i have no idea what "using namespace boost;" after the boost headers are included in "serialize.h"! or how to do it. I feel that every time i get one thing to work something else is broken.
It means you edit the serialize.h file in a text editor, and add the line
using namespace boost;
after the #include lines.
i dont understand when releasing source code like this why is everything needed not included so it actually works?
Because not everyone has the same version or configurations of the necessary libraries and compile tools, and it would be next to impossible to test all possible configurations. This is released free and open source. This means that while it may not work out of the box, you are free to modify it to make it work. This does not mean you can or should expect it to work out of the box with your particular configuration.
we need LONGPOLE
Maybe I'll add long
poll support if I'm incentivized enough to do so.
I have given a significant amount of my time to develop this and release it for anyone to use. A few good words from a few people and a bunch of complaints from others isn't really enough to provide motivation to continue to enhance this.
