boost-users [shared_array] comparing the value.
by chun ping wang 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi I notice boost shared_array compares the pointer address not the pointer themselves. What would be the best way to compare the actual value of boost shared_array. 1.) shared_array<T> a; shared_array<T> b; 1.) return (a.len == b.len && (memcmp(a, b, len) == 0)); or 2.) if (a.len != b.len) return false; for (ptrdiff_t i = 0; i != a.len; ++i) if(a[i] != b[i]) return false; One that works ALL the times.

Building boost::system
by Simon Pickles 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, Since the new update of boost::asio, I need to build boost::system. I built it using bjam in the boost/system/build directory, and it built: boost_system_vc80-gd-1_34_1.lib but my compiler needs: libboost_system-vc80-mt-gd-1_34_1.lib I'm not sure what the difference between the boost and libboost version, but I know the mt is multithreaded.... Can anyone advise? Thanks Si

Boost Problem
by question boost 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, my program makes use of Boost(Code Blocks). The arrangement of my files is the following: 1 in the directory of the source files of my program there is the directory "boost" containing the following directories: "filesystem", "config", "iterator","range","detail", "mpl", "preprocessor", "tools" and the file boost-build.jam. 2 The file that makes use of boost in my project contains the following lines: #include <string> using namespace std; #include "boost\filesystem\path.hpp" #include "boost\filesystem\operations.hpp" using namespace boost::filesystem; At compilation I get the message :"boost/preprocessor/config/config.hpp" no such file or directory and several other similar messages about other files of the same directory and about other files of the "mpl" directory. What goes wrong?

Thread Group fails to run
by Apostolos Apostolidis 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi all. I have developed some code allowing a thread group of 500 threads to run. However, as soon as the 381st thread is spawned, I get the following runtime error : terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::thread_resource_error' what(): boost::thread_resource_error The Boost documentation does not clarify the nature of the error, so I was wondering if anyone can help me out here. The (simple) program code follows. #include <boost/thread/mutex.hpp> #include <boost/thread/thread.hpp> #include <boost/bind.hpp> using namespace std; boost::mutex io_mutex; void foo(int i) { boost::mutex::scoped_lock lock(io_mutex); cout << i << endl; } int main(int argc, char *arvg[]) { boost::thread_group tg; for(int i = 0;i < 500;i++) tg.create_thread(boost::bind(&foo,i)); tg.join_all(); }

Using mpl::remove with template paramter
by spider tong 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi all, I'm trying to use mpl::remove to do some processing with a template parameter, like this template<typename T0, typename T1=null_type, ... typename Tn=null_type> struct my_class { typedef mpl::vector<T0, T1,...Tn> my_vector; typedef mpl::remove<my_vector, null_type>::type my_non_vector; //failed here }; Compiler report that my_vector is not derive from my_class<T0, T1,..Tn>. It seems that 'remove' would test the sequence at once, and my_vector still un_known yet, so it fails, is this guess right? //-------------------------------------------------------------------------- And I've tried this fusion too: teypdef vector<Class1, Class2, null_type, null_type> vec; vec v; fusion::for_each<v, print>; it seems that it iterate 4 times, not 2, even size(vec) return 2. It seems only evaluate will skip null_type, iterate will go through all member, is my guess right? Best Regards Spider

Re: [Boost-users] Request to know about "dynamic expression evaluation"
by Borse, Ganesh 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, You recommended checking the "expression templates". However, expression templates (xpressive) provides the means of parsing the input expressions in to tokens. It does not have the support for evaluating these expressions. --- please correct me if I'm wrong.

The arrangement of a boost program
by question boost 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, 1 My program under Code Blocks makes use of Boost. The arrangement of my files is the following: in the directory of the source files of my program there is the directory "boost" containing the following directories: "filesystem", "config", "iterator","range","detail", "mpl", "preprocessor", "tools" and the file boost-build.jam. 2 The file that makes use of boost in my project contains the following lines: #include <string> using namespace std; #include "boost\filesystem\path.hpp" #include "boost\filesystem\operations.hpp" using namespace boost::filesystem; 3 At compilation I get the message :"boost/preprocessor/config/config.hpp" no such file or directory and several other similar messages about other files of the same directory and about other files of the "mpl" directory. I've followed all the instructions here http://www.boost.org/doc/html/jam/building.html and here http://www.boost.org/doc/html/bbv2/installation.html At end of step 4 of http://www.boost.org/doc/html/bbv2/installation.html, the problem at compilation remains the same.

Compiling 1.34.1 on OpenSUSE 10.3
by Ruediger Berlich 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi there, OpenSUSE 10.3 is still delivered with Boost 1.33.1 . Hence I've downloaded Boost 1.34.1 and tried to compile it. I ran the configure script and then make. The resulting bjam immediately dies with an error: ./tools/jam/src/bin.linuxx86/bjam --user-config=user-config.jam /bin/sh: line 1: 2090 Speicherzugriffsfehler ./tools/jam/src/bin.linuxx86/bjam --user-config=user-config.jam "Speicherzugriffsfehler" means "memory access violation". This is on a Pentium-D dual-core system (4GB main memory) running with a 32-bit Linux kernel 2.6.22, g++ 4.2.1 . Does anyone have experience with this constellation ? Compilation of 1.34 worked fine on OpenSUSE 10.2 . Thanks and best regards, Ruediger

Is their some kind of method to flatten a stl container... example [[1, 4], [a,b, c], [b, [e]] ] becomes [1, 4, a, b, c, b, e]
