29[section Phoenix - warning on *lambda and let*]
30
31* There are a number of bugs in the implementation of *lambda* and *let* constructs in Boost Phoenix 3.0.6 (Boost release 1.57.0).
32* These are currently being investigated and a better version for Boost 1.58.0.
33* The constructs are not completely unusable and many of the tests run.
34* Some usage may work with some compilers but not others.
35* Workarounds for different compilers are being made available and can be seen in the tests where they are used.
36* For Boost Phoenix 3.2.0 most tests now run and work is continuing to resolve the remaining problems.

40[section Phoenix 3.2.0 (Boost 1.58.0)]
41
42* Phoenix now has a lazy list implementation which is very similar but not identical to the implementation provided by __fcpp__.
43  * Details can be found in __phoenix_lazy_list__.
44  * Tests have been added for the new features provided.
45  * This is an addition which causes no changes to the previous public interface.
46* Fixes for #10927 and #11085
47
48[endsect]
49
50[section Phoenix 3.1.1]
51
52* This is the start of a series of changes which continue the fixing of the bugs.
53* There are new examples and tests which show the capability of phoenix.
54* A new example bind_goose shows the compatibility between boost bind and boost phoenix bind.
55* New tests lazy_argument_tests, lazy_make_pair_tests, lazy_templated_struct_tests show different possible uses of boost phoenix function objects.
56

58
59[section Phoenix 3.1.0]
60
61This contains a series of updates to Phoenix to fix some bugs and
62to extend the examples. Details of the changes will be found in the __changelog__
63and the release number will be increased for each set of changes released.
64
65* A start is being made on updating the documentation.
66* A bug has been fixed which was causing a lot of test examples of *bind* to fail. This was particularly the case with more recent compilers which are stricter.
67* TODO
68  There is still a lot of work to be done on fixes, documentation and examples.
69
70[endsect]
71
72[section Phoenix 3.0.6 (Boost 1.57.0)]
73
74* Fixed bug in example/container_actor.cpp in end() function.
75* Fixed bug4853 and 5626 - added header <utility> for std::forward.
76* Fixed bug4853 - added header <iostream> for gcc 4.9 test
77
78[endsect]
79
80[section Phoenix 3.0.5]
81
82* Introduction of __changelog__ and release number increments.
83* Added BOOST_PHOENIX_VERSION_NUMBER using boost/predef style.
84* Fixes to bugs #5714 and #5824 are particularly important as they fixed silent errors
85  in the processing of some compound expressions with commas.
86* *This could cause output from some user codes to change unexpectedly.*

91[section Phoenix 3.0]
92
93This was the first official release of Phoenix as first class Boost citizen. As a
94consequence of the review of Phoenix V2 the internals got completely rewritten.
95Therefore the internal extension mechanism is different.
96
97* composite<...>, as_composite<...> and compose are gone and have been replaced.
98  For an in depth discussion see the section [link phoenix.inside Inside Phoenix]
99* [link phoenix.modules.function] phoenix::function now supports function objects
100  that implement the __boost_result_of__ protocol. *This is a breaking change*
101
102  [/as well as the old return type
103  deduction protocol. The same is true for [link phoenix.modules.bind Bind].]
104* Boilerplate macros to easily adapt already existing functions and function
105  objects
106* [link phoenix.modules.bind Bind] is not completely compatible with Boost.Bind. The limitations will be documented as soon as possible.
