Boost Replaceable by C ++ 11 language features or libraries

Replaceable by C ++ 11 language features or libraries

• Foreach → Range-based
• Functional/Forward → Perfect forwarding (with rvalue references, variadic templates and std: forward)
• In Place Factory, Typed In Place Factory → Perfect forwarding (at least for the specified ented use cases)
• Lambda → Lambda expression (in non-polymorphic cases)
• Local function → Lambda expression
• Min-Max → std: minmax, std: minmax_element
• Ratio → std: ratio
• Static Assert → static_assert
• Thread → <thread>, etc (but check this question ).
• Typeof → auto, decltype
• Value initialized → List-initialization (2.2.8. 5.4/3)

TR1 (they are marked in the documentation if those are TR1 libraries)

• Array → std: array
• Bind → std: bind
• Enable If → std: enable_if
• Function → std: function
• Member Function → std: mem_fn
• Random → <random>
• Ref → std: ref, std: cref
• Regex → <regex>
• Result Of → std: result_of
• Smart Ptr → std: unique_ptr, std: shared_ptr, std: weak_ptr (but boost: intrusive_ptr still cannot be replaced)
• Swap (swapping arrays) → std: swap
• Tuple → std: tuple
• Type Traits → <type_traits>
• Unordered → <unordered_set>, <unordered_map>

Features back-ported from C ++ 11:

• Atomic writable std: atomic
• Chrono lower <chrono> (see below)
• Move parameter Rvalue references

Replaceable by C ++ 14/17 language features or libraries (based on http://isocpp.org/blog/2013/04/trip-report-iso-c-spring-2013-meeting)

• Concept check → Concepts Lite
• Filesystem → <filesystem>
• Optional → std: optional

A large part of MPL can be trimmed down or removed using variadic templates. Some common use cases of Lexical cast can be replaced by std: to_string and std: stoX.

Some Boost libraries are related to C ++ 11 but also have some more extensions, e.g. boost. functional/Hash contains hash_combine and related functions not found in C ++ 11, Boost. chronohas I/O and rounding and export other clocks, etc. so you may still want to take a look at the boost ones before really dismissing them.
