boost: updated to 1.83.0

1.83.0

New Libraries
Compat:
A repository of C++11 implementations of standard components added in later C++ \ 
standards, from Peter Dimov and contributors.
Updated Libraries
Any:
New boost::anys::unique_any C++11 class - an alternative to boost::any (or to \ 
std::any) that does not require copy or move construction from the held type.
Ported documentation to Quickbook, Doxygen comments now used in code.
Atomic:
Fixed compilation of atomic_ref for const-qualified types. Note that even \ 
const-qualified atomic objects must still reside in read-write memory.
Chrono:
Remove use of deprecated Boost.Ratio features.
Compat:
Added latch.hpp, an implementation of std::latch (contributed by Christian Mazakas.)
Added shared_lock.hpp, a (partial) implementation of std::shared_lock \ 
(contributed by Christian Mazakas.)
Core:
Added support for incomplete types to boost::core::type_name.
Bit manipulation functions in boost/core/bit.hpp are now constexpr on recent \ 
MSVC versions (VS2019 update 5 and later.)
Added boost::core::byteswap (an implementation of std::byteswap from C++23) to \ 
boost/core/bit.hpp.
Moved the yield primitives sp_thread_pause, sp_thread_yield, sp_thread_sleep \ 
from SmartPtr implementation details to boost/core/yield_primitives.hpp.
DLL:
Fixed tests failures on glibc 2.36+, thanks to [Đoàn Trần Công \ 
Danh](https://github.com/sgn) for the bugreport.
Filesystem:
Added directory_entry::refresh method that updates internal cached file statuses \ 
for the directory entry identified by path.
v4: directory_entry constructors and modifiers that initialize or modify the \ 
path now automatically call refresh. This may result in errors that were not \ 
indicated before and in v3, if querying the filesystem for file statuses fails \ 
(e.g. if the file does not exist). This new behavior is similar to \ 
std::filesystem.
v4: directory_entry constructors and methods taking file_status parameters are \ 
removed. Users are recommended to remove these arguments and rely on \ 
directory_entry calling refresh internally.
Added directory_entry member methods for checking the file type of the file, \ 
similar to std::filesystem.
Added more methods for testing file status: is_block_file, is_character_file, \ 
is_fifo, is_socket and is_reparse_file.
recursive_directory_iterator is now more likely to reuse information about the \ 
file type that is obtained during filesystem iteration. This may improve \ 
performance.
File streams defined in boost/filesystem/fstream.hpp are now movable, if the \ 
standard library file streams are.
Added a new header boost/filesystem/cstdio.hpp with a portable fopen overload \ 
that takes path as the first argument. This function is equivalent to \ 
std::fopen, except that on Windows it uses the native wide character encoding \ 
for paths.
Generic path comparison operators are now more restricted to avoid potential \ 
ambiguities when user's code contains a using namespace boost::filesystem; \ 
directive.
Fixed potential overload resolution ambiguity in users' code, where path \ 
constructors from iterators could interfere with function overloads taking a \ 
std::initializer_list argument.
On Windows, added more workarounds for errors returned by various filesystems \ 
when creating a directory iterator.
On Windows, relaxed access rights needed for querying file times.
Flyweight:
Added smart-pointer syntax to boost::flyweight (operator* and operator-> \ 
dereferencing to the underlying value).
Fixed a situation where the mutex used by simple_locking was not recursive.
Geometry:
Improvements
Drop dependencies and replace boost with std in several places
Add missing headers so that all headers compile independently complying with \ 
Boost policy
Check const Ring concept in calculate_point_order
Solved issues
Fix for union
Fix for different geometry types
Fix for convex hull
Fix within algorithm for geometries having a pole as a vertex
Various fixes of errors and warnings
Iterator:
Added is_iterator type trait that allows to test whether the type qualifies as \ 
an iterator type.
filter_iterator now supports move-construction of the adopted iterator and the \ 
function object.
JSON:
The library now only throws system_error, except for when allocation failed, in \ 
which case std::bad_alloc is thrown.
Serialization behavior can now be changed by serialize_options.
Contextual conversions.
Parser option for more precise number parsing.
Support parse_options in stream operator<<.
Parser option to allow Infinity and NaN JSON literals.
Parser mode that only validates numbers rather than parsing them.
Numbers with exponent larger than INT_MAX are accepted by the parser and treated \ 
as infinity.
Fix object member functions that should provide strong guarantee.
Fix ambiguity of end call when boost/range.hpp is included.
Fix ASan failures.
Fix error message for error::size_mismatch.
Fix conversion into tuple with const elements.
Locale:
Bitwise/binary operators (left/right shift, binary and/or/xor/not) are no longer \ 
supported in message catalog files matching GNU gettext behavior
Std backend on Windows uses the classic locale instead of the system locale when \ 
