#7676 closed Bugs (fixed)

Config macro deprecations are not documented

Reported by: gromer@… Owned by: Marshall Clow
Milestone: To Be Determined Component: config
Version: Boost 1.52.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: Cc:

Description

boost/config/suffix.hpp indicates that a large block of config macros (e.g. BOOST_NO_AUTO_DECLARATIONS) were deprecated in version 1.51.0. However, the library documentation does not indicate that these macros are deprecated, and does not document their replacements at all. This is particularly problematic because this deprecation is having user-visible effects (see e.g. ticket:7675).

Marshall, as you made the changes that deprecated those macros can you take a look?

Thanks! John.

Quite strange. I know I documented them. Yep, they're there in the QBK file - but not in the HTML.

Investigating ...

(In [81443]) Website: Update config docs for 1.51 and 1.52. Refs #7676.

You might have to shift-reload to see the updated pages, as the cache for 1.52 docs is set to 1 week. Please don't mark this fixed until the documentation is in the release branch.

In [81827], all the changes in the docs have been merged to the release branch.

I think we're good now.
