1.5

  • Fix Intel C/C++ compiler version specification.
  • Add BOOST_VERSION_NUMBER_MAJOR, BOOST_VERSION_NUMBER_MINOR, BOOST_VERSION_NUMBER_PATCH macros to extract components from valid version numbers.
  • Change VS version numbering. Version after VS2015 will use the compiler version instead of the varied product versions.

1.4.1

  • Small fixes for some redefinition errors, and mispelled macros.
  • Slightly rearrangement of structure to comply with current library requirements.

1.4

  • Add detection of SIMD hardware. With the addition of the BOOST_HW_* category (from Charly Chevalier).
  • Add compile only version of check utilities to address cross-compile use cases. And changed the BBv2 check support to use compile only checks.
  • Fix test warnings.
  • Fix typos on AVAILABLE macros for Windows Platform. (from Vemund Handeland)

1.3

  • Fix many problems with predef_check functionality.
  • Update SunPro detection to accomodate latest version of compiler from Oracle.
  • Addition of Travis-CI and Appveyor testing.
  • Add and and or logical operators for predef_check expression on the Boost Build side.
  • Fix BOOST_ARCH_PARISC to correctly spelled name (from Graham Hanson).
  • Fix MAKE_YYYYM macros to correctly limit the month (from rick68).

1.2

  • Account for skip in Visual Studio product version vs. compiler version. This supports version of VS 2015 an onward.
  • Add detection of Haiku OS (from Jessica Hamilton).
  • Some fixes to endian detection for Android (from mstahl-at-redhat.com).
  • Add missing BOOST_PREDEF_MAKE_0X_VVRRPP macro (from Erik Lindahl).
  • Add predef_check program and BBv2 integration for build configuration checks.

1.1

  • Addition of BOOST_PLAT_* platform definitions for MinGW and Windows platform variants.
  • Detection of ARM architecture for Windows compilers to target mobile devices of Windows 8.
  • Improved ARM detection for 64 bit ARM.
  • Added detection of iOS an an operating system.
  • Improved detection of endianess on some platforms.
  • Addition of exclusive plus emulated definitions for platform and compiler detection.
[Warning] Warning

The big change for this version is the restructuring of the definitions to avoid duplicate definitions in one category. That is, only one BOOST_OS_*, BOOST_COMP_*, and BOOST_PLAT_* variant will be detected (except for sub-categories).