the requested locale does not exist (now same as on other OSs)
localization_backend_manager::get is deprecated, use the generator instead
New converter classes as alternative to to_utf/from_utf/between
Fix UB on invalid index in format strings
Fix conversion of UTF to e.g. iso-2022-jp on Windows without ICU
Use long long as the count parameter for pluralized translations
Fix movability and exception specification for some classes
Log:
Fixed a possible infinite loop in text_file_backend, when the size of a \ 
formatted log record exceeds the rotation_size limit.
Math:
Added Numerical evaluation of Fourier transform of Daubechies scaling functions 921.
Added logcdf function to statistical distributions 946.
Added support for C++23's <stdfloat> types 978.
Fixed various -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings
Fixed round and trunc functions for non-representable numbers 968.
Fixed calculation of mode for F-distribution 976.
Fixed overflow in beta distribution 977.
Fixed overflow in hypergeometric distribution 987.
Fixed calculation of median absolute deviation with non-zero center 997.
Mp11:
Added an offset/from parameter to mp_from_sequence, mp_iota, mp_iota_c.
Added mp_value, mp_list_v, mp_rename_v, mp_is_value_list.
Added value list support to the primitives in <boost/mp11/list.hpp>.
Added value list support to mp_repeat, mp_fill, mp_at, mp_back, mp_take, \ 
mp_pop_back, mp_drop, mp_insert, mp_erase.
Multi-index Containers:
Updated range insert in non-unique ordered indices to preserve insertion order \ 
of equivalent elements.
Serialization now uses std::size_t instead of unsigned long to save and load the \ 
size of a multi_index_container (unsigned long is smaller than std::size_t in \ 
LLP64 data models). multi_index_container serialization class version has been \ 
bumped from 3 to 4 to reflect this change.
Multiprecision:
Fixed bug in rational adapter division 542.
Fixed handling of global precsion changes in multi-threaded environments 552.
Fixed cpp_int::eval_convert_to noexcept specification 555.
MySQL:
Major update.
Stored procedures are now fully supported, including SELECT statements producing \ 
data and procedures with OUT parameters.
Added support for multi-queries, which allows running multiple \ 
semicolon-separated statements with a single call.
A statically-typed interface has been added, which allows parsing query results \ 
into user-provided types, using Boost.Describe structs and tuples.
Text queries and prepared statements can now be executed using the new \ 
connection::execute and connection::start_execution functions (and their async \ 
counterparts). These superseed connection::query, connection::execute_statement, \ 
connection::start_query and connection::start_statement_execution. The new \ 
functions allow access to new features, like the static interface.
A separate compilation mode has been added to help reduce build times. Sources \ 
are included in boost/mysql/src.hpp, which must be included in exactly one \ 
translation unit.
Prepared statements can now be executed using an iterator pair to specify \ 
parameters, using statement::bind and connection::execute. This enables use \ 
cases where the number and type of parameters is not known at compile-time.
Prepared statement execution now accepts parameters of type bool, std::optional \ 
and boost::optional.
Added error codes and verified compatibility with MySQL v8.0.33 and MariaDB v11.0.
Fixed potential problems with Windows' min() and max() macros.
All assertions now use Boost.Assert.
All exceptions are now thrown via Boost.ThrowException.
Immediate completions are now correctly dispatched through the I/O object executor.
Ratio:
Change default BOOST_RATIO_VERSION to 2.
Support for BOOST_RATIO_EXTENSIONS is now deprecated and will eventually be \ 
removed when Boost.Ratio is implemented in terms of the standard <ratio> \ 
header.
Test:
Added addtional older platforms to CI system (e.g. GCC 4.6)
Fixed handling of uintptr_t to make sure it is portable on 32-bit systems 353.
Fixed warnings from -Wdeprecated-copy-dtor and \ 
-Wdeprecated-copy-with-user-provided-dtor 375.
Fixed handling of check_is_close for C++23 <stdfloat> types 382.
Timer:
Remove dependency on Boost.Chrono, Boost.System, and others.
Disable deprecated headers unless BOOST_TIMER_ENABLE_DEPRECATED is defined.
Unordered:
Major update.
Added boost::concurrent_flat_map, a fast, thread-safe hashmap based on open \ 
addressing.
Sped up iteration of open-addressing containers.
In open-addressing containers, erase(iterator), which previously returned \ 
nothing, now returns a proxy object convertible to an iterator to the next \ 
element. This enables the typical it = c.erase(it) idiom without incurring any \ 
performance penalty when the returned proxy is not used.
URL:
parse_query does not recreate string_view.
url_view/string_view constructor requires non-url_view_base.
IP-literal can be IPv6addrz.
UUID:
Improved generated x86 code for AVX targets. Removed the use of lddqu \ 
instruction on SSE3 targets, which penalize performance on Intel NetBurst CPUs \ 
but is more optimal on Skylake and later CPUs.
Variant2:
Added uses_double_storage().
Updated Tools
Build:
Includes release of B2 version 4.10.1.

