Its first version was a std::deque 35 adaptor. This container was not very effective because of many reallocations 36 when inserting/removing an element. Thomas Wenish did a review of this version 37 and motivated me to create a circular buffer which allocates memory at once 38 when created. 39 </p> 40<p> 41 The second version adapted <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">vector</span></code> 42 but it has been abandoned soon because of limited control over iterator invalidation. 43 The current version is a full-fledged STL compliant container. 44 </p> 45<p> 46 Pavel Vozenilek did a thorough review of this version and came with many good 47 ideas and improvements. 48 </p> 49<p> 50 The idea of the space optimized circular buffer has been introduced by Pavel 51 Vozenilek. 52 </p> 53<p> 54 Also, I would like to thank Howard Hinnant, Nigel Stewart and everyone who 55 participated at the formal review for valuable comments and ideas. 56 </p> 57<p> 58 Paul A. Bristow refactored the documentation in 2013 to use the full power 59 of Quickbook, Doxygen and Autoindexing. 60 </p> 61</div> 62<table xmlns:rev="http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~gregod/boost/tools/doc/revision" width="100%"><tr> 63<td align="left"></td> 64<td align="right"><div class="copyright-footer">Copyright © 2003-2013 Jan Gaspar<p> 65 Distributed under the Boost Software License, Version 1.0.
