The docs [1] for the `scoped_thread` and `strict_scoped_thread` says
"While thread call std::terminate() on the destructor is the thread is joinable, strict_scoped_thread<> or scoped_thread<> join the thread if joinable.
Several other places on the page say something similar.
I was under in the impression that Boost.Thread had toyed with adopting this behaviour to match `std::thread` but decided against it after complaints on this list. Am I wrong?
It depends on a macro, but the non-standard behaviour is deprecated: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#...
Hmmm, could have sworn I remembered the decision being reversed completely. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it's being changed. Just not what I remembered. Thanks, Alex -- Swish - Easy SFTP for Windows Explorer (http://www.swish-sftp.org)
