RE: [Boost-Users] [date_time] library binaries for VC7.1? && Comm on lib placement
by Administrator 18 Aug '03

18 Aug '03

Dan, The date_time.lib library is a static lib. The built date_time.dll actually has no exports in it, so for VC purposes is useless. I would say don't worry about it, and just use the static lib. On a side note, has anyone been working on placing built items into a common directory, say <boost_top_dir>/lib? If not, I have a patch that should help alot.

Type Traits
by Hossein Haeri 18 Aug '03

18 Aug '03

Hi friends, I'm looking for some stuff like the Loki::TypeTraits. I presume that there should be some similar ones in the boost repository. If I'm right, please tell me where they are. Thanks, --Hossein __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com

uClibc and Boost
by codeazure 18 Aug '03

18 Aug '03

Has anyone had success using Boost with the uClibc libraries? In particular, have you got Boost.Python to work? I am using the getting_started1.cpp example provided with Boost. I am using Boost 1.30.0, uClibc 0.9.20 and Python 2.2.3. Note that uClibc does not currently support a dlopen() called library calling a dlopen(). I have found that as long as the library is loaded with Python, I can get it to work. I am currently using the SSL version of the socket module, which is using SSL libraries linked against Python. I have tried 2 techniques so far, but both result in core dumps. 1. Compile Python against uClibc and force linking with libboost_python.so 2. Compile Pyhton against uClibc only. Build Boost application by linking against libboost_python.a so no external library is needed. It may be that the 2 libraries are simply not compatible at this stage. Does anyone have any ideas? David Abrahams has suggested low level debugging to work out what is causing the core dump, but if the problem lies deep within uClibc, then I have a problem. Regards, Jeff Gray

Variant library or alternative suggestion
by vivek_arora 17 Aug '03

Whats is the status of the variant library which was supposed to have been approved for inclusion? I was unable to compile the code submitted for review. Are there any alternative ways/libraries for representing typesafe unions ? thanks -Vivek Arora

newbie metaprogramming question
by Istvan Buki 17 Aug '03

17 Aug '03

Hello Boost experts, I'm starting learning about template metaprogramming and I discovered that Boost provide several libraries in that area. I tried to see if those libraries could be used for a piece of code I have in my mind but I have a hard time figuring out how to start with it. I don't know if it is because I try to apply metaprogramming techniques in a use case where they doesn't fit or because of my lack of experience with these tools. I'm posting my use case here to get some help and advice about it. In a library I provide two classes: 1) An abstract base class (let's call it Base) from which user will derive their own classes. 2) A manager class responsible for manipulating instances of classes derived from Base. The user, in his application, create an an arbitrary number of classes derived from Base. Let's call them A, B and C for example. He create a typelist containing all those classes and passes it as a parameter to the manager class: typedef boost::mpl::list< A, B, C > my_types ; typedef Manager< my_types> my_manager ; When an instance of my_manager is created I would like to automatically create one instance of each type present in the typelist and these instances should be stored in a container where I could access them later. Something like the following: template < class Typelist > class Manager { public: Manager( void ) ; // ..... private: std::vector< Base * > container_ ; // .... } ; template < class Typelist > Manager< Typelist >::Manager( void ) { // This is not C++, it is pseudo-code that shows what I would // like to achieve. FOR EACH Typelist item i DO Base *b = new Typelist[i] container_.push_back( b ) ; END } So, at compile-time, some code should be generated to do what I wrote in pseudo-code in the constructor of Manager. Does this make any sense ? And if it is, could someone help me transform transform the pseudo-code in the constructor of manager to real code ? Thanks for any help you could provide, Istvan

Errors building boost w/ VC++ 6.0 sp5

I downloaded boost_1_30_0.zip, unpacked the zip file, cd'ed into boost_1_30_0, and ran "bjam "-sTOOLS=msvc". Most of the library seemd to compile fine (Python was skipped since I didn't have it installed). Bjam failed to update 12 targets, skipped 12 targets (the same 12 that failed?), and updated 452 targets.

Graph component question
by Stefan Slapeta 15 Aug '03

15 Aug '03

Hi all, finding edges of cycles in a directed graph is a solved problem and done by the strong_components algorithm. Is there also any a good solution for finding the path (= the exact sequence of vertices) that encloses a strong component? (Note that in a strong component there can be also smaller subcycles that are not of interest.) With other words: I want to find the way through a strong component that visits all its edges. Thanks in advance! Stefan

Using shared_ptr<> with boost::lamda
by limaxtt 15 Aug '03

15 Aug '03

shared_ptr<> can't be easily used in lambda expressions, because there is no operator->* defined. So, there are two problems in two different libraries: 1) operator->* needs to be added to Smart Pointers library. It can be easily done for data-members, but not for methods, since it includes return type deduction from template parameters. So there is another problem: 2) boost::function_traits<> from Type Traits library (result_type particulary) does not work for class methods.

