[Math/Statistical Distributions+Random] Random number generation
by Marco Guazzone 07 Jan '10

07 Jan '10

Hi all! I'm a "boost newbie" so sorry for too trivial questions. Just trying to use boost for some statistical experiments, involving statistical distribution fitting, quantile generation (for goodness-of-fit tests), random variate generation, and so on. . The "Math/Statistical Distribution" library is great and almost complete. But I'm just curious why the random number generation (provided by the "Random" lib) and this library have not been integrated. For instance, the boost::random::… [View More]

ASIO async_read_until with condition + strand
by Christophe Bourez 07 Jan '10

07 Jan '10

Can someone help with the boost async_read_until with condition ? I need to implement a request/response protocol. * A request cannot be send until the response has been completely read from the server. * Response's length from the server is unknown. The data must be parsed thanks to a parser to understand the content of the buffer. The parser is capable to return a code specifying whether the data is complete, which could require more reading on the socket. I'd like to implement my client … [View More]

[Signals2] How to connect member functions with more than one argument?

[BGL] simple problem: how to detect connections in a dag?
by Olaf Krzikalla 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Hi @boost, we have a rather simple problem here for which we however couldn't find a simple solution in the BGL. Probably because we aren't graph experts. We have a dag and two vertices in this dag. Now we just want to know if these vertices are connected (acrtually we don't need the path), that is if one vertex is in a parent chain of the other. Thanks in advance Olaf Krzikalla

Reducing the size of .obj file which does serialization
by Gokulakannan Somasundaram 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Hi, I have a parent class which has around 200 sub-classes. While serializing the entire hierarchy, i have lot of base class pointers and STLs of base class pointers. From the documentation, i found that if i have to serialize the polymorphic pointers, then i have to do a BOOST_EXPORT of all the relevant subclasses. But after doing that, i find my .obj file to be around 37MB. I am using the text archive in my code. When i tried the polymorphic_text_archive, the size only reduced by 3MB. … [View More]
