I was searching for such a switch but assumed it would be in regex_match. John W.

Searching through a multi_array[_ref] using STL algorithms
by Sohail Somani 25 May '05

25 May '05

Hi, I would like to do the following: multi_array<double,2> a(boost::extents [ extent_range(1,361)] [ extent_range(1,3)]); ... multi_array<double,2>::iterator i = std::find(a.begin(),a.end(),_1[2]==50.); That is, I want to find the row where the second column is 50. Since lambda can't be used like this, how would you propose I do this in a syntactically concise manner? Thanks Sohail

regex_match problem
by Wilkinson, John 25 May '05

25 May '05

I am trying to use regex to parse NMEA messages. I am new to regex and regular expressions in general, and am having problems getting regex_match to do what I want. The code below demonstrates the problem. I was hoping it would return: 1 1.2,3.4 2 1.2 3 3.4 instead it returns: 1 1.2,3.4 2 1.2 3 1.2 4 5 6 1.2 7 3.4 8 3.4 9 10 11 3.4 thanks John W. const string float_regex = "([+-]?(([\\d]+\\.?)|(\\.[\\d]+)|([\\d]+\\.[\\d]+))){0,1}"; const regex e( float_regex + "," + float_regex ); string str = "1.2,3.4"; smatch match; bool result = regex_match( str, match, e ); if ( result ) { for( int i = 0; i < match.size(); ++i ) { cout << i+1 << " " << match[i] << endl; } }

CVS directories in tarballs
by Emre Turkay 25 May '05

25 May '05

Hi Folks, Why are the CVS directories are excluded from the tarball? I think it would be useful to distribute them with anonymous cvs access settings because - someone might want to get the boost library but particularly interested in the latest additions of one specific library, - one could see what is new in a particular directory/file with a "cvs diff", - and it encourages bug-fixing. Thanks, emre

std::queue serialization
by beastmasterT 25 May '05

25 May '05

I am using the serialization library, and I need an interface to the std::queue class. Has anyone done this before? If I need to do it by hand, I could use a bit of guidance. I've tried to modify the deque.hpp provided, but without success. Thanks, Kyle

What about something like: #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <algorithm> using namespace std; template <class A> struct caller { static void callme(A * d) { delete d; } }; template <class A,class caller> struct l00lz { A * p_; l00lz(A * p):p_(p) { caller::callme(p_); } }; int main() { int * a = new int(5); l00lz<int,caller<int> > b(a); return 0; } AFAIK, it wouldn't affect the speed nor memory footprint

Just can't get started with boost testing framework
by Dave Harrison 24 May '05

24 May '05

Hi guys, I'm new to using Boost, and I'm hitting my head against what I'm pretty sure is a linking / inclusion problem. I'm trying to use the library to test code I'm writing, but I don't want to have to install the libraries onto the machine I'm compiling on (I just want a way I can have them in my code directory and include them from there). I've tried using both the unit_test_framework.hpp inclusion method, as well as linking against the built binary library, but I essentially keep hitting this problem : > g++ unit_test_example1.cpp unit_test_example1.cpp:10:55: error: boost/test/included/unit_test_framework.hpp: No such file or directory the only line in unit_test_example1.cpp is : #include <boost/test/included/unit_test_framework.hpp> In my code dir I've copied across the boost/test dir from the unzipped tar ball. Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers Dave
