in the implementation. Users who are experiencing crashes related to \ 
asynchronous completion handlers are encouraged to upgrade.
For a complete list of changes, please view the official Release Notes.
Context:
78: Linker error with context-impl=ucontext: multiple definition of \ 
boost::context::detail::current_rec

Fix various conversion errors in cpp_bin_float when the exponent type is a long \ 
long, or else we're converting to an integer that is wider than we are.
Fix compatibility issue with GCC-8 caused by the introduction of std::byte.

   2017-01-01 16:32:47 by Adam Ciarcinski | Files touched by this commit (12) | Package updated
Log message:
Changes 1.63.0:

Atomic:
* Added the static constant atomic<T>::is_always_lock_free for conformance \ 
with C++17. The constant indicates that the given specialization always provides \ 
lock-free implementation of atomic operations.
* Improved support of Oracle Studio on x86 targets.

Container:
* Fixed bugs

Context:
* 11687 Xcode (Apple clang) and thread_local
* 12114 context does not preserve fpu context on ios arm64 devices (fixed for \ 
other architecturs too)
* 12411 fpu registers not preserved with O2 optimizations in Visual Studio \ 
(fixed for other architecturs too)
* 12551 building boost on arm64 causes error: unknown directive
* reduced signatur for ontop-functions
* unit-test for private fcontext-API
* performance-test for ucontext and fcontext fixed

Fiber:
* unbounded_channel and bounded_channel marked as deprecated
* new classes buffered_channel and unbuffered_channel
* performance improved

Fusion:
* Fixed fusion::vector buggy constructors (Thanks to Lee Clagett).
* BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT* and BOOST_FUSION_DEFINE* now allow empty structures. (6592)
* BOOST_FUSION_DEFINE* allows move constructor and assignment. (10099)
* Adaptor for std::array (Thanks to Mateusz Łoskot). (8241)
* Fixed returning temporary variable warnings on MSVC.

Geometry:
* Intersection: take care that output is valid (work in progres, not yet \ 
finished - but more is valid)
* 12289 Avoid warning/compilation error for std::cout
* 12412 Invalid result of covered_by() with geographic Points and Boxes
* 12413 rtree::remove() not working properly with geographic Points

Hash:
* Fixed some warnings.

Interprocess:
* Fixed bugs

Intrusive:
* Fixed bugs

Lexical Cast:
* Fixed issue found by -fsanitize=undefined 21

Log:
* Removed the previously deprecated type_info_wrapper.
* Added a way to access the current file name from the text file sink backend. \ 
The file name can be obtained with the get_current_file_name method.
* Bug fixes

Metaparse:
* Improved the implementation of BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING

Move:
* Improved experimental adaptive sort algorithm performance
* Activate BOOST_MOVE_FORCEINLINE

Optional:
* Added two new in-place constructors. They work similarly to emplace() \ 
functions: they initialize the contained value by perfect-forwarding the \ 
obtained arguments. One constructor always initializes the contained value, the \ 
other based on a boolean condition.
* Syntax o = {} now correctly un-initializes an optional, just like in std::optional.
* Fixed optional<optional<T>&> initialization. (12203)
* Optional constructors are sfinae-friendly. This fixes interaction with \ 
std::tuple. (12563)

Phoenix:
* Most of modules now support C++11 variadic templates.
* Fixed type deduction failure with result type.
* Suppress unused warnings.
* Fixed too few arguments error on binary math functions.
* Added workarounds for older compiler.

Python:
* Added (basic) support for C++11 (std::shared_ptr, std::unique_ptr)
* Incorporated an extension API to wrap NumPy
* Removed obsolete bits and pieces

Test:
* Boost.test v3.4 see the Change log section for more details.
* New feature: per_element and lexicographic modifiers of BOOST_TEST can also be \ 
applied to string comparison
* Breaking change: colons that appear in test case names are replaced with \ 
underscores
* Bug fixes

TypeIndex:
* Added runtime_cast to the library as an emulation of dynamic_cast. Thanks to \ 
Chris Glover for the implementation. See runtime_cast reference for more info.
* Internals of the CTTI were made more platform independant, due to change of \ 
the std::size_t type to unsigned int.

