Boost.Flyweight
Flyweights are small-sized handle classes granting constant access to shared common data, thus allowing for the management
of large amounts of entities within reasonable memory limits. Boost.Flyweight makes it easy to use this common programming
idiom by providing the class template flyweight<T>, which acts as a drop-in replacement for const T.
Learn about Boost.Flyweight
Install Boost.Flyweight
- Download Boost and you're ready to go (this is a header-only library requiring no building).
- Using Conan 2: In case you don't have it yet, add an entry for Boost in your
conanfile.txt(the example requires at least Boost 1.86):
[requires]
boost/[>=1.86.0]
- If you're not using any compiled Boost library, the following will skip building altogether:
[options]
boost:header_only=True
- Using vcpkg: Execute the command
vcpkg install boost-flyweight
- Using CMake: Boost CMake support infrastructure allows you to use CMake directly to download, build and consume all of Boost or some specific libraries.
