Description
This book follows a cookbook approach, with detailed and practical recipes that use Boost libraries.This book is great for developers new to Boost, and who are looking to improve their knowledge of Boost and see some undocumented details or tricks. It's assumed that you will have some experience in C++ already, as well being familiar with the basics of STL. A few chapters will require some previous knowledge of multithreading and networking. You are expected to have at least one good C++ compiler and compiled version of Boost (1.53.0 or later is recommended), which will be used during the exercises within this book.

Antony Polukhin was born in Russia. As a child, he could speak the Russian and Hungarian
languages and learned English at school. Since his school days, he was participating in different
mathematics, physics, and chemistry competitions and winning them.
He was accepted into University twice: once for taking part in a city mathematics competition
and again for gaining high score in an internal Universities mathematics and physics
challenge. In his university life, there was not a year when he did not participate in an exam:
he gained 'A's in all disciplines by writing highly diffi cult programs for each teacher. He met
his future wife in university and graduated with honors.For more than three years, he worked in a VoIP company developing business logic for a
commercial alternative to Asterisc. During those days he started contributing to Boost and
became a maintainer of the Boost.LexicalCast library. He also started making translations
to Russian for Ubuntu Linux at that time.Today, he develops a query engine for graph-oriented databases and continues to contribute
to the open source. You may fi nd his code in Boost libraries such as Any, LexicalCast,
TypeTraits, Variant, and others.He has been happily married for a year now.
