  Modularization

  Boost version control has migrated to a system using git submodules. This shouldn't make too much of a difference to users, although the directory structure is now a bit different.

  Parts of some libraries have been moved into different modules, and several new modules have been extracted from existing code. All header paths should remain the same. The new modules are:

  • Assert: Customizable assert macros. Maintained by Peter Dimov.
    </li>
  • Core: Core utilities used by other libraries, with minimal dependencies. Maintained by Peter Dimov, Glen Fernandes and Andrey Semashev.
  • Lexical_Cast: General literal text conversions, such as an int represented a string, or vice-versa, from Kevlin Henney.
  • Throw_Exception: A common infrastructure for throwing exceptions from Boost libraries, from Emil Dotchevski.
  • Winapi: Windows API declarations without <windows.h>, for internal Boost use.
  </ul> </div>

  New Libraries

  • Align: Memory alignment functions, allocators, and adaptors, from Glen Fernandes.
    </li>
  • Type_Index: Runtime/Compile time copyable type info, from Antony Polukhin.
  </ul> </div>

  Updated Libraries

  • Acumulators:

    • New accumulators rolling_variance and rolling_moment
      </li> </ul> </div> </li>
    • Any:

      • Fixed rvalue references related issues (#9215, #9462).
      • Dropped support of antique compilers.
      </ul> </div> </li>
      • Asio:

        • Fixed asio::spawn() to work correctly with new Boost.Coroutine interface (#9442, #9928).
        • Ensured that incomplete asio::spawn() coroutines are correctly unwound when cleaned up by the io_service destructor (#9731).
        • Fixed delegation of continuation hook for handlers produced by io_service::wrap() and strand::wrap() (#9741).
        • Changed the Windows I/O completion port backend to use ConnectEx, if available, for connection-oriented IP sockets.
        • Changed the io_service backend for non-Windows (and non-IOCP Windows) platforms to use a single condition variable per io_service instance. This addresses a potential race condition when run_one() is used from multiple threads.
        • Prevented integer overflow when computing timeouts based on some boost::chrono and std::chrono clocks (#9662, #9778).
        • Made further changes to EV_CLEAR handling in the kqueue backend, to address other cases where the close() system call may hang on Mac OS X.
        • Fixed infinite recursion in implementation of resolver_query_base::flags::operator~ (#9548).
        • Made the select reactor more efficient on Windows for large numbers of sockets (#9528).
        • Fixed a Windows-specific type-aliasing issue reported by gcc (#9550).
        • Prevented execution of compile-time-only buffer test to avoid triggering an address sanitiser warning (#8295).
        • Disabled the GetQueuedCompletionStatus timeout workaround on recent versions of Windows.
        • Added support for string-based scope IDs when using link-local multicast addresses.
        • Changed IPv6 multicast group join to use the address's scope ID as the interface, if an interface is not explicitly specified.
        • Fixed multicast test failure on Mac OS X and the BSDs by using a link-local multicast address.
        • Worked around a gcc problem to do with anonymous enums (#10042).
        • Reverted the Windows HANDLE backend change to ignore ERROR_MORE_DATA. Instead, the error will be propagated as with any other (i.e. in an error_code or thrown as a system_error), and the number of bytes transferred will be returned. For code that needs to handle partial messages, the error_code overload should be used (#10034).
        • Fixed an off-by-one error in the signal_set implementation's signal number check (#9324).
        • Changed to use SSE2 intrinsics rather than inline assembly, to allow the Cray compiler to work.
        • Stopped using certain Winsock functions that are marked as deprecated in the latest Visual C++ and Windows SDK.
        • Added a workaround for building the unit tests with gcc on AIX.
        • Various minor documentation improvements (#8295, #9605, #9771).
        </ul> </div> </li>
        • Assign:

          • Resolve some C++11 ambiguities (#3073).
          </ul> </div> </li>
          • Atomic:

            • The library has been redesigned. Besides internal refactoring, various bugs were fixed, including incorrect values of feature test macros and integer overflow handling.
            • Changed values of the memory_order enumeration. The concrete values are not part of the interface, but this change may potentially break ABI, if the enum is used in user's interfaces.
            • Implemented support for 128-bit atomic operations on Windows x64 with MSVC. The library assumes presence of the cmpxchg16b instruction in the target CPUs. Some early AMD CPUs don't support this instruction. To target those define the BOOST_ATOMIC_NO_CMPXCHG16B macro.
            • Implemented experimental support for Windows ARM target with MSVC.
            • Implemented experimental support for DEC Alpha target with GCC.
            • Improved support for ARMv6 and later with GCC. Implemented all atomic operations as assembler blocks instead of CAS-based loops. 64-bit operations are supported with ARMv7.
            • Implemented optional support for the BOOST_ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT macro and static initialization of atomic_flag. (#8158)
            • Fixed compilation for SPARCv9 target. (#9446)
            • Fixed compilation for PowerPC target. (#9447)
            • Fixed several compatibility problems with Clang on x86 and x86-64. (#9610, #9842)
            • Removed specialized code for Windows on IA64 platform.
            </ul> </div> </li>
            • Circular Buffer:

              • #9970,#9334 Support for the C++11 allocator model.
              • Dropped support of antique compilers.
              </ul> </div> </li>
              • Concept Check:

                </ul> </div> </li>
                • Container:

                  • Added DlMalloc-based Extended Allocators.
                  • Improved configurability of tree-based ordered associative containers. AVL, Scapegoat and Splay trees are now available to implement set, multiset, map and multimap.
                  • Fixed bugs:

                    • #9338: "VS2005 compiler errors in swap() definition after including container/memory_util.hpp".
                    • #9637: "Boost.Container vector::resize() performance issue".

