US Govt C++ Deadline – CISA asked for a C++ memory safety roadmap by January 1, 2026. Here's what that could look like for C++ projects:
✓ Sanitizers (ASan, MSan, TSan) in CI
✓ Static analysis on every PR
✓ Fuzz testing for parsing and network code
What's missing?

Boost 1.90.0 is now available in both vcpkg and Conan.
Get it in Conan: go.boost.org/3LFWRq0
Get it in vcpkg: go.boost.org/4pzIK3g
dependency management for your C++ projects, no manual setup required.
#cpp #opensource #boost
Boost 1.90.0 is here! 30+ libraries have been upgraded.
- New OpenMethod lib: open multi-methods in C++17 and later
- Container::deque reimplemented: smaller, faster, more future-proof
- DynamicBitset modernized: C++20 iterators, constexpr, perf
Release notes: go.boost.org/4iLk9Xu
#cpp #boost
Boost.OpenMethod is coming in Boost 1.90!
It gives you open multi‑methods:
- Define f(x, y) as a free function with virtual dispatch
- Add new operations and new types without touching old classes
- Multiple dispatch like in CLOS, Clojure or Julia

If your size isn’t known at compile time, stop forcing std::bitset. Use boost::dynamic_bitset. Resize at runtime, same bitwise ops, modern iterators. Ship the right tool. go.boost.org/3KgRTzb
#cpp #opensource #boost
Make it fit your workload. Pick the backend and block type. Example: small_vector backend for SBO; wider block for fewer ops. Same API, better cache. go.boost.org/4rjtkCw

Boost.Decimal by Matt Borland and Chris Kormanyos has been accepted! Implementation of IEEE 754 and ISO/IEC DTR 24733 Decimal Floating Point numbers. Thx to Review Mgr John Maddock.

Template-heavy C++ compiles slowly because the AST explodes. Matheus Izvekov optimized how Clang represents certain types so the AST builds leaner. Result: 5–7% faster builds measured on stdexec and Chromium. Fewer nodes, fewer indirections → faster compiles.

Real-world: 32.4M ops/sec vs 25.3M (28% lift). Typical benches: 2.5–3x faster than std. Let numbers make the call. go.boost.org/46ZLNvX #cplusplus #opensource #boost
concurrent_flat_map: 2–2.5x ops/sec vs tbb::concurrent_hash_map in skewed workloads. Lock‑free probe; per‑group spinlocks. go.boost.org/4n6xHNL #cpp #opensource #boost
flat_map wins 14–29% across diverse workloads; up to 3.2x fewer comparisons on unsuccessful lookups via overflow‑byte early stop. go.boost.org/4q4vtBv #cplusplus #opensource #boost
Need max performance? Use unordered_flat_map. Need stable refs? unordered_node_map. Multi-threaded? concurrent_*. Ship the right tool, not the default. go.boost.org/4h6Khv8

Boost made a cameo in the final #CppCon keynote.
Thanks to @matt.godbolt.org for the mention, and to the C++ community for keeping Boost strong!

Great libraries, great conference.
Visit the new boost.org
Check out the new Boost. Fewer dependencies, faster build times, modern libraries. We never stopped growing! #cppcon
At #CppCon, we've been showing off some of our latest and greatest! Here's a rundown:
Math - boost.org/libs/math
Redis - boost.org/libs/redis
Bloom - boost.org/libs/bloom
Hash2 - boost.org/libs/hash2
Parser - boost.org/libs/parser
MQTT5 - boost.org/libs/mqtt5
Unordered - boost.org/libs/unordered
Boost.Math: making sure C++ developers never feel like fish out of water (right, Austin?). #CppCon