Log message:
devel/boost-jam: Use just TOOL_DEPENDS, not buildlink3.

This is a build-time tool used to build things, not a library or
header file for the target system used as an input to a build-time
tool.

Log message:
boost-jam: Handle TOOLBASE/LOCALBASE split.

XXX I think we can just delete boost-jam/buildlink3.mk at this point,
and move the BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS pattern into TOOL_DEPENDS in
bjam.mk instead.

Fixed channels to add partial support for C++11 and C++14.
Added missing handler tracking source location support to co_composed and \ 
'awaitable<>' coroutines, when awaiting packaged asynchronous operations.
Fixed some 'potential null dereference' and shadow variable warnings.
Fixed a asio::buffer overload selection when used with const_buffers_1 and \ 
mutable_buffers_1.
Disabled the runtime check for current Windows version unless targeting older \ 
Windows.
Fixed compatibility between buffered stream wrappers and move-constructible \ 
streams, such as ssl::stream<>.
Fixed basic_socket_acceptor::async_accept compatibility with lambdas that have a \ 
deduced return type.
Fixed as_tuple compatibility with legacy completion tokens.
Fixed redirect_error compatibility with new completion tokens.
Fixed a potential, Windows-specific program termination due to exceptions that \

Various additions and modifications to the documentation.
Consult the Revision History for further details.
Atomic:
When compiled for x86 targets supporting AVX, vector instructions are now used \ 
for 128-bit atomic loads and stores.
For 32-bit x86 targets, 64-bit atomic loads and stores with memory_order_seq_cst \ 
semantics will now issue a memory ordering instruction.
Removed atomic<T>::storage() accessors and atomic<T>::storage_type \ 
types that were deprecated in Boost.Atomic 1.73. Users are recommended to use \ 
atomic<T>::value() and atomic<T>::value_type instead.
Beast:

