- &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;first&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;search&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;

- as its priority queue, improving its complexity to O(V log V) and improving
- real-world performance for larger graphs.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- &lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/graph/doc/read_graphviz.html&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;read&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;graphviz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
- now has a new, Spirit-based parser that works for all graph types and
- supports arbitrary properties on the graph, from Ron Garcia. The old,
- Bison-based GraphViz reader has been deprecated and will be removed in
- a future Boost release. &lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/graph/doc/write-graphviz.html&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;write&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;graphviz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
- also supports dynamic properties.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- &lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/graph/doc/subgraph.html&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;subgraph&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;get_property&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;
- now refers to the subgraph property, not the root graph's property.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- See the &lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/graph/doc/history.html#by-version&quot;&gt;history&lt;/a&gt;
- for additional changes and bug fixes.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;/ul&gt;
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- &lt;span class=&quot;library&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/multi_index/doc/index.html&quot;&gt;Multi-index

- &lt;ul&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Option descriptions are now printed with word wrapping.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Command line parser can bypass unregistered options, instread of throwing.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Removed support for &amp;quot;implicit&amp;quot; (optional) values.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- New customization method 'command_line_parser::extra_style_parser'. Unlike
- 'additional_parser', allows the user to parse several tokens and return
- a vector of options, not just a single option.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Work with disabled exceptions.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;/ul&gt;
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;

- class, which provides dynamically-typed access to a set of property maps.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- &lt;span class=&quot;library&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/python/doc/index.html&quot;&gt;Boost.Python&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;
- &lt;ul&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Added support for docstrings on nonstatic properties.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- We now export the client-provided docstrings for &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;init&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;optional&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;
- and &lt;em&gt;XXX&lt;/em&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;_FUNCTION_OVERLOADS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;()&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt; for only the last overload.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Support for Embedded VC++ 4 and GCC-3.3 on MacOS added
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;

- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Support for exposing &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;vector&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;T&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;*&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt; with the indexing suite.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- updated visual studio project build file.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Added search feature to the index page.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;/ul&gt;
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- &lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;library&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/random/index.html&quot;&gt;Random Number
- Library&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;
- Improved initialization for &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;mersenne_twister&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;,
- algorithm by Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura, implemented for Boost
- by Jens Maurer.&lt;/p&gt;
- &lt;p&gt;Note: All test vectors for &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;mersenne_twister&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;s
- constructed or seeded without parameters or with a single &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;keyword&quot;&gt;unsigned&lt;/span&gt;
- &lt;span class=&quot;keyword&quot;&gt;int&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt; parameter become invalid.&lt;/p&gt;

- addition of convenience functions to &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;iterator&lt;/span&gt;
- &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;range&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt; like &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;front&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;(),&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;identifier&quot;&gt;back&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;()&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;keyword&quot;&gt;operator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;special&quot;&gt;[]()&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;.

- &lt;li&gt;
- Rewritten front end parser now supports (?imsx-imsx) constructs, plus
- lookbehind assertions and conditional expressions.
- &lt;/li&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;
- Thin wrapper classes improve integration with MFC/ATL code.
- &lt;/li&gt;

- 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 &lt;a href=&quot;
http://www.boost.org/regression/release/user/&quot;&gt;regression
- test results&lt;/a&gt;.

+After much work the new Boost web site is here. Like all software
+the site has bugs, so be gentle and reports problems in the bug
+tracker. Much thanks to the Boost community for the help in testing,
+criticizing, and writing. But I especially appreciate all the work
+Daniel James to translate content without which the web site would
+be a much emptier place.
