C++11/14 can we remove boost? #14

Closed tsaubergine closed 1 year ago

tsaubergine commented 7 years ago

It would be valuable to examine if we can remove boost by using C++11 features, and perhaps rewriting the parts of DCCL that rely on boost::any.

Perhaps part of DCCL 3.1?

This would break builds on Debian Wheezy and RHEL/CentOS 6 (and prior versions). I'm not using anything that old, but someone might be.

Yes, if this happens it will be a new release series, probably 3.1. 3.0 would continue to be maintained with bug fixes.

FYI - for our part, we're relying on C++14, and happy with it. Makes a big difference in code cleanliness.
