https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1937 <p> The documentation for Boost.Filesystem uses the phrase "implementation defined" in at least one place without subsequently defining whatever it is (see the pathname grammar). Since these docs have to describe a particular implementation and not just be a prototype for standardization, don't we need to fill in the details? </p> <p> I also wonder if adhering to the standard documentation form for reference materials really makes this library accessible enough for general use. Even understanding the first example program ("simple ls") requires me to read through a great deal of reference material to understand what's going on. Maybe that just means a more complete tutorial is needed? </p> <p> -- Dave Abrahams <a class="missing wiki">BoostPro</a> Computing <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.boostpro.com"><span class="icon">​</span>http://www.boostpro.com</a> </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1937 Trac 1.4.3 Beman Dawes Fri, 11 Jun 2010 15:54:06 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1937#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1937#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">fixed</span> </li> </ul> <p> A completely new tutorial has been written for Boost.Filesystem Version 3, which will ship with Boost release 1.44. </p> <p> Thanks, </p> <p> --Beman </p> Ticket
