Dmitry's Q2 2024 Update

https://cppalliance.org/dmitry/2024/07/12/dmitrys-q2-update.html

Direct parsing, extended serialisation and try_ accessors with source_location are now supported by Boost.JSON; a temporary proxy conversion is pending. Docs are generated by Docca using Jinja, and staging‑prefix installs are supported by Boost.Build.

    The update outlines work on Boost infrastructure: CDN migration, Fastly VCL tuning, OAuth, S3 uploads, release tools, Mailman3 fixes, wowbagger disk recovery, CI improvements for Jenkins, LLVM CI discussions, GHA VM images, cpp.al blog rendering, Drone CI updates.
  • Some Thoughts on Documentation
    Link #JSON
    The documentation pipeline for Boost.JSON was migrated from Doxygen‑generated Quickbook to AsciiDoc using a Python conversion tool and a multipage Asciidoctor plugin, restructuring overload comments and planning replacement of Doxygen with Mr.Docs.
  • Dmitry's Q1 2024 Update
    Link #Endian
    During Q1 2024 work on Boost.JSON included direct serialization and cleanup, a performance regression in the parser was identified and will be fixed, number serialization is being reimplemented with Charconv pending compiler support, Boost.Endian replaced internal endianness handling, and a recursive filesystem::path conversion bug was resolved.
  • Dmitry's Q4 2023 Update
    Link #JSON
    In Q4 2023 the JSON library’s direct parsing was completed and released in Boost 1.84.0, after which work shifted to implementing direct serialization using the standard serializer, with performance optimizations, CIdriven benchmarking, and coverage analysis guiding refactoring; completion is targeted for the next Boost release.