Changed string hashing to use mulxp1_hash. This improves both quality and speed.
Core:
Added boost/core/snprintf.hpp header with portable definitions of snprintf, \ 
vsnprintf and their wchar_t counterparts.
Deprecated boost/core/is_same.hpp and boost::core::is_same. The header will be \ 
removed in a future release. Users are advised to use Boost.TypeTraits or C++ \ 
standard library type traits instead.
Marked boost::ref member functions and associated methods with noexcept.
Marked boost::swap function with noexcept, depending on whether the type \ 
supports a non-throwing swap operation.
Added boost::core::launder, a portable implementation of std::launder.
Added BOOST_CORE_ALIGNOF, a portable implementation of alignof.
Added boost::core::max_align_t, a portable equivalent of std::max_align_t, and \ 
boost::core::max_align, the alignment of max_align_t.
Added boost::core::memory_resource, a portable equivalent of \ 
std::pmr::memory_resource from C++17.
Added boost/core/serialization.hpp, a collection of primitives allowing \ 
libraries to implement Boost.Serialization support for their types without \ 
including a Serialization header and thereby making their libraries depend on \ 
Serialization.
Added boost::data, an implementation of std::data.
Added boost::size, an implementation of std::size.
Updated boost::span to use boost::data which adds support for range construction \ 
from an std::initializer_list.
Added boost::identity, an implementation of std::identity. This facility has \ 
been moved from Boost.Functional.
DLL:
Avoid implicit cast from size_t to uint32_t
Filesystem:
Fixed compilation errors that could have been caused by path conversion \ 
constructors being too permissive on the accepted arguments.
v4: path::remove_filename now presesrves the trailing directory separator.
Added path::remove_filename_and_trailing_separators, which removes the filename \ 
and directory separators preceding it from the path. This behavior is similar to \ 
path::remove_filename in Filesystem v3, but is also usable in v4.
Added path::replace_filename, which replaces filename in a path.
Updated implementation of the library version selection to avoid ODR violations.
On Windows, added a workaround for querying file attributes for files in SMBv1 \ 
shares. Previously, directories in SMBv1 shares could have been reported as \ 
regular files. This does not affect SMBv2 or later.
Geometry:
Major improvements
Support geographic buffer for (multi)linestrings and (multi)polygons
Improvements
Comparable distance: Add support for dynamic geometries
Support covered_by() for box, geometry combinations
Solved issues
WKT: allow tabs and new lines
Fixes for union
Various fixes in examples
Breaking changes
The WKT output presentation of an empty polygon is now POLYGON() to make it \ 
consistent with other geometries
Histogram:
Replace detail::span and detail::make_span with implementations in boost::core
Documentation improvements
Protect usage of std::min and std::max in some cases, contributed by Han Jiang \ 
(min,max macros are illegially set by popular Windows headers so we need to work \ 
around)
Added test to catch usage of unprotected min,max tokens in the library in the future
Fixes to support latest clang-14 and deduction guides in gcc-11+
JSON:
set_at_pointer.
boost::hash support.
Caller-provided serializer storage.
value_to supports missing elements for std::optional.
Fix parser suspend inside an escape character.
Make sentinel() return a unique pointer.
Locale:
get_system_locale and dependents will now correctly favor LC_ALL over LC_CTYPE \ 
as defined by POSIX
utf8_codecvt::out returns partial for trailing (UTF) surrogates
Add boost::locale::util::locale_data to parse a locale
boost::locale::info::encoding() result is now in uppercase as documented, e.g. \ 
"UTF-8" instead of "utf-8"
Support M49 country codes such as en_001 or en_150
Treat en_US_POSIX as an alias for the C locale
Improve error for missing segmentation support (i.e. without ICU)
Fix compiler warnings
Math:
Deprecated C++11 support: We now require C++14 as a minimum standard. Our \ 
minimum tested compiler versions are now Clang-5, GCC-5 or MSVC-14.1.
Added Estrin's method for polynomial evaluation.
Fix various issues in non-central distributions to allow for larger \ 
non-centralities see 939.

Improve ibeta handling of infinities and NaN's, see 878.
Improve error handling in powm1, see 781.
Improve root-finder bracketing to bracket faster when the exponent is \ 
super-large or small.
Fix root finding edge cases, see 873.
Lots of miscellaneous warning fixes.
Add assertions when using features which require C++17 for better error messages \ 
when invoking the compiler in a lower std version.
Multi-index Containers:
Serialization now uses unsigned long instead of collection_size_type, and \ 
multi_index_container serialization class version has been bumped from 2 to 3 to \ 
reflect this change. Reading old archives may fail for custom archive types \ 
giving special treatment to collection_size_type values: if this is the case, \ 
globally define the macro \ 
BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_ENABLE_SERIALIZATION_COMPATIBILITY_V2 to ensure backwards \ 
compatibility in reading operations.
Maintenance work.
Multiprecision:
Deprecated C++11 support: We now require C++14 as a minimum standard. Our \ 
minimum tested compiler versions are now Clang-5, GCC-5 or MSVC-14.1.
Added a new forward declaration header.

Stacktrace:
Fixed typos in docs and comments, thanks to Chocobo1 for the PR
Fixed multithreading flag detection for backtrace_create_state if \ 
BOOST_STACKTRACE_BACKTRACE_FORCE_STATIC is defined.
StaticString:
Boost.Core string_view and std::string_view interoperability
Test:

Replaced the previous post-mixing process for open-addressing containers with a \ 
new algorithm based on extended multiplication by a constant.

constructed using the allocator of the container which breaks uses-allocator \ 
construction.
URL:
Add url::format with automatic percent-encoding
URL router example
set_params convenience function
Support implicit conversions to string_view
Parsing constructors are implicit
string_token::arg has virtual destructor and slice protection

Detect hier_part_rule with empty-port-like segments
Segments comparison as if normalized works above root
hier-part path-rootless considers invalid segments
port as number is set to 0 when it overflows
ipv4 to string overflow detection algorithm
Variant:
Now uses core/addressof instead of the deprecated utility/addressof.