RE: [Boost-Users] Re: Using Boost as a Library Dependency
by Administrator 14 Aug '03

14 Aug '03

Jason, Speaking as someone who downloads and uses lots of open-source libraries, I expect that if another library is required, it will be stated in the documentation, and that it is up to me, the library user, to ensure that paths are correctly set up for my compiler. Just don't forget to include the website where I can download the required libraries. There should be no need to modify any of your (the developer's) library files in order for it to work. Compiler include paths are very easy to set up, both on Unix, where you would use something like autoconf to help set everything up, and on Windows, where Visual Studio has a simple directory include dialog box to type into. Again, you (the developer) should only need to state that the library requires another library(i.e. Boost), and me (the user) should be able to deal with it. If I can't, I (the user) actually need to RTFM about my compiler.

[date_time] library binaries for VC7.1?
by Dan Muller 14 Aug '03

14 Aug '03

I've been using boost for a while, but now for the first time I'm using a component that isn't entirely header-based, namely date_time in boost 1.30.0. After building boost for VC7.1, I find a .lib file in boost_1_30_0\libs\date_time\build\bin\libboost_date_time.lib\msvc\debug \runtime-link-dynamic and a .dll in boost_1_30_0\libs\date_time\build \bin\boost_date_time.dll\msvc\debug\runtime-link-dynamic. There are a couple of things that I don't understand about these files. Is the .lib file supposed to be the import library for the .dll? Linking against the .lib file hasn't produced any import references in my applications. Perhaps I'm just not hitting any out-of-line functionality, but it sure seems like the .lib file is a static library rather than an import library. Also, running DUMPBIN /EXPORTS on the .dll file shows no exported symbols related to date_time classes, as far as I can see. It really looks like it's exporting a bunch of stuff related to the standard C++ library, which makes no sense to me. Can anyone clear up my confusion? -- Dan Muller "So that's what an invisible barrier looks like!" (Time Bandits)

Using Boost as a Library Dependency
by Jason Winnebeck 14 Aug '03

14 Aug '03

I recently decided to refactor my library's API using the benefits given by boost::shared_ptr, so this now means my library uses boost. I'm trying to figure out how my installation process should go. Since I'm only using shared_ptr I've trimmed down a custom boost version that is only a few hundred k (rather than 10 megs) of just the files that I use. I've put the minimum boost files in my own directory structure so that my library can compile on its own. But when using the library, then what would the user do? Ideally I could have the installer for my library by copy the files to the compiler's include directory, but that's not particularly nice, espically since Boost is quite a popular library, and I don't want to litter up their include directory and most espically not overwrite any installation of Boost they have placed there. One thing that might work, if compilers support include directory "overrides" is if the user is using the full Boost library, to place its -I line before (or after?) the -I for my library, so that they can see my includes, but any boost includes will be "overridden" by their full version of Boost. But this leads to another question: If I compile my library with Boost x but the user has Boost y installed when he links with my library (I DO pass shared_ptr back and forth between user code, so it's not just used internally), what will happen? The shared_ptr interface seems to be oft changing, and so right now my code would only compile for Boost 1.30 (or later? Speaking of that, anyone know why there are no files listed for download for Boost 1.30.1 but it was announced a week ago?). I'm new to these things so I appreciate any feedback or answers you have. The library is just an open-source library I'm writing on my own free time, and I don't have a lot of experience from using/installing commercial C++ libraries to draw upon. Jason Winnebeck

Getting std::iterator_category from boost iterator adaptor
by Raoul Gough 13 Aug '03

13 Aug '03

I have a situation where I want to specialize a class template on the basis of iterator_category, but I don't see how to get one of the standard categories when passed a boost iterator adapter. Currently, std::iterator_traits<MyIter>::iterator_category is giving me: boost::iterator_tag<boost::writable_lvalue_iterator_tag , boost::random_access_traversal_tag> I need random_access_iterator_tag for the right specialization to happen. Is there any way to get the *standard* iterator category from a boost iterator? MyIter is boost::indirect_iterator<std::vector<int *>::iterator> compiler is gcc 3.2.3 (mingw special 20030504-1) BTW, isn't this non-standard iterator_category bound to cause problems? e.g. if I use std::distance (MyIter(), MyIter()), how does the compiler know that it should use the std::random_access_iterator_tag specialization of std::distance? -- Raoul Gough "Let there be one measure for wine throughout our kingdom, and one measure for ale, and one measure for corn" - Magna Carta

