    Version 1.70 is most recent.

    Other than iOs support, are there are any other reasons for updating the Boost version? Otherwise this can wait until #12557 is closer to merge readiness. @fanquake [suggested]( #12557 (review)) bumping straight to 1.69

    This is sporadically updated to the latest version, so might as well do 1.69
  8. Sjors commented at 1:47 pm on February 22, 2019: member

    Mmm, Travis build for 32-bit ARM is unhappy:

    0undefined reference to `boost::system::system_category()

    I’ll try if 1.69 magically makes that problem go away.

    Relevant release notes from Boost 1.65.0 -> 1.69.0:

    1.69.0

    Filesystem

    • Fixed crashes in boost::filesystem::copy due to undefined behavior in the implementation.
    • Fixed undefined behavior in boost::filesystem::directory_iterator implementation.
    • Fixed MSVC warnings about narrowing conversions.

    System

    • Boost.System is now header-only. A stub library is still built for compatibility, but linking to it is no longer necessary.
    • The destructor of error_category is now protected and no longer virtual. This is a potentially breaking change, but its impact is expected to be limited.

    1.68.0

    Boost.WinAPI has been updated to target Windows 7 by default, where possible. In previous releases Windows Vista was the default.

    Test

    • Breaking change: The master_test_suite_t object is no more copyable

    1.67.0

    Filesystem

    • Fix static initialization issue that caused a crash if path operations were used before main()

    Test

    • Breaking change: Adding test cases with the same name to the same test suite is now reported as an error. See the changes log for more details.

    1.66.0

    Thread

    • Many Windows related fixes.

    1.65.0

    Test

    • C++17 compatibility (tested on VS2017)

    Breaking Changes

    • Some API changes for the loggers
    • Deprecating BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE in favor of BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE and BOOST_TEST_GLOBAL_CONFIGURATION.

    Concept ACK.

    Then this could be updated:https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/ce6762030f814bc737bb0a097c17201e0b2edbc5/src/wallet/walletutil.cpp#L70-L72

    Concept ACK. Agree with @promag’s comments.

    Rebased and adjusted the version in dependencies.md. We can’t change walletutil.cpp because the minimum Boost version (1.47.0) doesn’t change with this PR. Changing the minimum version can be done in a followup, but there’s no urgent need afaik.

    It seems that not even debian experimental is at 1.70. I guess that means we are the beta testers? Let’s hope debian ships it within the next couple of months.

    On Gentoo it exists but is masked (not stable).
