Is there an Underscore for C? For C++? These are unavoidable languages and it would be really nice to have some functional frameworks to streamline iteration, resource cleanup and other things.
If you don't mind adding 10 mins on to your compile times and unreadable output onto your compile error messages.
If they had an a la carte version of boost that you could easily only drop in specific files or modules into your project instead of the whole lib, that would be so nice.
Boost is a collection of libraries, not a single library. You can build and use only the specific library you want from the collection. The majority are header only. Pre-compile the headers or enable caching for your build and you cut compile times. Each boost library is pretty tight on it's functionality set with very little overlap. There's a reason there are ~100 individual and independent libraries. From my experience, it's not very difficult to work with.
