[interprocess] Determine size of managed_shared_memory
by Kai Benndorf 12 Oct '19

12 Oct '19

Hi all, I want to create a managed_shared_memory in exactly the size I needed. Therefore I do something like this: size = sizeof( common_managed_shared_memory ); size += sizeof( MyClassInSharedMem ); managed_shared_memory segment(create_only, "name", size ); MyClassInSharedMem allocates itself some memory by segment->allocate(). I added this also to the size, but get a boost::interprocess::bad_alloc exception on allocating this additional memory. Are there some magic bytes I forgot to add? Many thanks in advance Kai

[statechart] Passing parameters from event to State Local Storage
by Christophe Bourez 16 Nov '16

16 Nov '16

I need to maintain a parameter into the state local storage. This parameter is initially contained in the event that causes the transition to the target state. I give hereafter a small illustrative example. typename sc = boost::statechart; class EvTest : public sc::event<EvTest> { public: EvTest(std::size_t val) : value(val) {} std::size_t getValue() const { return this->value; } private: std::size_t value; }; class MyStateMachine; class StSource; class StTarget; class StSource : public sc::simple_state<StSource, MyStateMachine> { public: typedef sc::custom_reaction<EvTest> reactions; sc::result react(const EvTest &event) { // How to pass event.getValue() to the target state ? transit<StTarget>(); } }; class StTarget : public sc::simple_state<StTarget, MyStateMachine> { public: StTarget(std::size_t val) : val(value) {} private: std::size_t value; }; Thanks, Christophe

Statechart serialization
by mbrodeur65 04 Mar '15

04 Mar '15

Hi, I'm looking for a solution to serialize boost::statechart objects. I'm aware that this feature is on the statechart library todo list but was wondering if there are any workaround to achieve this with the latest boost release (1.34) ? thanks for your help ! mbrodeur65 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Statechart-serialization-tf4131326.html#a11749139 Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Statechart] How to decide between post_event and process_event atrun time ?
by Philippe DAVID 22 Jul '14

22 Jul '14

Hi, I have a method in which I want to post/process an event. The thing is, this method can be called from outside the state machine (so I need to call process_event), or indirectly by a reaction of the state machine (in this case I must call post_event since process_event is not reentrant). I don't want to write 2 distinct methods to do this (one that calls post, and the other process), I would much rather prefer adding a 'if' in my method that tells me if I have to call process_event or post_event (if I'm being called indirectly by the state machine or not). Is there a way to do this with statechart ? regards, Philippe

[asio] resolver::cancel() problem
by Matthew Edwards 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

In my application (and a separate test program) it seems as though the cancel() function on the resolver does not work as intended. For async resolves, the cancel functionality should abort them immediately and pass an 'operation aborted' error code to the callback handler. In my tests, I will resolve an invalid domain (this causes the resolve to take a few seconds, to demonstrate the problem), sleep for 100ms, then call cancel on the resolver object. No cancelling actually occurs, and the callback is simply triggered after a few seconds with a "No host found" error code, not the expected operation aborted. Has anyone experienced this before, or know how I might be using the resolver incorrectly?

[BGL] Having a cost function as weight map
by Maxime van Noppen 06 Sep '13

06 Sep '13

Hi, I can't find how to do this pretty basic thing : having a function instead of a field to compute the cost of edges for various path finding algorithms. I couldn't find the answer in the documentation and Google was of no help. Did I miss something obvious ? Example : ------------------- #include <boost/graph/dijkstra_shortest_paths.hpp> #include <boost/graph/graph_traits.hpp> #include <boost/graph/adjacency_list.hpp> struct my_edge { double cost() const { return cost_ * 2; } double cost_; }; struct my_node { }; int main() { typedef boost::adjacency_list< boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::directedS, my_node, my_edge > graph_t; typedef boost::graph_traits<graph_t>::vertex_descriptor vertex_t; graph_t graph; vertex_t v /*= ... */; using boost::weight_map; // Works : boost::dijkstra_shortest_paths(graph, v, weight_map(boost::get(&my_edge::cost_, graph))); // Doesn't compile : //boost::dijkstra_shortest_paths(graph, v, // weight_map(boost::get(&my_edge::cost, graph))); } ------------------- Thanks ! -- Maxime

