More Boost in DC++
Posted: 23 Jan 2011, 02:01
Before I start, I'm not trying to say "this is how it should be done" i would just like to start a discussion to help me learn more
Looking through launchpad last week I stumbled across this branch of linuxdcpp https://code.launchpad.net/~gpr/linuxdcpp/boost where it seems to be moving more stuff which can be done in boost, into boost.
A good example of this can be seen in this commit http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~gpr/linuxd ... vision/383
To me the resulting code looks a lot simpler to maintain, being a lot less of it! And since it's using boost should be pretty safe / good quality.
Do people think code changes like this should also be done in DC++ ? Are there any negative consequences of this ?
thanks
