'How do I upgrade boost progress?

Version 1.71.0 of boost/progress.hpp warns me:

include/boost/timer.hpp:21:98: note: #pragma message: This header is deprecated. 
Use the facilities in <boost/timer/timer.hpp> instead.
BOOST_HEADER_DEPRECATED( "the facilities in <boost/timer/timer.hpp>" )

But when I look in boost/timer.hpp there's no obvious path to upgrade, since there is no boost::progress_display class.

In what way do the Boost folks intend for me to circumnavigate the deprecation of progress.hpp, other than rewriting it?

There's not a good solution today. Your choices are:

  • use an older boost that doesn't have the deprecation warning
  • ignore the warning
  • write a replacement
  • wait for boost 1.72 and use: #include <boost/timer/progress_display.hpp>