                    • #9915: "Documentation issues regarding vector constructors and resize methods - value/default initialization".
                    • #9916: "Allocator propagation incorrect in the assignment operator of most".
                    • #9931: "flat_map::insert(ordered_unique_range_t...) fails with move_iterators".
                    • #9955: "Using memcpy with overlapped buffers in vector".

                                              • ABI breaking: #9221 showed that BOOST_INTERPROCESS_MSG_QUEUE_CIRCULAR_INDEX option of message queue, was completely broken so an ABI break was necessary to have a working implementation.
                                              • Simplified, refactored and unified (timed_)lock code based on try_lock(). There were several bugs when handling timeout expirations.
                                              • Changed the implementation of condition variables' destructors to allow POSIX semantics (the condition variable can be destroyed after all waiting threads have been woken up)..
                                              • Added BOOST_INTERPROCESS_SHARED_DIR_PATH option to define the shared directory used to place shared memory objects when implemented as memory mapped files.
                                              • Added support for BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H. When this macro is defined Interprocess does not declare used Windows API function and types, includes all needed windows SDK headers and uses types and functions declared by the Windows SDK.
                                              • Added get_size to windows_shared_memory.

                                                        • For Windows targets, the library now compiles for Windows XP by default.
                                                        • Added indexing operators with attribute_name arguments to record and record_view.
                                                        • Added operators for non-const object output to basic_formatting_ostream. (#9389)

                                                          • Math:

                                                            • Breaking change: moved a number of non-core headers that are predominantly used for internal maintenance into libs/math/include_private. The headers effected are boost/math/tools/test_data.hpp, boost/math/tools/remez.hpp, boost/math/constants/generate.hpp, boost/math/tools/solve.hpp, boost/math/tools/test.hpp. You can continue to use these headers by adding libs/math/include_private to your compiler's include path.
                                                            • Breaking change: A number of distributions and special functions were returning the maximum finite value rather than raising an overflow_error, this has now been fixed, which means these functions now behave as documented. However, since the default behavior on raising an overflow_error is to throw a std::overflow_error exception, applications which have come to reply rely on these functions not throwing may experience exceptions where they did not before. The special functions involved are gamma_p_inva, gamma_q_inva, ibeta_inva, ibetac_inva, ibeta_invb, ibetac_invb, gamma_p_inv, gamma_q_inv. The distributions involved are pareto_distrib, beta_distrib, geometric_distrib, negative_binomial_distrib, binomial_distrib, chi_squared_distrib, gamma_distrib, inverse_chi_squared_distrib, inverse_gamma_distrib. See #10111.
                                                            • Fix round and trunc functions so they can be used with integer arguments, see #10066.
                                                            • Fix Halley iteration to handle zero derivative (with non-zero second derivative), see #10046.
                                                            • Fix Geometric distribution use of Policies, see #9833.

                                                            • Added bernoulli_numbers, changed arbitrary precision tgamma/lgamma to use Sterling's approximation (from Nikhar Agrawal).
                                                            • Added first derivatives of the Bessel functions: cyl_bessel_j_prime, cyl_neumann_prime, cyl_bessel_i_prime, cyl_bessel_k_prime, sph_bessel_prime and sph_neumann_prime (from Anton Bikineev).
                                                            • Fixed buggy Student's t example code, along with docs for testing sample means for equivalence.
                                                            • Documented max_iter parameter in root finding code better, see #9225.
                                                            • Add option to explicitly enable/disable use of __float128 in constants code, see #9240.
                                                            • Cleaned up handling of negative values in Bessel I0 and I1 code (removed dead code), see #9512.
                                                            • Fixed handling of very small values passed to tgamma and lgamma so they don't generate spurious overflows (thanks to Rocco Romeo).
                                                            • #9672 PDF and CDF of a Laplace distribution throwing domain_error Random variate can now be infinite.
                                                            • Fixed several corner cases in rising_factorial, falling_factorial and tgamma_delta_ratio with thanks to Rocco Romeo.
                                                            • Removed constant pow23_four_minus_pi whose value did not match the name (and was unused by Boost.Math), see #9712.

                                                                    • The erase(iterator) member function of hashed indices used to have poor performance under low load conditions due to the requirement that an iterator to the next element must be returned (see ticket #4264). In accordance with the resolution of LWG issue #579, this problem has been fixed while maintaining the interface of erase, at the expense of using one more word of memory per element. In fact, C++ complexity requirements on unordered associative containers have been improved for hashed indices so that
                                                                      • deletion of a given element is unconditionally constant-time,

Old archives involving hashed index (local) iterators can be loaded by Boost 1.56 version of Boost.MultiIndex, but not the other way around.
                                                                      </li>

This leads to smaller binaries and better compilation times but in some cases may break metaprogramming functions, especially if BOOST_VARIANT_ENUM_PARAMS and BOOST_VARIANT_ENUM_SHIFTED_PARAMS are not used. Usage of variadic templates may be disabled.
