version of detail/endian.hpp into this next release? It'd be great to get this licensing issue resolved in this next Boost version, if at all possible.

I don't know. I haven't been following that. Did anyone take responsibility for it?

It's highly unlikely. There is al alternative implementation in Boost Predef. But that isn't even fully accepted as a library. I could attempt to do a standalone port from Predef into detail/endian.hpp but I doubt I could both get it done and tested to a point that it would be safe to merge into release.

I'm restarting work on the boost endian library, so I'd be willing to take this on. If you send me your Predef port of detail/endian.hpp, I'll see if I can move it along. No promises until I see what you have, however.

The current Predef code is at https://github.com/grafikrobot/boost-predef. The compatibility header is at < https://github.com/grafikrobot/boost-predef/blob/master/include/boost/predef/detail/endian_compat.h> but it obviously depends on the core endian header at < https://github.com/grafikrobot/boost-predef/blob/master/include/boost/predef/other/endian.h>. And that depends on both the architecture.h and windows.h detection headers.

Not sure if it's worth working on it on your Endian library though.. As, AFAIK, both Endian and Predef are in the same acceptance status. But perhaps if you can make a totally standalone version of the detection it might be worth it.

Sorry.. Silly me I thought that Endian was already accepted after the initial conditional acceptance. Anyway.. I'll try and get Predef into Boost trunk soon. But obviously not soon enough for the 1.54 release. -- -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo

Rene, I suspect that you missed the acceptation of your library