      + Bit manipulation utilities in boost/core/bit.hpp now explicitly require
        unsigned integers on input. (#129)
      + bit_width now returns int instead of a value of the input argument
        type. This follows resolution of LWG3656.
  * Describe:
      + To allow the inclusion of enumerators.hpp, bases.hpp, and members.hpp
        when the option -pedantic is used, the invocation of
        BOOST_DESCRIBE_ENUM has been moved from modifiers.hpp into a separate
        header, modifier_description.hpp. As a consequence, modifiers.hpp no
        longer includes enum.hpp. Code that has been relying on this implicit
        inclusion may fail, and will need to be fixed to include enum.hpp.
  * DLL:
      + Fixed path_from_handle implementation for Windows platforms, thanks to
        @SaltfishAmi for the bug report 57.
  * Filesystem:
      + Deprecated: path construction, assignment and appending from containers
        of characters, such as std::vector<char> or \ 
std::list<wchar_t>, is
        deprecated in v3 and removed in v4. Please use string types or
        iterators instead.
      + Deprecated: boost/filesystem/path_traits.hpp header is deprecated and
        will be removed in a future release. The header contained
        implementation details of path and should not be used in user's code.
      + Previously deprecated APIs will now generate compilation warnings on
        use. To suppress these warnings, BOOST_FILESYSTEM_ALLOW_DEPRECATED
        macro can be defined when compiling user's code.
      + Fixed compilation due to a missing include on POSIX systems that do not
        support *at APIs. (#250)
      + On Windows prior to 10, added a workaround for network share filesystem
        that produces ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER when constructing directory
        iterators. (PR#246, #245)
      + On Windows, fixed weakly_canonical failing with an
        ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION error code if the path started with the \ 
"\\?\"
        prefix. (#247)
      + Added support for std::string_view, boost::string_view and boost::
        container::string (as well as respective wchar_t counterparts) in path
        constructors, assignment and appending operations. (#208)
      + path constructors, assignment and appending operations taking a pair of
        iterators will no longer accept iterators with value types that are not
        one of the supported path character types.
      + On Windows, improved compatibility of directory_iterator with various
        mounted filesystems and Wine releases prior to 7.21. (#255, #266)
      + On Windows, deduplicated files are now reported as regular files rather
        than reparse files. (#262)
  * Fusion:
      + Added fusion::identity_view (PR#240)
      + Added support for associative sequences on fusion::transform_view (PR#
        239)
      + Fixed compilation for the case when fusion::reverse_view used with an
        associative sequence (PR#237)
      + Fixed Clang 13 -Wdeprecated-copy warnings (PR#261)
      + A small dependency reorganization. Now boost::ref and boost::
        noncopyable are used from Boost.Core (PR#249)
      + Added CI testing on Linux and MacOS for clang and gcc, fixed CI testing
        on Windows (PR#245, PR#236)
      + Improved docs and fixed typos (#234, PR#235, PR#238)
  * Geometry:
      + Solved issues
          o #1048 Index: Fix dangling references when Indexable is returned by
            value by IndexableGetter
          o #1076 Union: in rare cases it might miss one polygon
          o #1081 Union: due to precision it might miss interior rings
      + Bugfixes
          o #1063 Intersection: fix a bug in intersection of simple spherical
            polygons
          o #1064 Formulas: fix a consistency issue in geodesic direct formulas
          o #1088 Point: Fix regression for custom point types
          o Various fixes for missing include files, warnings, C++20
            compilation errors and documentation
  * Histogram:
      + Major update.
      + Added new accumulators::fraction to compute fractions, their variance,
        and confidence intervals
      + Added interval computers for fractions: utility::clopper_pearson,
        utility::wilson_interval, utility::jeffreys_interval, utility::
        wald_interval which can compute intervals with arbitrary confidence
        level
      + Added utility::confidence_level and utility::deviation types to pass
        confidence levels as probabilities or in multiples of standard
        deviation for all interval computers, respectively
      + Fixed internal sub_array and span in C++20
  * Iterator:
      + function_output_iterator now supports perfect forwarding of the
        assigned values to the wrapped function object. (PR#73)
      + Fixed compilation of constructing a function_input_iterator from result
        of post-incrementing another function_input_iterator. (#75)
      + The result of post-incrementing an iterator based on iterator_facade
        now supports operator->. (it++)->foo is equivalent to (*it++).foo,
        which was supported before.
  * JSON:
      + Added object::stable_erase.
      + Added parse overload for std::istream and operator>> for value.
      + Added rvalue ref-qualified accessors for value.
      + Conversion traits were redesigned.
      + Added conversion support for described classes and enums, std::optional
        , std::variant, and null-like types (including std::nullptr_t, std::
        nullopt_t, and std::monotype).
      + Added non-throwing conversion from value to user types.
  * LexicalCast:
      + Fixed compilation while casting volatile arithmetic types. Thanks to
        Giovanni Cerretani for the bug report #50.
      + Removed usage of deprecated headers. Thanks to Michael Ford for the PR
        PR#53.
  * Locale:
      + Major update with some breaking changes.
      + C++11 support is now required, support for C++03 and earlier is dropped
      + Some enums have been converted to enum classes - Avoids name clashes
      + Replace -sICU_LINK_LOCALE & -sICU_LINK by fine-grained configuration
        options as done in Boost.RegEx
      + Fix detection of libiconv allowing Boost.Locale to be build (again) on
        some platforms
      + Remove use of and support for std::auto_ptr
      + Make the codecvt using wchar_t on Windows assume/use UTF-16 enconding
      + Performance improvements: Make basic_format, date_time & hold_ptr
        movable, Fix use of format cache
      + Make Boost.Locale compatible with more ICU versions (especially the
        tests)
      + Fix RTTI definitions for some classes (visibility issues)
      + Fix compatibility of the ICU backend with some libc++ versions
      + Fix return value of some operators to correctly return non-const *this

      + Add support for more Windows codepages
      + Fix support for Windows codepages like ISO-2022-JP
  * Nowide:
      + Fix build failure of tests on MSVC
  * Stacktrace:
      + The library does not use COM initialization any more. Thanks to Alex
        Guteniev for the bug report, clarifications and PR PR#123!
      + The library now may use BOOST_STACKTRACE_BACKTRACE_INCLUDE_FILE macro
        value while detecting the libbacktrace availability in b2, thanks to
        Ben Gemmill for the bug report #115.
      + Added BOOST_STACKTRACE_BACKTRACE_FORCE_STATIC macro to force a single
        backtrace_state static instance while using the libbacktrace. Thanks to
        the Rasmus Thomsen for the bug report #118!
      + Avoid unresolved references when including only the boost/stacktrace/
        stacktrace.hpp header. Thanks to the Long Deng for the bug report #116.
      + Optimized stacktrace printing by not calling strlen on Windows
        platforms. Thanks to Alex Guteniev for the bug report #122
  * PFR:
      + Improved detection of aggregate initializables in C++14 mode, thanks to
        Denis Mikhailov for the PR PR#97.
      + Suppress clang-tidy warnings, thanks to Alexander Malkov for the PRs PR
        #109, PR#104.
      + Use fold expressions if they are supported by the compiler. Thanks to
        Jean-Micha?l Celerier for the PR PR#96.
  * STLInterfaces:
      + Fix two ill-formed iterator_interface operators in pre-C++20 iterators
        with a const value_type.
  * System:
      + The macro BOOST_SYSTEM_DISABLE_THREADS can now be defined to disable
        the use of <mutex> (e.g. on single-threaded libstdc++).
      + Added value_type, error_type, in_place_value, in_place_error to result
        <>.
      + Added emplace to result<>.

        unordered_flat_set based on open addressing.
      + Added CTAD deduction guides for all containers.
      + Added missing constructors as specified in LWG issue 2713.

