    Boost versions <1.73 have C++20-specific bugs that were fixed in the following commits:

    I tested libboost1.71-dev in Ubuntu 20.04 and Boost 1.71, 1.72, 1.73 in our depends build system.

    Closes #29063.

    This one could be fixed alternatively (in theory) by nuking signals2, but I don’t think this will happen any time soon.

    Oops… Forgot to update a version in the AX_BOOST_BASE macro.

    Fixed now.

    Sorry.

    I know a [WIP] branch for this “exists” in some form. cc @theuni

    It’s not a WIP so much as a POC: https://github.com/theuni/bitcoin/commits/replace-boost-signals/

    That implements the subset of signals that we rely on as a drop-in replacement. It passes tests and would serve as a good guide, but I don’t think that’s how we’d want to do it.

    I could look at picking it up again and doing it right if there’s interest.

  25. maflcko commented at 4:19 pm on December 14, 2023: member
    I was looking in moving boost signals2 into one translation unit (because it is so heavy and keeps the compiler busy), to only expose the stuff that is needed, but if it is possible to re-implement signals2 in 150 LOC, that seems preferable?
  26. theuni commented at 4:48 pm on December 14, 2023: member
    @maflcko IIRC I wanted to fix #26442 before going forward with the replacement, as that makes the implementation more straightforward and greatly simplifies testing. Any interest in taking a look there?
