https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/2873 <p> There is a minor bug in the synoposis of the incomplete beta function documentation. Specifically the #include is for the gamma function. See e.g. </p> <p> <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/libs/math/doc/sf_and_dist/html/math_toolkit/special/sf_beta/ibeta_function.html">http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/libs/math/doc/sf_and_dist/html/math_toolkit/special/sf_beta/ibeta_function.html</a> </p> <p> If you do use this include blindly the result error is a link error (presumably the gamma function sees a forward declaration of the beta function somewhere), which is relatively confusing when one is used to Boost.Math being mostly a header-only library. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/2873 Trac 1.4.3 John Maddock Sat, 21 Mar 2009 09:48:11 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/2873#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/2873#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> (In <a class="changeset" href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/changeset/51879" title="Fixes #2873: Change doc source to point to the correct #include for ...">[51879]</a>) Fixes <a class="closed ticket" href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/2873" title="#2873: Bugs: Doc bug in boost / math / incomplete beta (closed: fixed)">#2873</a>: Change doc source to point to the correct #include for the beta function and regenerate the docs. </p> Ticket
