, or to increase the scalability for
multi-processor machines.

boost.lockfree provides:
* boost::lockfree::fifo, a lock-free fifo queue
* boost::lockfree::stack, a lock-free stack

updated links:

the code is available from the boost vault:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=boost_lockfree-241109.zip&directory=Concurrent%20Programming&

and from my personal git repository:
git://tim.klingt.org/boost_lockfree.git
http://tim.klingt.org/git?p=boost_lockfree.git

the documentation is available at:
http://tim.klingt.org/boost_lockfree/

would be nice if someone could add this library to the review schedule
or even would be willing to manage a review ...

best, tim

Avoid the world, it's just a lot of dust and drag and means nothing in
the end.
