  • Geometry:
    • Improvements:
      • Add correct() overload taking area strategy
      • Add is_convex() overload taking side strategy

      • 13035 Wrong result of non-cartesian intersection strategies for segments near poles.
      • 13057 Wrong result of intersects() for linestrings caused by numerical issue in disjoint() for boxes.
    • Bugfixes:
      • Fix is_valid which could return false for multipolygons where an interior ring touches another interior ring
      • Fix is_valid which could return false for multipolygons where a polygon was located in an interior ring, all touching each other
      • Fix union which could produce invalid results (for some cases, this needs to define BOOST_GEOMETRY_INCLUDE_SELF_TURNS)

  • Log:
    • General changes:
      • Improved compatibility with Solaris.
    • See changelog for more details.
  • Phoenix:
    • Corrected some documentation. (PR#50)
    • phoenix::erase with associative container returns iterator in C++11 mode. (#7423)
    • std::set and std::multiset should be worked with predefined lazy functions. (PR#52)
    • Disable phoenix::random_shuffle in C++17. (PR#53)
    • Don't forward declare, include instead. (#11875)
  • Predef:
    • Fix Intel C/C++ version 9999 detection to be 12.1.0.
    • Addition of BOOST_PREDEF_WORKAROUND and BOOST_PREDEF_TESTED_AT macros for defect workarounds and detection.
    • Add ARM64 MSVC SIMD detection. (from Minmin Gong)
    • Add detection of iOS simulator vs device as a platform choice. (from Ruslan Baratov)
    • Fix MinGW incorrect header guard. (from Ruslan Baratov)
  • Program Options:
    • Support for storing values into boost::optional, thanks to Ed Catmur (#7495, PR#18)
    • Parsing of implicit options can now use the value from the next token. Since 1.59, unless the value of implicit option was specified in the same token as the option itself, the implicit value was used. That proved inconvenient, and now we again check the next token and use it as value if it's not an option itself. (#25)
  • Python:
    • eval(), exec(), and exec_statement() now allow char const * arguments, in addition to boost::python::str.
    • The boost::python::numeric API has been removed, as it is being obsoleted by boost::python::numpy.
    • Fix some build issues when using Python3 with MSVC.
  • Smart Pointers:
    • New class templateatomic_shared_ptr, that provides thread-safe atomic pointer operations over shared_ptr. (Peter Dimov)
    • New class template local_shared_ptr, where the reference count is updated with non-atomic operations. (Peter Dimov)
    • More optimizations in allocate_shared and make_shared for arrays. (Glen Fernandes)
    • Documentation has been completely rewritten in Asciidoc format.
  • Test:
    • Boost.test v3.6 see the Change log section for more details.
    • New feature:
      • C++17 compatibility (tested on VS2017), thanks to Daniela Engert
      • Direct comparison of C-arrays in BOOST_TEST
      • Better global fixtures mechanism, and spitting of responsibilities with BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE for global fixtures and BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_CONFIGURATION for global initialization (compile time configuration).
      • Improved support for fixtures (setup / teardown member function) which enables better teardown time checks
    • Breaking changes
      • Some API changes for the loggers
      • Deprecating BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE in favor of BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE and BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_CONFIGURATION (see above)
    • Bug fixes
  • Thread:
  • TypeIndex:
    • Include <boost/functional/hash.hpp> if required, thanks to Ed Catmur #13009.
    • Use native hash_code() when possible on GCC-like compilers #13027.
    • Fix ctti_type_index for GCC 7 and later, thanks to Benjamin Buch PR16.
  • Typeof:
  • Unordered:
    • Use the same data structure for unordered_set and unordered_multiset, and forunordered_map and unordered_multimap. This is required for C++17, so that nodes can be merged and extracted between compatible containers.
    • Add deprecated attributes to long deprecated functions.
    • Improved use of allocator_traits construct and destroy on C++11 compilers, using piecewise pair construction when appropriate.
    • Fewer workarounds on newer Oracle compilers.
    • Avoid dereferencing pointers to uninitialized memory (PR #5).
  • Utility:
    • Improved compatibility of boost::next/boost::prior with SFINAE-unfriendly iterators. #10847, #13002.
  • Variant:
    • r-value overload for boost::get was added by Albert Sverdlov #13018.
    • Missing include fro <boost/variant/polymorphic_get.hpp> header was added by Adam Badura #13037.
    • boost::make_variant_over was fixed and now works with views and other Forward Sequences (thanks to Mikhail Maksimov for the fix) #8554, #10041, PR#35.
