I just tried to include adjacency_matrix.hpp and now I don't get errors about those functions anymore. It's strange to have to inclue this header in a template library that doesn't explicitly deal with any concrete implementations of graph concepts. In fact, I don't need to include adjacency_list.hpp for it to work with adjacency_list. I just need to include graph_concepts.hpp and graph_traits.hpp. Anyway, I'm still getting lots of errors in a code that perfectly compiles and works with adjacency lists. If anybody is interested, I can send the listing of compiler errors. Thanks again, Juan

ASIO - Using IO service from main program in a .so loaded with dlopen, dlsym, etc.
by J.W.F. Thirion 29 Aug '09

29 Aug '09

Dear Community, I've got an application that loads a .so using dlopen, dlsym, etc. It also starts up an IO service pool and manages them. The application implements a socket server, that starts a thread for each incoming connection. Inside each of the threads started, a .so function is called based on information received on the socket. Inside the function of the .so, I want to connect to a remote server using the IO service in the main program (that called the dlopen, etc.). It seems, however, that if I use an IO service not created inside the .so, the handle_connect never gets called by ASIO. Is anyone aware of this problem. I suppose I'm just doing something stupid w.r.t. shared object usage (maybe permissions, etc.). Or is the ASIO library not initialised inside the DLL? When I create an IO service pool inside the .so, everything works, but obviously this is not ideal as the pool starts threads that execute the run() method on the io service. Interesting thing is that I can actually pass a session object (from the socket server accept operation) from my main program to the .so function and have messages read and written on the socket. But when I try and create a new connection using the session's IO service (e.g. from a sock.get_io_service() call), then I never get the handle_connect. I've even tried: #pragma GCC visibility push(default) #include <boost/asio.hpp> #include <boost/bind.hpp> #include <boost/thread.hpp> #pragma GCC visibility pop around the boost includes, but no luck. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Derik Thirion

implementing a new Range
by Alex Flint 29 Aug '09

29 Aug '09

Hi there, I'm using a math library that provides a Vector class, but it does not have begin() or end() method, or any other normal container methods. I would like to pass it to functions that take a Range object as a parameter. How can I do this? Cheers, Alex

pkg-config and FreeBSD
by Roman Shmelev 29 Aug '09

29 Aug '09

Hi! I've downloaded boost 1.38 from the official site and successfully build it. I was able to compile the program that uses regexes. OS is FreeBSD 7.2. gcc is 4.2.1. The question is: how can I do something like this: pkg-config --libs boost-regex I'm new to FreeBSD, so I guess I really miss something basic. Googling for subject gave me a lot but not instructions how to do what I want. Thank you

[BGL] possible Bug in property handling
by Ralf Goertz 29 Aug '09

29 Aug '09

Hi, I'm new to BGL (and generic programming) so this may well not be a bug but I don't know how this could be intended. Consider the following program: #include <string> #include <iostream> #include <boost/graph/graph_traits.hpp> #include <boost/graph/properties.hpp> #include <boost/graph/adjacency_list.hpp> using namespace boost; typedef property<vertex_name_t, std::string> VertexProp; //this crashes typedef adjacency_list < vecS, vecS, undirectedS,VertexProp, no_property > graph_t; //this doesn't //typedef adjacency_list < vecS, listS, undirectedS,VertexProp, no_property > graph_t; typedef graph_traits < graph_t >::vertex_descriptor vertex_descriptor; typedef property_map<graph_t, vertex_name_t>::type id_name_map_t; typedef graph_traits<graph_t>::vertex_iterator vi_t; std::pair<vi_t,vi_t> vi; int main(){ graph_t g; vertex_descriptor vd; id_name_map_t name_map; vd=add_vertex(g); put(name_map,vd,"foo"); for (vi=vertices(g); vi.first!=vi.second;++vi.first) { std::cout<<get(name_map,*vi.first)<<std::endl; } return EXIT_SUCCESS; } From what I read in the BGL book the storage type of the edges shouldn't matter. But here using vecS gives a segfault whereas listS works fine. This is the backtrace of a gdb session: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. #0 0x00007ffff79316e6 in std::string::assign(char const*, unsigned long) () from /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #1 0x00000000004016ef in boost::put<boost::vec_adj_list_vertex_property_map<boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::no_property, boost::listS>, boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::no_property, boost::listS>*, std::string, std::string&, boost::vertex_name_t>, std::string&, unsigned long, char [4]> ( pa=@0x7fffffffdcc0, k=0, v=@0x403693) at /usr/include/boost/property_map.hpp:321 #2 0x0000000000400ee8 in main () at bug.cc:26 Version information boost-devel 1.39.0 $: g++ -v Using built-in specs.

boost::asio::io_service and posix message queues
by Sergio Martinez 28 Aug '09

28 Aug '09

I'm working on a project where we want a single thread to asynchronously interact with posix message queues, TCP sockets and drivers. From what I've read, boost::asio::io_service provides a common framework dealing with asynchronous IO. It looks like there's a asio library for TCP and posix::stream_descriptor could be used for interacting with a driver file descriptor. What I don't see is support for posix message queues. The io_service documentation states the following: "The io_service class also includes facilities intended for developers of custom asynchronous services.". I was thinking of adding a custom service for posix message queues. Has anyone already done this? Is there any fundamental reason why it could not be done? (i.e. message queues are not byte streams, etc.) Thanks, Sergio

[proto] I'm lost
by Mail Delivery System 28 Aug '09

28 Aug '09

I need a transform property_b that evaluates another transform property_a and returns what property_a returns+1. Simple enough, here's what I do: struct property_a : proto::or_< proto::when< proto::terminal<_>, mpl::int_<42>()> > {}; struct property_b : proto::or_ < proto::when< _, mpl::next<property_a(_) >() > > {}; The complete file is attached at the end of this message as "Working example". But when I move to my real application (of which I attach a very condensed version as "Non-working example") I cannot manage to make it compile. The code in #ifdef BUG...#endif gives an error, the #else branch doesn't (but doesn't compute what I need, which makes the fact it compiles secondary). I cannot see differences, other than my terminals now being in their own domain.
