#3577 closed Bugs (fixed)

feature not implemented as documented (or vice versa)

Reported by: Guido Saßmannshausen <sassmannshausen@…> Owned by: Samuel Krempp
Milestone: Boost 1.41.0 Component: format
Version: Boost 1.40.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: tabulator, printf syntax Cc:

Description

according to http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/libs/format/doc/format.html#printf_directives, tabulators are specified by enclosing curly braces, which rather are pipe-symbols in the current implementation. (read: %{nt} vs. %|nt|). Small hicup, but quite a bit of surprise and confusion, if read by the uninitiated (causes formatsyntax exceptions)

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Indeed, those brackets were left from a very early implementation and I failed to replace them when adopting the pipe symbols.

It's corrected in the trunk (revision 57671), thanks for reporting.

I forgot to write the revision with a traclink (very practical) : r57671

hmm, since there was a mixup with the html editor, that revision actually changed the whole file and there was actually 2 revisions to undo the formatting. That'll be much more readable as a diff:@57669:57671
