Alan has abstracted the standard cpp.al drone jobs into a
generate
function that can be used on all repos, so adding a new compiler only needs to be done once in a central location.generate
will probably be moved to the boost-ci repository eventually.Specific notes about json: gcc 4.8 and 4.9 were using Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty before. When switching those to Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial there are errors. Skipping 4.8 and 4.9 now. You could test locally, or change .drone.star to 'gcc >=4.8' instead of 'gcc >=5.0'. Since Ubuntu 14.04 is nearly obsolete, that operating system should not continue to be used.
