#12554: boost/core/typeinfo.hpp creates unwanted strings in release binary
-----------------------------------+------------------------------
Reporter: Lev Sch <Zorechfan@â¦> | Type: Bugs
Status: new | Milestone: To Be Determined
Component: None | Version: Boost 1.62.0
Severity: Problem | Keywords:
-----------------------------------+------------------------------
If a program is compiled for a production build then strings are created
in program binary.
Location where the strings are created: boost/core/typeinfo.hpp ->
boost::core::detail::core_typeid_::name -> BOOST_CURRENT_FUNCTION.
Current behavior has two drawbacks for a production version of a program:
1. binary program file size become larger
2. code symbols are present in production version of a program
Five minutes proposed solution from me is replace function "name" by
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 80%"
Code highlighting:
{{{#!c++
static char const * name()
{
#ifdef NDEBUG
return "";
#else
return BOOST_CURRENT_FUNCTION;
#endif
}
}}}
}}}
Sorry for English...
Thank you for attention.
