What is status of Boost.Sync?
Hi, The library docs docs say it's been in Boost since 1.55. Boost master has no submodule for it. Boost develop has submodule for it If Sync was removed, why it is still in develop? If Sync was added, hence it is in develop, why the docs mention 1.55 and why it is not in master? What is the status of this thing? Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

https://github.com/boostorg/sync/issues/8 In short, Boost.Sync was not removed but rather it was never released (yet) and can be considered a work in progress. As far as the implementation goes, it should be working fine. It has tests, which are passing. The main missing part is the documentation. When it's written, we will probably need some sort of a review, if only a fast track one, then it can be merged to master and released with the rest of Boost.

I see. Thanks for the clarification. TBH, this doc is confusing to me https://github.com/boostorg/sync/blob/master/doc/changelog.qbk Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
