Thiruvalluvan M. G. updated AVRO-4095:
--------------------------------------
    Description: 
I have been integrating the AVRO C++ library into our proprietary query engine 
via conan. I have to maintain my own copy of the upstream 
[https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/recipes/libavrocpp/all/conanfile.py]
 to work around the boost dependency. In addition, I'm also working on a brand 
new [Iceberg C++ library|https://github.com/apache/iceberg-cpp] and need to 
integrate with AVRO C++ too. I found that preparing boost dependency requires a 
lot of work. As the AVRO C++ library is already on C++ 17, is it possible to 
get rid of the boost dependency at least in the non-test header and source 
files? It might involves a lot of work. I can do that if this is something that 
worth doing. 

Includes:
 * -boost/optional.hpp-
 * -boost/any.hpp-
 * -boost/tuple/tuple.hpp-
 * -boost/noncopyable.hpp-
 * -boost/blank.hpp-
 * -boost/function.hpp-
 * -boost/shared_ptr.hpp-
 * -boost/static_assert.hpp-
 * -boost/utility.hpp-

 * -boost/random/mersenne_twister.hpp-
 * -boost/algorithm/string.hpp-
 * -boost/algorithm/string/replace.hpp-
 * -boost/program_options.hpp-
 * -boost/iostreams/filter/gzip.hpp-
 * boost/asio/buffer.hpp (won't remove it since it is already optional)
 * boost/crc.hpp
 * boost/iostreams/device/file.hpp
 * boost/iostreams/filter/zlib.hpp
 * boost/iostreams/filtering_stream.hpp
