c++.announce - STLSoft 1.8.3 beta 4

Download from http://stlsoft.org/downloads.html#stlsoft_1_8_3b4

Diffs as follows at end of message (and in release notes).

Noteworthy changes:

 - UNIXSTL's filesystem_traits has new fstat(), open(), close() and 
get_file_size() methods
 - UNIXSTL's readdir_sequence has the BREAKING CHANGE of value_type being
   redefined from struct dirent const * to char const *. To get the old
behaviour, 
define
   UNIXSTL_READDIR_SEQUENCE_OLD_VALUE_TYPE

 There are also two new classes:

 - WinSTL's memory_mapped_file
 - UNIXSTL's memory_mapped_file

And a whole new sub-project, PlatformSTL, which provides platform
abstraction for structurally conformant UNIXSTL and WinSTL components. For 
example,

    #include <platformstl/memory_mapped_file.hpp>

will introduce either unixstl::memory_mapped_file or winstl::memory_mapped_file 
into
the platformstl namespace. All PlatformSTL headers include 
<platformstl/platformstl.hpp>,
which will detect either UNIX (unix) or Win32 (WIN32) compilation, and define
the
corresponding symbol PLATFORMSTL_OS_IS_UNIX or PLATFORMSTL_OS_IS_WIN32.

Note: PlatformSTL only contains mappings between components from the two
operating
systems that are structurally conformant. Examples are file_path_buffer, 
process_mutex,
pipe, etc. Although the conformance is not necessarily 100% in all cases, it is 
high in all cases.
For components where structural conformance is low, they are not included in 
PlatformSTL, and
you'll have to use them 'manually', via direct inclusion of the winstl or
unixstl 
headers, and
explicit pre-processor discrimination. This is, of course, deliberate.
PlatformSTL 
promises
nothing it cannot deliver.
