[Boost-users] boost with c++11

Dear All,

Perhaps my question has been covered already, in this case a pointer to 
the relevant docs / thread would be highly appreciated. However, I have 
not been able to find the answer on my question:

My code makes use of the C++11 standard and the standard libraries. I 
feel tempted to employ more current features, also beyond C++11, 
eventually.

When downloading the boost 1.60.0 release and compiling with 
cxxflags='-std=c++11 -march=native' toolset=gcc linkflags=-stdlib=libc++ 
supplied to b2 compilation of my software (with gcc 5.3.0) leads to a 
number of warning messages and deprecation messages related to unused 
variables or redifined symbols, e.g.:

- boost_1_60_0/include/boost/system/error_code.hpp:223:36: warning: 
‘boost::system::native_ecat’ defined but not used [-Wunused-variable]
      static const error_category &  native_ecat    = system_category();
- /boost_1_60_0/include/boost/iostreams/chain.hpp:256:14: warning: 
‘template<class> class std::auto_ptr’ is deprecated 
[-Wdeprecated-declarations]
          std::auto_ptr<streambuf_t>
In file included from /cluster/gcc/5.3.0/include/c++/5.3.0/memory:81:0,
                  from trunk/src/ngs_io.cpp:8:
/cluster/gcc/5.3.0/include/c++/5.3.0/bits/unique_ptr.h:49:28: note: 
declared here
    template<typename> class auto_ptr;
- /usr/include/boost/iostreams/detail/adapter/concept_adapter.hpp:35:7: 
note: 
‘boost::iostreams::detail::concept_adapter<boost::iostreams::basic_gzip_decompressor<> 
 >::concept_adapter(const 
boost::iostreams::detail::concept_adapter<boost::iostreams::basic_gzip_decompressor<> 
 >&)’ is implicitly deleted because the default definition would be 
ill-formed:
  class concept_adapter {
        ^

etc.

And most importantly this error:

/usr/include/boost/iostreams/detail/adapter/concept_adapter.hpp:35:7: 
error: use of deleted function 
‘boost::iostreams::basic_gzip_decompressor<>::basic_gzip_decompressor(const 
boost::iostreams::basic_gzip_decompressor<>&)’

My g++ compiler flags (other than output and source file) are:
  -c -fopenmp -O3 -march=native -Wall -ansi -pedantic -Wuninitialized 
-std=c++11

The code compiles fine with a git pull from May last year, yet I do not 
recall what I have done differently.

So, can anybody tell me how to set up boost, such that compilation and 
linking against C++11 std-libraries works? I understand that

Best regards,
Christian Meesters