[Spirit] file_iterator confusion
by Angus Leeming 13 Aug '03

13 Aug '03

Hello. I am just beginning to look at the spirit library, but am confused by the way file_iterator is working. Could anyone explain to me why this works: typedef spirit::file_iterator <char_t> iterator_t; iterator_t first(argv[1]); // check first is valid ... iterator_t last = first.make_end(); but this doesn't: typedef spirit::file_iterator <char_t> iterator_t; iterator_t first; iterator_t last; boost::tie(first, last) = open_file(argv[1]); // check first is valid ... Both codes compile, but only the first method results in the file being read. In the second instance, the correct number of chars are read, but only the first char is output (multiple times). The open_file function is simply: std::pair<iterator_t, iterator_t> open_file(char const * name) { iterator_t first(name); iterator_t last = first ? first.make_end() : iterator_t(); return std::make_pair(first, last); } Minimal sample code attached. My tests have been with boost 1.30.1. Changing the line #define FAILURE_MODE 1 toggles between the two cases. Best regards, Angus [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Using BGL Graphviz with MSVC7

Is there documentation anywhere that explains how to build and link graphviz for MSVC .NET for use with the BOOST graph library?

I am getting a compile error: c:\boost_1_30_0\boost\tuple\detail\tuple_basic_no_partial_spec.hpp(83): error C2679: binary '=' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'const boost::detail::adj_list_gen<Graph,VertexListS,OutEdgeListS,DirectedS,VertexP roperty,EdgeProperty,GraphProperty,EdgeListS>::config::edge_iterator' (or there is no acceptable conversion) with [ Graph=boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS,boost::vecS,boost::directedS,boost:: no_property,boost::property<boost::edge_weight_t,int,boost::no_property>,boo st::no_property,boost::listS>, VertexListS=boost::vecS, OutEdgeListS=boost::vecS, DirectedS=boost::directedS, VertexProperty=boost::no_property, EdgeProperty=boost::property<boost::edge_weight_t,int,boost::no_property>, GraphProperty=boost::no_property, EdgeListS=boost::listS ] I think this error is due to the fact that MSVC does not support partial template specialization. Also, when I comment out all of the code except for the first 3 lines of the main, I get the error : dijkstra_link_state_routing error result returned from 'cl.exe' ("dijkstra_link_state_routing" is the name of the solution that contains the file ospf-example.cpp). Any suggestions anyone could offer would be appreciated. Below is the code for ospf-example.cpp. It is the same as the code on the BOOST website.

Hello, All! I can't compile this simple test: --------------------------------------------- #include <boost/tuple/tuple.hpp> #include <iostream> using namespace boost::tuples; using namespace std; int main() { typedef tuple<int, tuple<int, int> > Tuple; Tuple t1(1, make_tuple(1, 1)); Tuple t2(2, make_tuple(2, 2)); if (get<1>(t1) == get<1>(t2)) { cout << "equal"; } else { cout << " not equal"; } return 0; } ----------------------------------------- What am I doing wrong? Compilers: Borland Builder 6 (bcc32.exe 5.6.4) and VC7 With best regards, Konstantin M. Litvinenko aka Dark Angel.

RE: [Boost-Users] boos::bind class member function
by Ioffe, Robert 12 Aug '03

Dirk, The following should not compile: for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(&myclass::print, _1)); since myclass::print actually takes two arguments and the first one is not the std::string, but the object of class myclass. So you should do something like this: myclass foo; for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(&myclass::print, foo, _1)); Have fun, Robert Ioffe -----Original Message----- From: dirk_griffioen [mailto:diddekio@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 3:43 AM To: Boost-Users(a)yahoogroups.com Subject: [Boost-Users] boos::bind class member function Hi, I would like to use a for_each with a class member function. The for_each in myclass::do_print below does not compile. And I simply cant figure it out. I'm using vc7.1. //////////////////////////////// void print2(std::string s) { cout << s << '\n'; } class myclass { public: void print(std::string s); void do_print(); }; void myclass::print(std::string s) { cout << s << '\n'; } void myclass::do_print() { vector<std::string> v; v.push_back("a"); v.push_back("b"); v.push_back("c"); v.push_back("d"); for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(boost::type<void>(), &myclass::print, _1)); } ///////////////////////////////////////// nor will for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(&myclass::print, _1)); for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(print, _1)); whereas for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(print2, _1)); is ok It seems natural to do, but I cant get it.