Units:
* Fix inspection warnings
* updated physico-chemical constants to CODATA 2014 values
* define biot correctly as 10 Ampere

Unordered:
* Fix an exception safety issue in assignment.
* Use std::allocator_traits where available, and support modern style rebind (12459).
* Add some allocator aware constructors.
* Use the hint iterator in emplace_hint.
* Fixed some warnings.

Log message:
Changes 1.60.0:
New Libraries
VMD:
Variadic Macro Data library, from Edward Diener.

Updated Libraries
Atomic:
* Enforced proper alignment of atomic<> storage. This should fix possible \ 
issues on platforms that support atomic operations on data units larger than the \ 
native word size. This may also change binary layout of user's data structures \ 
that have atomic<> members.
* Fixed compilation for PowerPC with IBM XL C++ compiler. Corrected memory \ 
barriers in PowerPC assembler.
* Fixed compilation with MSVC-8 for ARM.
* Fixed compilation with gcc 4.4 for x86-64, when 128-bit atomic operations were \ 
used. (10994)
* Optimized some gcc assembler blocks for x86/x86-64 to reduce the number of \ 
used registers. This may require binutils 2.10 or later.

Chrono - 2.0.5:
Fixes:
* 10778 VC14 CTP4 Atomic don't compile with boost::chrono durations which are \ 
not TriviallyCopyable
* 10840 Missing std:: qualifier for puts call in test_7868.cpp
* 10851 Missing std:: qualifier for puts call in time_point_output.cpp
* 10893 Minor doc typo in Boost.Chrono
* 10992 Chrono IO state savers inconsistent with Boost.IO state savers
* 10995 duration_put::put_value truncates fractional part
* 11006 Impossible to instantiate time_fmt_io_saver due to several errors.
* 11012 chrono_io v2 fail to compile with boost::chrono::duration< \ 
boost::rational<int> >

Container:
* Implemented Polymorphic Memory Resources.
* Add more BOOST_ASSERT checks to test preconditions in some operations (like \ 
pop_back, pop_front, back, front, etc.)
* Added C++11 back/front operations to basic_string.
Fixed bugs:
* Trac 11627: "small_vector<T,n>::swap() appears to be broken".
* Trac 11628: "small_vector<int,n> iterates over elements in \ 
destructor".
* Trac 11697: "Wrong initialization order in tuple copy-constructor".
* Trac 11698: "Missing return statement in static_storage_allocator".
* GitHub 29: Doc fixes for flap_map complexity requirements.
* GitHub 31: DL_SIZE_IMPL also dereference addr.

Context:
* 11603 typo in PPC32/MACH-O asm
* support for CYGWIN

Core:
* In symbol demangling tools, added support for gabi++ ABI implementation used \ 
in Android NDK.
* Added a new enable_if_has_type tool for performing SFINAE checks for presence \ 
of a nested type.

Changes 1.56.0:
Modularization
Boost version control has migrated to a system using git submodules. This \ 
shouldn't make too much of a difference to users, although the directory \ 
structure is now a bit different.

Parts of some libraries have been moved into different modules, and several new \ 
modules have been extracted from existing code. All header paths should remain \ 
the same. The new modules are:

Assert:
Customizable assert macros. Maintained by Peter Dimov.
Core:
Core utilities used by other libraries, with minimal dependencies. Maintained by \ 
Peter Dimov, Glen Fernandes and Andrey Semashev.
Lexical_Cast:
General literal text conversions, such as an int represented a string, or \ 
vice-versa, from Kevlin Henney.
Throw_Exception:
A common infrastructure for throwing exceptions from Boost libraries, from Emil \ 
Dotchevski.
Winapi:
Windows API declarations without <windows.h>, for internal Boost use.
New Libraries
Align:
Memory alignment functions, allocators, and adaptors, from Glen Fernandes.
Type_Index:
Runtime/Compile time copyable type info, from Antony Polukhin.