Version 1.80.0

Known Issues

These are patches from library authors which were found too late to be fixed in
the release.

  * Config
      + Support for libcpp15 which removes std::unary_function and std::
        binary_function. Patch.
  * Filesystem
      + Directory iterators may fail to construct for a network share on
        Windows prior to 10, see PR#246 and #245. Patch.
      + On Windows, weakly_canonical fails to process paths that start with the
        "\\?\" prefix, see #247. Patch.
      + On POSIX systems that don't support *at APIs, compilation fails due to
        a missing include, see #250. Patch.
  * Unordered
      + Containers are not in a valid state after moving, see #139. Patch.
      + Fix MSVC /RTCc build runtime failures. Patch.

New Libraries

  * No new libraries.

Updated Libraries

  * Asio:
      + Added a deduced trailing return type to all asynchronous operations, to
        enable the new form of async_result for C++11.
      + Moved append, prepend, as_tuple, and deferred to the boost::asio
        namespace, and made them compatible with C++11.
      + Made experimental::parallel_group compatible with C++11.
      + Added buffer() overloads for contiguous containers, such as std::span.
      + Added the ability for awaitable<>-based coroutines to directly co_await
        operations that are packaged as function objects.
      + Changed spawn() to be a completion token-based asynchronous operation,
        and added support for cancellation. The basic_yield_context token now
        supports move-only and variadic result types. When targeting C++11 and
        later, spawn() and basic_yield_context are implemented in terms of
        Boost.Context directly.
      + Added the is_async_operation trait and async_operation concept.
      + Added the completion_signature_of trait.
      + Added converting move construction/assignment to posix descriptors,
        serial ports, pipes, Windows object_handle, Windows stream handles, and
        Windows random-access handles.
      + Added release() member functions to pipes, Windows stream handles, and
        Windows random-access handles.
      + Enabled support for Endpoint implementations that return void pointers
        from their data() member functions, as per the documented Endpoint type
        requirements.
      + Removed all() and race() from experimental::promise, as experimental::
        parallel_group covers this functionality.
      + Added source locations to exceptions and error codes produced by the
        synchronous and asynchronous operations.
      + Fixed compatibility with OpenSSL 3.0.4 and later.
      + Fixed compatibility with with -masm=intel.
      + Explicitly stated that socket shutdown() calls are thread-safe with
        respect to certain other synchronous operations on the same socket.
      + Optimised the move construction of I/O objects where only the executor
        type differs.
      + Fixed the detection of std::invoke_result for clang/libc++.
      + Fixed an issue where experimental::parallel_group initiation
        incorrectly moved arguments instead of forwarding them.
      + Fixed a sequencing issue in the implementation of post(), dispatch(),
        and defer().
      + Fixed the awaitable<> implementation to propagate exceptions from
        awaited initiation functions through the current completion handler.
      + Fixed detection of std::aligned_alloc with gcc 7.
      + Changed to avoid using the soon-to-be-deprecated std::aligned_storage
        on newer compilers.
      + Fixed detection of std::aligned_alloc for older Apple platforms.
      + Removed faulty assertions from experimental::coro implementation.
      + Added defence against Qt-defined macros when building with Intel C++.
      + Changed the implementation of the select_reactor, on Windows, to ensure
        that any exception resulting from failure to recreate its interrupter's
        sockets will be allowed to propagate out through io_context::run().
      + Fixed various compiler warnings.
      + Updated all composed operations examples, and the C++11 timeouts
        example, to use the new async_result form.
      + Added composed operation and coroutine examples for C++20.
      + Consult the Revision History for further details.
  * Atomic:
      + Improved portability of endianness checks on ARM, AArch32 and AArch64
        targets. (#59)
      + Fixed compilation with MSVC 14.0 (Visual Studio 2015) in C++17 mode. (#
        61)
  * Filesystem:
      + On Windows, added a fallback implementation for querying file
        attributes in case if the file cannot be opened with
        ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error. This may allow status and symlink_status to
        succeed for system files and directories that are not reparse points or
        symlinks. (#234)
      + On Windows, added a workaround for FAT/exFAT filesystems that produce
        ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER when querying file attributes. This affected
        status and symlink_status, which reported that files do not exist, and
        directory iterators, which failed to construct, as well as other
        dependent operations. (#236, #237)
      + Worked around a compilation problem on RTEMS. (PR#240)
      + On Linux, corrected switching to sendfile copy_file implementation if
        copy_file_range failed with ENOSYS in runtime. The sendfile fallback
        implementation used to skip the filesystem type check and could fail
        for some filesystems.
      + On POSIX systems supporting openat and related APIs defined in
        POSIX.1-2008 and on Windows Vista and later, improved protection of
        remove_all against CVE-2022-21658 that was implemented in the previous
        release. The previous fix could still result in removing unintended
        files in certain conditions. Other systems remain vulnerable.
  * GIL: NOTICE: We are planning BREAKING switch to C++17 as minimum required
    C++ language version in one or two releases after Boost 1.80 (#676)
      + Added
          o GSoC 2020: Added Perona-Malik anisotropic diffusion algorithm (PR#
            500)
          o GSoC 2020: Added histogram class and related functionality (PR#499)
          o GSoC 2020: Added histogram equalization feature (PR#514)
          o GSoC 2020: Added histogram matching algorithm (PR#515)
          o GSoC 2020: Added ability to stack images either horizontally (
            hstack) or vertically (vstack) (PR#506)
          o GSoC 2020: Added adaptive histogram equalization algorithm (PR#516)
          o GSoC 2020: Added Standard Hough Transform and circle rasterization
            (PR#512)
          o GSoC 2020: Added Bresenham's algorithm for line rasterization (PR#
            512)
          o GSoC 2021: Added rotation of image by arbitrary angle around its
            center (PR#565)
          o GSoC 2021: Added rasterization support for ellipse based on "An
            Efficient Ellipse-Drawing Algorithm" by Jerry Van Aken (PR#585)
          o Added image constructor from compatible view (PR#520)
          o Added inverse function for affine matrix3x2 (PR#527)
          o Added standard morphological transformations (PR#541)
          o Added for_each_pixel overload for any_image (PR#648)
          o Added C++17 polymorphic memory resource typedefs for image class (
            PR#529)
      + Changed
          o BREAKING: The required minimum C++ version is changed from from
            C++11 to C++14. Currently, large parts of GIL still compile with a
            C++11 compiler. However, there is no guarantee that it stays that
            way, and any compilers that do not support at least C++14 are
            considered unsupported as of now.
          o BREAKING: any_color_converted_view() is deprecated and will be
            removed in the next release. Use color_converted_view() instead,
            which provides the same feature.
          o BREAKING: apply_operation for any_image is deprecated and will be
            removed in the next release. Use variant2::visit instead, which
            provides the same feature. (PR#656)
          o Moved numeric extension to core (PR#573)
          o Added support for C++17's <filesystem> (PR#636) The availability of
            the std::filesystem is detected automatically, unless the
            BOOST_GIL_IO_USE_BOOST_FILESYSTEM macro is defined that forces the
            preference of the Boost.Filesystem.
          o Renamed pixel_multiply_t to pixel_multiplies_t and pixel_divide_t
            to pixel_divides_t (PR#655)
          o Renamed io/dynamic_io_new.hpp to io/detail/dynamic.hpp (PR#653)
          o Moved function construct_matched into boost::gil::detail namespace
            as it was only used by other implementation details (PR#653)
          o Made packed_pixel trivially copyable and assignable (PR#679)
          o Replace deprecated libtiff v4.3 typedefs with C99 fixed-size
            integers (PR#685)
      + Removed
          o BREAKING: Removed support for GCC 5 (PR#572)
          o Removed deprecated.hpp (PR#627)
      + Fixed
          o Fixed conversion from RGB to HSL (PR#505)
          o Fixed conversion from RGB to signed CMYK (PR#522)
          o Removed unnecessary numeric cast in hsv.hpp (PR#530)
          o Fixed default constructor for homogeneous_color_base for reference
            pixel elements (PR#542)
          o Fixed returning reference to local temporary object in
            subchroma_image_view (PR#556)
          o Added missing header guards in diffusion.hpp (PR#568)
          o Fixed any_image_view<>::const_t (PR#526)
          o Fixed C++20 incompatibilities in I/O extensions (PR#617)
          o Ensured all examples build without errors (PR#628)
          o Fixed convolve_2d for images with float32_t channel model (PR#577)
          o Fixed for_each_pixel for non-1d iterable views (PR#621)
          o Fixed: is_equal_to_sixteen in PNG I/O was less-than test (PR#650)
          o Re-allow devicen_t with two components (PR#654) It was
            unintentionally removed in Boost 1.72
          o Fixed memory leak in image class for empty dimensions (PR#649)

