Boost Libraries and Dropping C++ Language Support
by Glen Fernandes 22 Feb '23

22 Feb '23

*Boost library authors and maintainers are free to drop support for old C++ standards in their libraries, at any time. * This includes libraries that other Boost libraries depend on. It even includes core libraries like Boost.Core or Boost.Static_Assert. We ask that maintainers do the right thing by all our users (which may include other Boost libraries) by announcing a future breakage *at least two Boost releases in advance*. When that eventual release time arrives, if Boost libraries are broken in older standards modes due to another Boost library dropping support, it will not block the Boost release. This means that we do not need to announce "Boost is dropping C++03" because Boost doesn't "support C++03" now as it is. It means that you, maintainer of Boost.X, should realize that you are free to announce that "Boost.X is dropping C++XY in version 1.Z" as you see fit. Boost in its infancy thrived because its libraries were on the cutting edge. Boost libraries today should similarly not be confined simply because other Boost libraries have chosen to depend on them. Furthermore, as Boost release managers we support authors exercising this freedom, and do not intend to impose any restrictions on what language support they must maintain. We will add a page to the Boost website stating the above formally. -- The release team (Glen Fernandes, Marshall Clow)

Fwd: [boost] aedis review starts today
by Mateusz Loskot 15 Jan '23

15 Jan '23

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Klemens Morgenstern via Boost <boost(a)lists.boost.org> Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2023 at 16:17 Subject: [boost] aedis review starts today To: <boost(a)lists.boost.org> Cc: Klemens Morgenstern <klemensdavidmorgenstern(a)gmail.com> The formal review of the aedis starts today (15th) and ends next week on Tuesday (24th). The library was developed & submitted by Marcelo. Aedis ================= Aedis is a Redis client library built on top of Boost.Asio that implements the latest version of the Redis communication protocol RESP3. Some of its distinctive features are * A connection class that provides high-level functions to execute Redis commands and receive server pushes concurrently. * Automatic pipelining of commands. * Support for STL containers and serialization of user-defined data types. * Low-latency: Responses can be read in their final data-structure without creating copies. Aedis links Github: https://github.com/mzimbres/aedis Homepage: https://mzimbres.github.io/aedis/ Git tag: v1.4.1 Tarball: https://github.com/mzimbres/aedis/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.1.tar.gz Redis Links: Redis: https://redis.io/ RESP3: https://github.com/redis/redis-specifications/blob/master/protocol/RESP3.md Pipelines: https://redis.io/docs/manual/pipelining/ Redis commands: https://redis.io/commands/ Local Redis =========== Redis can be also easily installed on your local machine, for example, on Debian run "apt install redis". You might also want to use docker https://www.docker.com/blog/how-to-use-the-redis-docker-official-image/ Redis server for the Boost review ================================= We also have a public aedis server available for testing, please contact me or Marcelo for the details. Review ======== Please explicitly state that you either *accept* or *reject* the inclusion of this library into boost. Also please indicate the time & effort spent on the evaluation and give the reasons for your decision. The review is open to anyone who is prepared to put in the work of evaluating and reviewing the library. Prior experience in contributing to Boost reviews is not a requirement. Some questions to consider: - Does this library bring real benefit to C++ developers for real world use-case? - Do you have an application for this library? - Does the API match with current best practices? - Is the documentation helpful and clear? - Did you try to use it? What problems or surprises did you encounter? - What is your evaluation of the implementation? Additionally, stating your knowledge of redis and asio would be helpful for me. More information about the Boost Formal Review Process can be found at: http://www.boost.org/community/reviews.html Reviews can also be submitted privately to me, and I will not disclose who sent them. I might however cite passages from those reviews in my final decision. Thanks to Marcelo for providing us with a new library & thanks for all the reviews in advance. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