can't get first example in boost tutorial to work
by 7stud 11 Mar '13

11 Mar '13

I'm trying to install boost on mac osx 10.4.7. I followed the tutorial "Getting Started on Unix Variants" found here: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/ more/getting_started/unix-variants.html Following the instructions in the tutorial, I installed boost in /usr/local as instructed, so my directory structure is: /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost But when I run the first example in the tutorial: #include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <iterator> #include <algorithm> int main() { using namespace boost::lambda; typedef std::istream_iterator<int> in; std::for_each(in(std::cin), in(), std::cout << (_1 * 3) << " " ); } I get the error(among others): error: boost/lambda/lambda.hpp: No such file or directory If I change the include path to: #include </user/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp> I get the error(among others): error: boost/lambda/core.hpp: No such file or directory But core.hpp is in the lambda directory: /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda$ ls algorithm.hpp control_structures.hpp lambda.hpp bind.hpp core.hpp loops.hpp casts.hpp detail numeric.hpp closures.hpp exceptions.hpp switch.hpp construct.hpp if.hpp I'm using the Xcode 2.4 IDE to run my C++ programs. I also tried to execute the program from the command line with the original include path: #include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp> but I get the same error: ~/2testing/dir1$ g++ prog1.cpp prog1.cpp:1:35: error: boost/lambda/lambda.hpp: No such file or directory prog1.cpp: In function 'int main()': prog1.cpp:8: error: 'boost' has not been declared prog1.cpp:8: error: expected namespace-name before ';' token prog1.cpp:8: error: '<type error>' is not a namespace prog1.cpp:11: error: '_1' was not declared in this scope I get the same errors again with the full include path: #include </user/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp> $ g++ prog1.cpp In file included from prog1.cpp:1: /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:14:33: error: boost/lambda/core.hpp: No such file or directory /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:21:52: error: boost/lambda/detail/operator_actions.hpp: No such file or directory /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:22:61: error: boost/lambda/detail/operator_lambda_func_base.hpp: No such file or directory /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:23:63: error: boost/lambda/detail/operator_return_type_traits.hpp: No such file or directory /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:26:45: error: boost/lambda/detail/operators.hpp: No such file or directory /usr/local/boost_1_34_1/boost/lambda/lambda.hpp:30:46: error: boost/lambda/detail/member_ptr.hpp: No such file or directory prog1.cpp: In function 'int main()': prog1.cpp:8: error: 'boost' has not been declared prog1.cpp:8: error: expected namespace-name before ';' token prog1.cpp:8: error: '<type error>' is not a namespace prog1.cpp:11: error: '_1' was not declared in this scope What path should I be using? Or, should I set an environment variable somewhere?

[multi_array] operator= requires resize - why?
by Markus Werle 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

Hi! IMHO the behaviour of operator= for multi_array is a little bit broken. A lot of preconditions required: template <typename ConstMultiArray> multi_array_ref& operator=(const ConstMultiArray& other) { [...] // make sure the dimensions agree assert(other.num_dimensions() == this->num_dimensions()); assert(std::equal(other.shape(),other.shape()+this->num_dimensions(), this->shape())); Besides the fact that I get mad about asserts instead of exceptions (please change this to a way users may choose) why do we have such an odd behaviour here? >From page 1, line 3 of the docs I cite: "The interface design is in line with the precedent set by the C++ Standard Library containers" - this is not true for operator=, since std::<container>::operator= works fine for me all the time _without_ any resize. Could we please change the behaviour of multi_array::operator= to take care of resize where in need to? IMHO operator= should result in a true copy ignoring previous state. Markus

MSVC Visualizers Update
by Filip Konvička 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hi all, I've just updated the Boost visualizers wiki page at https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/DebuggerVisualizers I updated the visualizer for Boost.MultiIndex, which did not work since Boost 1.35. I also added new visualizers for Boost.DateTime (ptime and time_duration) and a simple boost::shared_ptr visualizer. The visualizers are available for checkout via SVN at https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost_docs/subprojects/DebuggerVisu… Cheers, Filip