  * Iterator:
      + For C++11 and later, added support for perfect forwarding of values
        written to function_output_iterator. (PR#73)
      + Added protection against writing to function_output_iterator a result
        of dereferencing another function_output_iterator.

  * LEAF:
      + API breaking change: throw leaf::exception(....) now becomes
        leaf::throw_exception(....)
      + Fixed a bug in support for a rare build configuration (exception
        handling enabled, diagnostics disabled)
      + Using nullptr instead of 0 throughout
      + Fixed pedantic warnings
  * Locale:
      + Deprecated support for C++03 and earlier, C++11 will be required in the
        next release
      + Provide -sICU_LINK_LOCALE as a temporary replacement for -sICU_LINK
        which is incompatible with Boost.Regex. -sICU_LINK_LOCALE and -
        sICU_LINK are deprecated and will be replaced by ICU_*_NAME options to
        be compatible with Boost.Regex
      + Fix UB/assertion failure in the ICU collator implementation when
        transforming empty strings
      + Fix some issues related to visibility of classes in shared libraries
        (Unix only)

      + Fix build failures due to missing includes
      + Handle or suppress many warnings which makes the build log cleaner
  * Log:
      + Bug fixes:
          o Fixed binding incorrect local address in UDP socket-based
            syslog_backend when IPv6 address is used for the syslog server. (#
            181)
          o Added a workaround for a bug in libstdc++ from gcc 11.2. When
            max_size_decor was used on a formatting stream, std::codecvt::
            do_length incorrectly accessed the input buffer and caused a buffer
            overflow.
      + See changelog for more details.
  * Math:
      + Deprecated C++11 support: from 2023 we will require C++14 as a minimum
        standard. This will mean GCC-5 or MSVC-14.1 as a minimal requirement.
      + Add constexpr fma support, see 734.
      + Add support for the Chatterjee Correlation Coefficient, see 770.
      + Added support for the logarithm of the PDF for all the distributions.
      + Improve support for building with no exception or RTTI support.
      + Some minor bug fixes for [sub 1]F[sub 1] corner cases, see 778.
  * Multiprecision:
      + Mark C++11 support as deprecated: from 2023 we will move to requiring
        C++14 as a minimum standard level. That will drop support for GCC
        versions prior to 5 and MSVC prior to 14.1.
      + Fix conflict between boost/cstdfloat.hpp and this library.
      + Clean up lots of gcc and clang warnings.
      + Fix input streaming of composite types (complex, interval rational)
        where there is a trailing delimeter in the stream and no whitespace.
      + Fix constexpr integer square root where the input is 1, 2 or 3.
      + Add missing #include of <memory> to float128.hpp.
      + Correct 2-arg constructor for class number to prevent ambiguity in some
        cases.
      + Correct and make more consistent behaviour of divide-by-zero in
        gmp.hpp.
  * Multi-index Containers:
      + Maintenance work.
  * Nowide:
      + Major performance improvement for Bulk I/O with files
      + basic_filebuf: Fix wrong return value of sync when fflush failed
      + basic_filebuf: Fix possible undefined behavior in a corner case when
        nothing was actually written but buffer is in "write" mode
      + basic_filebuf: Limit putback of characters (i.e. pbackfail) only
        allowing putback of buffered characters (may be only 1 character)
  * Optional:
      + Added specializations for std::hash<boost::optional<T>>. \ 
This is a
        breaking change for programs that define such specializations
        themselves. For more details see specs.
  * STLInterfaces:
      + Fix #53: "missing 'typename' prior to dependent type name
        'C::const_iterator'"
      + Fix #54: "Concept check fails on .data() of a view on contiguous
        iterator_interface instantiations"
      + New additions to make it easy to write views and view adaptors that
        work like, and interoperate with, the ones in the standard library:
          o Add workalikes for C++23's std::bind_back() and std::
            range_adaptor_closure for pre-C++23 code.
          o Add templates closure and adaptor to make writing view adaptors
            easier, following the examples in P2387.
  * System:
      + When an error_code is converted to std::error_code and then back to
        error_code, the original is now restored, if possible.
      + Reworked the conversion from error_category to std::error_category to
        avoid the one-time allocation that shows up on leak checkers.
      + Added a constructor that allows replacing the source location of an
        error_code, and a corresponding assign.
      + Added a converting constructor to result.
  * Unordered: Major update:
      + Refactor internal implementation to be dramatically faster
      + Allow final Hasher and KeyEqual objects
      + Update documentation, adding benchmark graphs and notes on the new
        internal data structures
  * Utility:
      + In string_view/string_ref, fixed max_size returning incorrect value. (#
        91)
      + Removed noexcept specifier from string_view::compare as it may throw on
        some input arguments. (#94)
      + In string_view/string_ref, added support for calling substr with no
        arguments. (#96)
      + Added string_view::contains methods that were introduced in C++23. (#93
        )
      + In string_view, added asserts in remove_prefix/remove_suffix methods to
        enforce the precondition that the prefix/suffix length does not exceed
        the string view size. The previous (undocumented) behavior of silently
        clamping the prefix/suffix length is deprecated and will be removed in
        a future release. (#92)
  * Wave: Fixed bugs:
      + #24: Line numbers wrong after conditional section
      + #160: one test fails with error C2660 and error C2440 under msvc /
        permissive- mode
      + #161: BOOST_WAVE_THROW_NAME_CTX does not result in a context callback
        and always throws
      + #162: When Boost headers are included in the preprocessed translation
        unit, Wave fails in boost/integer.hpp(99)

      + Fixed implementation of basic_socket::at_mark() when using the
        sockatmark() system call.
      + Changed the recycling allocator to use the default alignment as the
        minimum alignment for allocations.
      + Added a workaround for apparent coroutine codegen bug with Apple's
        clang.
      + On Windows, changed the file support to open files using the same

          o Reworked reference and requirements documentation in terms of
            asynchronous model.
          o Updated documentation for dispatch(), post(), and defer().
          o Documented per-operation cancellation for serial ports.

            executor_work_guard.
          o Added more detailed reference documentation to make_strand(),
            make_work_guard(), ip::address_v4, ip::address_v6, experimental::

        return "" instead of "(unknown)".
      + Added a source_location constructor from std::source_location.
      + Changed BOOST_CURRENT_LOCATION to more closely match the behavior of
        std::source_location::current(), such as being usable at top level or

  * Atomic:
      + Fixed compilation for Universal Windows Platform (UWP). (#54)
      + Added BOOST_ATOMIC_NO_DARWIN_ULOCK configuration macro. The macro
        affects compilation on Darwin systems and disables ulock-based
        implementation of waiting and notifying operations. This may be useful
        to comply with Apple App Store requirements. (#55)

