<p>If you come across a bug, or other issue, with one of the libraries, go through the following process to report it:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>If you know where to look in the source code, make sure the bug isn&#8217;t already fixed in the latest sources, refer to the <a href="https://github.com/boostorg">Boost.org repositories</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="https://github.com/boostorg/boost/issues">Search the issues</a> on GitHub to make sure we don&#8217;t already know about the bug. If we do, you can certainly add further information to an existing bug ticket.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>If the bug has not been fixed already, and there is no relevant issue, then report it.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The repositories use the built-in GitHub issue tracker. With Boost, users are encouraged to use the issue tracker for discussions and feature requests, as well as to report bugs and other issues.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To report an issue, locate the <strong>New Issue</strong> button in the repo for the library. For example, <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/json/issues" class="bare">https://github.com/boostorg/json/issues</a> for the <a href="https://www.boost.org/libs/json">Boost.Json</a> library.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When reporting a bug or issue, you might be offered a range of templates to choose from to guide your filing. If there is no template to follow, cut-and-paste the following into the text field for the issue, and replace the text in italics with appropriate details.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-markdown hljs" data-lang="markdown">### Version of Boost
_Enter the Boost version number, such as `1.82.0`._
### Actual and Expected Behavior
_Describe the result you got, and what you consider the result should be._
_Attach a _minimal_ and _complete_ program that reproduces the problem._
_Aside from helping the library maintainer fix the problem, you may find the bug in your own code, which can avoid a costly delay waiting for a response._
### Steps necessary to reproduce the problem
_Describe the problem carefully, including steps required to reproduce it by library maintainers._
_A small compiling program is the best. If your code is public, you can provide a link to the repository._
### All relevant compiler information
_If you are unable to compile include the type and version of compiler you are using as well as all compiler output including the error message, file, and line numbers involved._</code></pre>
