| <h2>Compiler Support</h2> |
| |
| Boost.MultiArray was designed with compiler support in mind. |
| Interface compromises were kept to a minimum, but efforts were |
| made to account for C++ Standard compliance issues in compilers |
| that were popular at the time the library was written. That said, |
| Boost.MultiArray has been tested with the following compilers: |
| <ol> |
| <li> Gnu C++ Compiler v2.95.2 (compile with <tt>-ftemplate-depth-50</tt>) |
| <li> Gnu C++ Compiler v3.0.2 |
| <li> Kuck and Associates C++ Compiler v4.0f |
| <li> Microsoft Visual C++ v6.0 sp5 |
| <li> Comeau C++ Compiler v4.2.45 beta 2 (libcomo beta 14) |
| <li> Intel C++ Compiler v5.0 (with MS lib v6.0 sp5) |
| <li> Metrowerks CodeWarrior C++ Compiler v7.1 |
| </ol> |
| |
| Boost.MultiArray is known to NOT work with Borland C++ v5.5.1. |
| Support for this compiler is forthcoming. |
| |
| |
| <h2>Future Work</h2> |
| |
| The following is a list of work that is intended for the near future |
| -- following the initial addition of the library to the Boost |
| distribution: |
| <ol> |
| <li> Pursue and document performance issues related to compilers and |
| implementation. |
| <li> More comprehensive examples of using the library components. |
| <li> Extensive rewrite of the user documentation to make it more accessible. |
| </ol> |
