Boost thread examples
by imi123_1999 22 May '02

22 May '02

Is there any other site from where we can get the example programs illustrating the usage of boost libraries especially threads. I found the example programs present on boost web site not sufficient to fully understand the concepts. So please tell me from where i can get the further information regarding the usage of boost thread library.

Thread destruction in boost
by giltayar 21 May '02

21 May '02

>From boost:thread documentation, it is clear that deleting a thread does not kill the thread. I very much approve of this. killing a thread is a very "strong" operation. The problem is that there is now no connection between the system thread and the object itself, which (debatably) kills the idiom in C++ connection the object and the resource (I never remember its name). Was the idea of doing a "join()" in the dtor brought up? I.e., the dtor waiting for the thread to finish? I used it in my library, and it was _very_ effective, as I could _know_ that the thread and the object have parallel lifetimes, and it also helped me because it prevented many "thread-leakage" problems. Gil P.S. The question was - "Was the idea of doing a join() in the dtor ever brought up?"

RE: [Boost-Users] boost::lexical_cast string to string problem
by Tom Matelich 21 May '02

21 May '02

I and many others have requested fixes for this for a very long time. Basically, it involves creating class templates to do the actual conversion. It's not the most complicated system, just nobody has done it yet. If you search the boost list archives, you'll see a lot of mail about this. There is no quick solution to your problem though. -----Original Message----- From: Jason Fischl [mailto:yg-boost-users@m.gmane.org] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 5:21 PM To: boost-users(a)yahoogroups.com Subject: [Boost-Users] boost::lexical_cast string to string problem I'm seeing a problem with lexical_cast. The following code when trying to convert from string to string fails when passed an empty string. The library code that is doing this lexical_cast does not and can not know that the input and output types are the same. I believe that this code should not throw. #include <iostream> #include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp> main() { std::string input(""); try { boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(input); } catch (boost::bad_lexical_cast& e) { std::cout << "Failed" << std::endl; } } Info: <http://www.boost.org> Wiki: <http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl> Unsubscribe: <mailto:boost-users-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com> Your use of Yahoo!

random::mersenne_twister ctor and seed() methods
by klapshin 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hello All! I just started using boost/random project, and kind of confused with behavior of random::mersenne_twister constructor and seed method. The thing is that both of them have two flavors -- first accepting DataType, while second is template method accepting Generator. The problem is when I am trying innocent boost::mt19937 rng(999); //and/or rng.seed(999); wrong ctor/seed being invoked and I am getting far from crystal clear error message (term does not evaluate to a function). The problem is quite obvious: 999 is of type int, while DataType by default is unsigned long on my platform, so template version of ctor/seed picks this call, and it is failing since 999 is not a generator. So I have to write something like: boost::mt19937 rng(boost::mt19937::result_type(999)); which is kind of cumbersome. Why generator version of seed is not named differently? Say seed_gen? Don't know what to do with constructor though. PS: I am using boost_1_28_0, and MSVC 6.0. Best regards, Kirill Lapshin.

BLL trouble
by Persson Jonas 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hello, I've just started playing around with BLL and i have some troubles using it with containers of shared_ptr. I have isolated the problem to: void lambdaTest() { using namespace boost::lambda; boost::shared_ptr<int> x(new int(5)); (*_1)(x); } This does not compile with gcc 3.1 on cygwin. If I use plain pointers it works as expected but not for shared_ptr. What am I doing wrong? / Jonas ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ../../cygwin/usr/local/include/g++-v3/bits/stl_iterator_base_types.h: In instantiation

RE: [Boost-Users] Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index
by Siegel, Matthew 20 May '02

Hi Jeremy, Thanks for the quick response. As you may or may not recall from last week, I am having the issue with MSVC++, where I can not put more than one property per edge or vertex when defining the graph, that limits the size of the template expansion. Because of this, I have to use external property maps that I create myself. Therefore I need an edge index map internal to the graph. Currently my workaround is to keep an unsigned integer in my class, that gets incremented until there's a free "slot" for the edge to go into. This is to allow the increment of the unsigned int to roll at maximum value. Here's the way I think it should work. I understand the space issues that most people would be concerned about, however if a property_map of edge_index_t is explicitly given in the list of edge properties when the graph is defined, then the map should be created automatically for me, and if an index is not provided on the add_edge() function, the index is incremented in the same fashion. If I'm explicitly adding the edge_index map to my graph, then the space is of no concern to me. Just a thought . . .thanks again, Matt -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Siek [mailto:jsiek@cs.indiana.edu] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 12:01 PM To: 'Boost-Users(a)yahoogroups.com' Subject: Re: [Boost-Users] Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index Hi Matt, On Mon, 20 May 2002, Siegel, Matthew wrote: > Please correct me if I'm wrong.

That is mostly correct. The vertex_index gets assigned automatically for adjacency_list with VertexList=vecS but not with VertexList=listS.

The reason edge_index is not provided automatically is because it takes up space (whereas the vertex_index is does not), and some users are concerned about space issues. Anyways, one possible solution is to somehow make it possible for you to specify some code to be executed when an edge is added or removed from the graph, and this code would adjust the edge indices, and perhaps the external storage too. But before I get ahead of myself, could you describe how you currently work around this problem, and perhaps how you'd like to see it work?

Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index
by Siegel, Matthew 20 May '02

20 May '02

Hi, Please correct me if I'm wrong. It seems as if a vertex_index gets assigned to a vertex as it's added to the graph automatically. However, this doesn't seem to be the case for the edge_index. Is this correct?? I forsee the following problem. With the graph implemented using a std::vector for both the vertex list and the edge list, if a vertex is removed from the graph the index is corrected for the vertex_descriptor to the new, appropriate index. However, if an edge is removed, the index for the edge_descriptor will not be corrected with the removal of an element in the vector. Also, this causes headaches when using an external property map. The edge index is linked directly to a location in my map. Any solutions for these problems?? Thanks, Matt
