Averting dependency on boost.filesystem ? #40

Closed jcelerier closed 5 years ago

jcelerier commented 6 years ago

This has the huge drawback of requiring the compiled parts of boost which is much more complicated to handle in a cross-platform way than the header-only parts of boost. Wouldn't it be possible to optionally depend on std::filesystem if available ?

apolukhin commented 6 years ago

Yes, it's possible.

Not shure that I'll have time to implement that any time soon. So PR are wellcomed

@apolukhin what needs to be done in order to bring this forward (into master) ?

apolukhin commented 5 years ago

@Fohlen just give me a few more days to resolve merge conflicts and fix typos

apolukhin commented 5 years ago

Done.
