Please do not require boost.  Im fine with c++11 but boost would most
likely increase the binary size by a lot which is something that mobile
devs like myself cannot afford

Hi guys.<br>
<br>
I&#39;m thinking about making changes that requires at least one of C++11 or<br>
Boost Smart Pointers to TagLib 2.0.<br>
<br>
Currently, TagLib2 has self-implemented smart pointers when neither<br>
std::shared_ptr nor boost::shared_ptr is available. I will remove it to<br>
make TagLib more robust (and hopefully more efficient) by leaving all<br>
the atomic operations for reference counting to the standard library or<br>
Boost, but it also means to abandon some old compilers that Boost<br>
doesn&#39;t support.<br>
<br>
So I&#39;d like to ask you what kind of compilers are you using to build<br>
TagLib. Is somebody using the compilers which are not supported by<br>
Boost?<br>
<br>
This change only affects the users who builds TagLib themselves. It<br>
doesn&#39;t affect the people who uses TagLib as a package.<br>
<br>
Kageyu.<br>
