題目: Re: [Libbitcoin] Visual Studio Builds
Thanks for this epic work Eric. I use C++11, but what features of C++14
am I using?

For portability I should probably avoid direct use of madvise() and
instead have an "inline" replacement which does nothing on Windows:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1201168/what-is-fadvise-madvise-equivalent-on-windows

Anything more seems complicated based on that post but it would get
functionality operating and we could recommend Linux for deployment setups.

I plan to rearchitect and remodularise the blockchain component in
libbitcoin. Before I had this idea of a generic blockchain interface for
multiple backend drivers but now I'm dropping that idea in favour of a
blockchain interface optimised for a single backend with the possibility
to add others. This will enable better code modularisation and are my
steps to a new highly optimised + performant blockchain architecture.

I'll be splitting the repos soon too. Just waiting until we've reached a
kinda stable plateau for DarkWallet before I start swinging the wrecking
ball :)
