|---|
| 47 | <li>Boost.MultiIndex offers the usual guarantees with respect to |
|---|
| 48 | multithreading code provided by most STL implementations: |
|---|
| 49 | <ol> |
|---|
| 50 | <li>Concurrent access to different containers is safe.</li> |
|---|
| 51 | <li>Concurrent read-only access to the same container is safe.</li> |
|---|
| 52 | </ol> |
|---|
| 53 | In previous versions of the library, the latter guarantee was not properly |
|---|
| 54 | maintained if the <a href="advanced_topics.html#safe_mode">safe |
|---|
| 55 | mode</a> was set. This problem has been fixed now. |
|---|
| 56 | </li> |
|---|
| 57 | <li>Maintenance fixes.</li> |

|---|
| 63 | <p> |
|---|
| 64 | <ul> |
|---|
| 65 | <li>Added <a href="advanced_topics.html#hashed_indices">hashed indices</a>, |
|---|
| 66 | whose interface is based on the specification for unordered associative |
|---|
| 67 | containers by the C++ Standard Library Technical Report (TR1). |
|---|
| 68 | </li> |
|---|
| 69 | <li>Added <a href="advanced_topics.html#serialization">serialization support</a> |
|---|
| 70 | for <a href="../../serialization/index.html">Boost.Serialization</a>. |
|---|
| 71 | </li> |
|---|
| 72 | <li>Destruction of <code>multi_index_container</code>s and <code>clear</code> |
|---|
| 73 | memfuns now perform faster. |
|---|
| 74 | </li> |
|---|
| 75 | <li>Internal changes aimed at reducing the length of symbol names generated |
|---|
| 76 | by the compiler; cuts of up to a 50% can be achieved with respect to the |
|---|
| 77 | Boost 1.32 release. This results in much shorter and more readable error |
|---|
| 78 | messages and has also a beneficial impact on compilers with strict limits on |
|---|
| 79 | symbol name lengths. Additionally, a section on further |
|---|
| 80 | <a href="compiler_specifics.html#symbol_reduction">reduction of symbol name |
|---|
| 81 | lengths</a> has been added. |
|---|
| 82 | </li> |
|---|
| 83 | <li>Restructured some parts of the documentation, new examples.</li> |
|---|
| 84 | <li>Maintenance fixes.</li> |
