At this point in time (with GCC 6.2 as my default compiler in my development environment), I'd use std::shared_ptr, and fall back to boost::shared_ptr for environments without C++11 support.
How would you fall back to support boost::shared_ptr ?
With something as simple as: #if __cplusplus >= 201103L // use std::shared_ptr ... #else // use boost::shared_ptr ... #endif
(In practice it's often the other way around. Consider Boost.Python: it has been supporting boost::shared_ptr for a long time, and I just now managed to add support for std::shared_ptr. I expect to eventually deprecate support for boost::shared_ptr, but that will still take a few years.)
So your interface(s) need to support both in the meantime ?
