be possible to remove this library at some time in the future as

The Python script:
|
||||
<tt><a href="generate_cpp_c_headers.py">generate_cpp_c_headers.py</a> </tt>creates a full set of C++ C header files
|
||||
(e.g. <cstdio>) that are missing on some platforms.
|
||||
The header files created by this script reside in the directory <tt><a href="../../boost/compatibility/cpp_c_headers/">boost/compatibility/cpp_c_headers</a></tt>.
|
||||
To use the header files, add this directory to the include
|
||||
file search path. For example:
|
||||
|

<pre>

There are more powerful alternatives to using

the Boost.Compatibility library CXX headers, e.g.

<a href="http://www.stlport.org/">STLport</a> or

<a href="http://www.fnal.gov/docs/working-groups/fpcltf/Pkg/ISOcxx/doc/0ISOcxx.html">ISOCXX</a>.
|
||||
However, in contrast to these alternatives, the
|
||||
<tt>generate_cpp_c_headers.py</tt> script is very light-weight (less
|
||||
than 100 non-comment lines of Python code), much less ambitious,
|
||||
significantly easier to maintain and therefore more suitable as an interim workaround.

Missing C++ standard library <limits> header workaround <a href="../../boost/limits.hpp">boost/limits.hpp</a></h2>

<p>Several Boost libraries require the standard library's <limits> header,
|

yet this header is not always supplied by non-conforming compilers and
|

libraries. Header <a href="../../boost/limits.hpp">boost/limits.hpp</a>

otherwise includes <a href="../../boost/detail/limits.hpp">boost/detail/limits.hpp</a>.
|

BOOST_NO_LIMITS from <a href="../config/config.htm">boost/config.hpp</a> is used
|
||||
to determine <limits> availability.
