Will there be another RC?
I have been informed of this problem:
https://github.com/boostorg/log/issues/44
which is basically a potential conflict between Boost.Thread and
Boost.Log on Windows if headers from both libraries are included. In
particular, the problematic header in Boost.Log is
boost/log/utility/permissions.hpp, which is only used for IPC-related
functionality.
The fix is in develop:
https://github.com/boostorg/log/commit/525c53b1a735f21d9b51d432b93a79f4f8b73c6b
If there is a chance to include it in 1.66, I would like to do it.
If not, could the link to this commit be added to the release notes?
Thanks.
