(issue migrated from grogers0/CppQuickCheck)
We already have C++11 as a requirement. Some aspects, which are currently implemented via Boost, could now be replaced. For instance:
- Random number generators
- boost::tuple
- boost::bind
- boost::function
For now, I would avoid upgrading to C++14 unless there is a significant need. However, starting to gradually migrate straightforward parts (currently implemented with Boost) to C++11 should simplify the maintenance in the long run.
From what I see, it would eliminate the need for Boost. Although a dependency to Boost is not really harmful, we should avoid it if all functionality that we are using comes now with C++11.
