I am having a hard time conciling compile times as a complaint. That is a compiler problem. Or an inevitable problem as the project grows.
I don’t understand how that is a problem with Boost.
Same thing with the IDE. If you add an external library such as Boost, it is natural that your intellisense or whatever IDE feature may get slower.
Both of these are undisputably an issue with the environment as a whole. How on the earth is it a quality problem with Boost!? Please explain.
- a_t48 8y agoNot OP but - Boost is a large library that can be tricky to extract only the portions you want from, leading to instances where you compile a lot of unwanted code, leading to ballooning compile times in exchange for only a little bit of extra functionality that you want. In my experience boost typically ends up being all or nothing, and very hard to remove once integrated.
