Subject: [boost] [Thread] Doc bug?
From: Alexander Lamaison (awl03_at_[hidden])

The docs [1] for the `scoped_thread` and `strict_scoped_thread` says

> "While thread call std::terminate() on the destructor is the thread is
> joinable, strict_scoped_thread<> or scoped_thread<> join the thread if
> joinable.

Several other places on the page say something similar.

I was under in the impression that Boost.Thread had toyed with adopting
this behaviour to match `std::thread` but decided against it after
complaints on this list. Am I wrong?
