Hi again,
just noticed that the make_fcontext() documentation says that it expects the stack pointer to be at the end or at the beginning, depending on the architecture.
So please re-read my last mail as a feature request:
If Boost.Context is a platform-independent context switching library, please make its stack pointer parameter also platform-independent.
Rationale:
Booost.Context knows best on which platform it runs. If the API is supposed to work the same on all supported systems, its parameter should do so, too.
Other than that: Sorry for wasting your time.
I have the same opinion and I had argued that with the lib author, but he somewhat insisted that Booost.Context should not do so... :( See: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/context-How-to-set-stack-pointer-in-a-pla...
