[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

[Interprocess] Communication between x86 and x64 issue
by Toni Neubert 19 Feb '16

19 Feb '16

I want to communicate between different platforms using boost interprocess. I am using vc12 and boost 1.58 on windows 7. My code below is a very simple example, that should work. But it doesn't for communications between different platforms... If I create it in x64 and open in win32, the process stuck at a lock at function try_based_lock in boost/int/sync/detail/common_algorithms.hpp In the other way around: win32 create, x64 open: the process crashes at name_length in segment_manager_helper.hpp while trying to find the name in index (priv_generic_find in segment_manager). #include <iostream> #include <boost/interprocess/managed_shared_memory.hpp> int main() { namespace bip = boost::interprocess; // open in WIN32, create in x64 #ifdef _WIN32 bip::managed_shared_memory msm(bip::open_only, "TestIPC"); #elsif X64 bip::shared_memory_object::remove("TestIPC"); bip::managed_shared_memory msm(bip::create_only, "TestIPC", 4096); msm.construct<uint32_t>("Data")[1](10); #endif // Get Data and print it auto data = msm.find<uint32_t>("Data"); if (data.second == 1) { std::cout << *data.first << std::endl; } std::cin.ignore(); return 0; } Does anybody have experience in this? Thank you in advance!

Include line number in boost logs
by Florian Lindner 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hello, I try to implement that a log entry also logs its line number with boost::log. If any developer of it reads here, please also consider this a wishlist item... I think the best way to add an additional attribute for it core::get()->add_global_attribute( "Line", attributes::mutable_constant<size_t>(0) ); in my logger config that is called once at startup. #define logInfo(methodname, message) \ boost::log::core::get()->get_global_attributes()["Line"].set(__LINE__); \ BOOST_LOG_SEV(_log, boost::log::trivial::severity_level::trace) << message \ Is my idea, but boostlog.cpp:126:5: error: no member named 'set' in 'boost::log::v2_mt_posix::aux::attribute_set_reference_proxy' getting the attribute somehow seems to work, but how can I set the value of the attribute? Thanks! Florian

Noel Belcourt Thanks for the tip Noel, but it sounds like I'll be able to accomplish it using Adam's suggestions (I don't need completely optimal packing density).

[boost] [afio] Formal review of Boost.AFIO
by Ahmed Charles 01 Sep '15

01 Sep '15

The formal review of the Boost.AFIO library starts, August 21st and ends on Monday August 31st. Boost.AFIO provides a portable API implementing synchronous and asynchronous race-free filesystem and scatter-gather file i/o. It requires a minimum of C++ 11. It has minimum dependencies on a Filesystem TS and a Networking TS implementation (e.g. Boost.Filesystem and Boost.ASIO). Backends are provided for the Windows NT kernel and POSIX. The utility of a portable library providing strong concurrent race guarantees about filesystem and file i/o can be seen in its tutorial where a transactional ACID key-value store is built from first principles. Boost.AFIO was brought to Boost as part of GSoC 2013 and Niall Douglas has continued to develop and improve the library since then, generating two internal implementation libraries Boost.APIBind and Boost.Monad which are expected to be separately brought for Boost review in 2016. The documentation can be found here: https://boostgsoc13.github.io/boost.afio/doc/html/afio.html The source code can be found here: https://github.com/BoostGSoC13/boost.afio/tree/boost-peer-review Online web compiler playpen can be found here: http://melpon.org/wandbox/permlink/DR8wCpu5Rl20GMdM? Please answer the following questions: 1. Should Boost.AFIO be accepted into Boost? Please state all conditions for acceptance explicity. 2. What is your evaluation of the design? 3. What is your evaluation of the implementation? 4. What is your evaluation of the documentation? 5. What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? 6. Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems? 7. How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? 8. Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain?

[Interprocess] Problem with file_lock on Linux
by Jan Niklas Hasse 31 Aug '15

The following code #include <boost/interprocess/sync/file_lock.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <fstream> int main() { std::ofstream file("test.lock"); boost::interprocess::file_lock flock("test.lock"); std::cout << flock.try_lock(); std::cout << flock.try_lock() << std::endl; } outputs 10 on Windows and 11 on Linux. Shouldn't it also print 10 on Linux or am I missunderstanding file_lock? I've also tried locking from different threads, but no luck.

