- <h3>1.34.1 (24 July 2007)</h3>
-
- <p>This is a bug fix release addressing many problems with the 1.34.0 release.
- It is a recommended upgrade for all users of Boost 1.34.0. For a complete list of fixes see
- Boost Trac.</p>
-
- <h4>Supported Compilers</h4>
-
- <p>New in this release is improved support for
- the IBM XL C/C++ compiler.</p>
-
- <p>Boost is tested on a wide range of compilers and
- platforms. Since Boost libraries rely on modern C++
- features not available in all compilers, not all
- Boost libraries will work with every compiler.
- New in this release The
- following compilers and platforms have been
- extensively tested with Boost, although many other
- compilers and platforms will work as well. For more
- information, see the <a href=

- <h4>Supported Compilers</h4>
-
- <p>Boost is tested on a wide range of compilers and
- platforms. Since Boost libraries rely on modern C++
- features not available in all compilers, not all
- Boost libraries will work with every compiler. The
- following compilers and platforms have been
- extensively tested with Boost, although many other
- compilers and platforms will work as well. For more
- information, see the <a href=
- "http://www.boost.org/regression/release/user/">regression
- test results</a>.</p>
-
- <p><b>New for this release</b>: Support for building
- with the newest STLport-5.0 was added. The support
- includes building with MinGW Runtime 3.8 plus
- STLport-5.0 improved to support wide character
- operations. Apple GCC 4.0, HP Tru64 C++, and
- Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0 are supported platforms. We
- have added an experimental autoconf-like
- <code>configure</code> script for Unix-like systems:
- run <code>configure --help</code> for more
- information.</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li><a href="http://developer.apple.com/">Apple

- warnings from Boost headers and other
- standards-conforming C++ code. To suppress these
- warnings, define the macro

- <h4>Regression tests</h4>
-
- <p>This release has been extensively tested on a variety
- of different compilers and platforms. It is known to
- contain no regressions against the previous reference
- release on the compilers and configurations tested.
- Please refer to the corresponding <a href=
- "http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost-regression/1_32_0/index.html">
- regression reports</a> to see how well your compiler
- performs on the new Boost codebase.</p>

- <h3>1.31.0 (26 Jan 2004)</h3>
-
- <h4>New License</h4>
-
- <p>A unified <a href="license_info.html">Boost Software
- License</a> has been developed and will gradually replace
- the individual licenses for most Boost libraries. The new
- license offers better legal protection for both users and
- developers, and should speed user's legal reviews of
- Boost libraries. Dave Abrahams led the Boost effort to
- develop better licensing. The legal team was led by
- <a href=
- "http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/people/cabell/index.html">Diane
- Cabell</a>, Director, Clinical Programs, <a href=
- "http://cyber.law.harvard.edu">Berkman Center for
- Internet &amp; Society</a>, Harvard Law School. <a href=
- "http://www.nixonpeabody.com/attorneys_detail1.asp?ID=121">
- Devin Smith</a>, attorney, <a href=
- "http://www.nixonpeabody.com/default.asp">Nixon Peabody
- LLP</a>, wrote the Boost License. Eva Chan, Harvard Law
- School, contributed analysis of issues and drafts of
- various legal documents.</p>
-
- <p><strong>Note:</strong> Many of the Boost libraries are
- still using earlier licenses, though all conform to the
- <a href="lib_guide.htm#license">Boost License
- Requirements</a>. After this release we will begin an
- effort to move toward uniform use of the new license.</p>
