#11359: BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL_COLLECTIONS: can't control output operator
-------------------------------+---------------------
 Reporter:  weegreenblobbie@…  |      Owner:  rogeeff
     Type:  Feature Requests   |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined   |  Component:  test
  Version:  Boost 1.56.0       |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                     |
-------------------------------+---------------------
 The BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL_COLLECTIONS does not use print_helper_t<T> or
 print_log_value<T> to print the values to screen like BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL
 does.

 I work with data that is usually printed as hex.  I can control when data
 should be printed as hex when I use BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL:
 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17572583/boost-check-fails-to-compile-

 operator-for-custom-types

 However, the same technique does not work with
 BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL_COLLECTIONS.

 Please do one of the following:

     1) Fix the collections version to use the same print helpers

     2) Provide an easier way for the end user to control how data is
 displayed
