Re: [boost] [config] Configuring for C++14 and later library features.

Further, if we get requests for more such feature-detection macros, we would end up including the whole std lib (see http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2013/n3745#recs.cpp14).

Heh, almost exactly a year ago: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.c++.isocpp.features/17/match=Boost

Boost.Config does record some library features, and may have to include many headers in order to access the macros, which might be undesirable.

This doesn't look acceptable to me, but what to do?

Bring it up on isocpp.features. Thanks, Steve.