      + We'd love to know how you or your company use Beast, consider adding an
        entry to the Companies and Individuals Using Beast list.
      + See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.
  * Core:
      + Made boost::pointer_traits SFINAE friendly, addressing LWG3545. (Glen
        Fernandes)
      + Added boost::allocator_traits that uses the individual allocator access
        traits. This implementation supports C++03 and above. (Glen Fernandes)
      + Updated the allocator access traits to support most of the C++11
        allocator model in C++03. (Glen Fernandes)
      + boost/iterator.hpp is deprecated and will be removed in a future
        release. The header defines boost::iterator template, which is
        equivalent to std::iterator in <iterator> header. However, since std::
        iterator is itself deprecated in C++17, users are advised to remove
        boost::iterator or std::iterator use from their code.
      + Added boost::core::verbose_terminate_handler, a utility function
        intended to be passed to std::set_terminate that prints information
        about the uncaught exception to stderr.
  * Describe:
      + Enabled unions in BOOST_DESCRIBE_STRUCT and updated examples to check
        std::is_union<T>.
      + Added example of defining a fmtlib class formatter.
      + Added example of defining a fmtlib enum formatter.
      + Added example of printing pointers to members.
  * Filesystem:
      + v3: path::replace_extension now works in terms of v3 definition of path
        ::extension rather than v4.
      + Fixed compilation of path appending and concatenation operators with
        arguments of types convertible to path or compatible string type. (#223
        )
      + On POSIX systems that support fdopendir and O_NOFOLLOW and on Windows,
        remove_all is now protected against CVE-2022-21658. The vulnerability
        is a race condition that allows a third party process to replace a
        directory that is being concurrently processed by remove_all with a
        directory symlink and cause remove_all to follow the symlink and remove
        files in the linked directory instead of removing the symlink itself. (
        #224)
      + On Windows, in remove and remove_all implementation, use POSIX
        semantics for file removal, when supported by the OS (Windows 10 1709
        and later). When POSIX semantics is supported, the file name is removed
        from the filesystem namespace as soon as the file is marked for
        deletion, even if it is still open and in use. With legacy Windows
        semantics, the file name remains present in the the filesystem
        namespace until the last file handle to the file is closed, which
        allows the file marked for deletion to be opened and prevents creating
        new files with the same name. (#216)
      + On Windows, remove and remove_all now support deleting read-only
        directories. Support for removing read-only non-directory files was
        added previously.
      + On Windows, directory_iterator internal implementation has been
        reworked to better utilize modern Windows APIs, which may improve
        performance while handling symlinks.
      + On Windows, initialize internal WinAPI function pointers early, if
        possible, to allow Boost.Filesystem operations to be invoked in global
        constructors. This is only supported on MSVC, GCC, Clang and compatible
        compilers.
      + On Windows, resize_file should no longer fail with an error if the file
        to be resized is opened.
      + Disabled use of the statx syscall on Android prior to 11.0 (API version
        30). The syscall is blacklisted by seccomp and causes process
        termination in runtime. (#229)
      + Deprecated: boost/filesystem/string_file.hpp header is deprecated and
        will be removed in a future release. The header is no longer included
        by boost/filesystem.hpp by default. Users are advised to implement the
        functionality themselves or migrate to other implementations.
      + Deprecated: Windows CE support is deprecated and will be removed in a
        future release. Windows CE has been untested for many years and is
        likely non-functional.
  * Geometry:
      + Major change
          o PR#977 Rescaling is turned off by default. This avoids many related
            bugs in set operations and buffer.
      + Improvements
          o PR#923 Added algorithm closest_points for cartesian point/geometry.
          o PR#939 Added algorithm closest_points for other coordinate systems
            and geometry combinations excl. boxes.
          o PR#961 Added Web Mercator projection.
          o PR#966 More efficient cartesian distance strategy used in simplify.
      + Solved issues
          o #956 Result of simplify algorithm with incorrect closure.
          o #962 Runtime error in R-tree deserialization due to load factor.
          o #971 R-tree insertion time impacted by use of long double on ARM
            platforms.
      + Bugfixes
          o PR#936 Envelope of polygon containing pole.
          o PR#948 Spherical and geographic envelope for near meridian
            segments.
          o PR#974 Spheroidal normalization utilities for NaN coordinates.
          o Various fixes in set operations and buffer.
  * Integer:
      + Optimized integer_log2 implementation to use bit operations internally.
        This allows to employ bit instructions available on most modern CPUs. (
        #31)
  * IO:
      + Added boost::io::basic_nullbuf, a null stream buffer, and boost::
        basic_onullstream, a null output stream (Glen Fernandes).
  * Iterator:
      + In counting_iterator, added support for built-in 128-bit integer types
        supported by gcc and clang and compatible compilers on some target
        platforms.
      + Silenced gcc warnings about deprecated implicit copy assignment
        operator in counting_iterator.
  * JSON:
      + Standalone mode of the library is removed. Users who wish to continue
        using standalone JSON can switch to the C++ Alliance fork.
      + Add std::error_code overloads.
      + Add boost::source_location to error_codes.
      + Add support for JSON Pointer.
      + Naturally grow string during serialization.
  * LEAF:
      + Support for FreeRTOS and other embedded platforms
      + Improved diagnostic information
      + Improved configuration macros
      + BOOST_LEAF_CHECK using statement expressions under __GNUC__
      + Fixed symbol demangling bug
  * Log:
      + General changes:
          o In text_file_backend, added support for appending to a previously
            written log file, when file rotation is used and log file names use
            file counters.
          o Breaking change: The file_collector interface has changed:
              # scan_for_files method returns a scan_result structure that
                contains information collected during the scan;
              # is_in_storage method added for testing if a path refers to a
                file within the target storage directory.
          o Added a new invoke_manip stream manipulator that can be used for
            injecting user's function into a stream output expression.
      + Bug fixes:
          o Fixed file counter being set to zero if the user calls
            text_file_backend::scan_for_files multiple times, and the second
            and the following calls don't find any new files. (#179)
      + See changelog for more details.
  * Multi-index Containers:
      + Improved the efficiency of count operations in ranked indices from O(
        log(n) + count) to O(log(n)). Contributed by Damian Sawicki.
      + Maintenance work.
  * Nowide:
      + Fix compilation issues on some platforms (e.g. GCC 11 on MinGW-w64 and
        Cygwin)
      + Fix missing include when using BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H and
        WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
      + Add sanity check when using boost::nowide::stat with boost::nowide::
        stat_t
  * Optional:
      + Fixed issue #98.
      + Fixed issue #92.
      + Added support for BOOST_NO_IOSTREAM.
      + Now aligned storage uses unsigned char rather than char to avoid UB.
      + Now using cv-unqualified value_type with placement new to avoid UB.
  * Predef:
      + Version 1.14.0
      + Add detection of LoongArch (from Zhang Na).
  * QVM:
      + Added constexpr under C++17
      + Improved single header distribution
  * Smart Pointers:
      + Added boost::get_allocator_pointer to obtain the Allocator pointer from
        the result of boost::allocate_unique (Glen Fernandes).
  * System:
      + Added a boost::source_location parameter to throw_exception_from_error.
      + Added throw_exception_from_error overloads for errc::errc_t, std::
        error_code, std::errc, std::exception_ptr.
      + result<T>::value now automatically supplies BOOST_CURRENT_LOCATION to
        throw_exception_from_error via a default argument.
      + Added an errc::make_error_code overload taking a source location.
  * ThrowException:
      + Added boost::throw_with_location, a more lightweight alternative of
        BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION for programs that do not use Boost.Exception.
  * Unordered:
      + All containers have been updated to support heterogeneous count,
        equal_range and find.
      + All containers now implement the member function contains.
      + erase_if has been implemented for all containers.
      + All containers have been updated to support heterogeneous erase and
        extract.
      + Changed behavior of reserve to eagerly allocate.
      + Various warning fixes in the test suite.
      + Update code to internally use boost::allocator_traits.
      + Switch to Fibonacci hashing.

          o #135: Comma operators in array subscripts are deprecated in C++20
          o #137: Simple unknown directive => found_unknown_directive is not
            called, stripped of pound.
          o #138: Empty ifdef block does not emit line directive for missing
            whitespace
