RC1 came out on Monday, and it had some problems.
Specifically: * Some libraries didn't build with ToT clang/libc++ (Locale, Wave and Test) This is because in C++17, some deprecated library features have been removed. [bind1st, mem_fun, auto_ptr, random_shuffle, etc ]
numeric/conversion also has un-merged changes in develop for this issue which prevents the Math lib tests building on master in C++17 mode.
Boost.Config has support for these removals, but this was ... incomplete. [ This is on me; I did the partial job of adding these to Config's libc++ support a while back ]
Merged to master as requested.
Normally, I would be tempted to say "Well, clang 5 is not shipping yet, and so we can put this off until 1.66.0". But both clang 5 and C++17 are imminent (they will both happen well before the 1.66 release, and so I think we should fix this now. Also, a future version of MSVC will have the same library issues.
So I have committed a fix for Boost.Config that fixes the Boost.Test issues. Hartmut has fixed most of the Boost.Wave issues. Artymom has a fix for Boost.Locale.
Windows/MSVC builds look good across the board.
* Boost.Fiber fails to build on Mac OS with anything other than -std=c++03. There is a fix in develop for this; but there's still a bunch of tests failing.
* There's a problem from the beta in Boost.Math.
The regression regarding boost/math/common_factor_ct.hpp (vs math_fwd.hpp) seems to be still there. (For details please see the original mail and replies: https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2017/07/237452.php https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2017/07/237452.php)
What I presume is the fix (https://github.com/boostorg/math/pull/75 https://github.com/boostorg/math/pull/75) was merged into develop about 12 hours ago, some automatic CI tests still running.
I can cheery pick this if requested, I would note however, that this issue was in the previous release or two as well :( Best, John. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com