The following program fails to compile (148 lines of errors, will paste on request) with g++ (Ubuntu 4.9.2-0ubuntu1~14.04) 4.9.2 in -std=c++11 mode. This is using Boost 1.59.0. Command line: g++ -std=c++11 -I ~/boost_1_59_0 -o make_variant make_variant.cpp I assume I'm making a simple error. I would appreciate your pointing it out. Thank you!

is it possible to group values with Boost's rtree?
by Andy Edwards 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

Hi everyone, I need a way to take a collection of 3D objects and put them into disjoint minimally overlapping groups no bigger than some N. Can this be done with Boost's rtree or any other Boost libraries? I've done this by putting the objects in an R* tree and using the nodes at a certain level of the tree (for example, 2 levels up from the leaf level) to determine the groups. However, that was in my own Java R* tree implementation that provided read-only access to its internal nodes. I'd like to port this program to C++ using Boost's rtree, but it doesn't provide read-only access to its nodes, does it? Does anyone know if it would be possible to extend the rtree to provide this? Or would it be possible to write a custom predicate to get the groupings? Thanks! Andy

[filesystem] Relative Draft Proposal RFC
by Beman Dawes 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

There have been requests for a Filesystem library relative function for at least ten years. The requested functionality seems simple - given two paths with a common prefix, return the non-common suffix portion of one of the paths such that it is relative to the other path. In terms of the Filesystem library, path p("/a/b/c"); path base("/a/b"); path rel = relative(p, base); // the requested function cout << rel << endl; // outputs "c" assert(absolute(rel, base) == p); If that was all there was to it, the Filesystem library would have had a relative function years ago. Critical issues: Clashing requirements, symlinks, directory placeholders (dot, dot-dot), user-expectations, corner cases. A paper by Jamie Allsop, Additions to Filesystem supporting Relative Paths, is what broke my mental logjam. Much of [my proposal] is based directly on Jamie's analysis and proposal. The weakly_canonical function and aspects of the semantic specifications are my contributions. Mistakes, of course, are mine. The full proposal is at http://boostorg.github.io/filesystem/relative_proposal.html A preliminary implementation is available in the feature/relative2 branch of the Boost Filesystem Git repository. See github.com/boostorg/filesystem/tree/feature/relative2 The overall plan is to get feedback from boost developers, then merge to develop for boost 1.60, then propose to the C++ committee for addition to the Filesystem TS. Comments welcome. If you are one of the many people who have requested "relative" functionality, does this proposal meet your needs? If not, why? Thanks, --Beman

Using boost modified bessel functions with complex arguments
by Ross Kynch 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

Dear all, Does anyone know how to call boost's modified bessel function of the first kind using a complex argument? Specifically I want the positive half integer order with complex argument so I use: #include <boost/math/special_functions/bessel.hpp> std::complex<double> output = boost::math::cyl_bessel_i(double nhalf, std::complex<double> x); but this gives me a huge list of compiler errors which seems to suggest the std::complex<double> template isn't valid. I am able to call other boost math library functions so I don't believe my install is to blame here. Thanks for any help Ross

Asio io_service and Thread scheduler/executor
by Mikael Olenfalk 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

Hi, I am currently thinking about how to move our project at work from a set of specific threads (1 thread per module e.g.) and our own network library abstraction to Boost.Asio and Boost.Thread's scheduler/executors. Before I read about schedulers/executors I considered just using asio::io_service (with a pool of threads calling .run()) for quick-shot background offloading, but after looking at scheduler/executor I would prefer using it for background work. Does anybody have any experience how to combine boost::asio with boost::thread's scheduler/executors? In my preferred design I would only have one thread pool backing both asio work and background computational tasks (e.g. using boost::async(Executor&, F&&, ...) ) My initial gut feeling was to have a thread-pool calling boost::asio::io_service.run() and then wrap that in an executor. I guess what I am asking for if somebody has any previous experience to share with this or similar approaches. Kind regards, /M

[Graph] Distributed edge insertion
by Sensei 25 Aug '15

25 Aug '15

Dear all, I am finding difficulties in understanding how distributed graphs work. My graph is simple, a string-valued property, with some edges, however, right now I have only one edge... if it works. Since each process will add its own nodes, is it possible to avoid communication when adding nodes, given that each node owns its own vertices, and no overlap is possible between processes? This would save some communication avoiding re-distribution of nodes. Can I add edges concurrently? Meaning, each process adds some edges. I've only seen examples with root adding edges, but that's limiting. My last question is maybe easy. I'm adding an edge that connects two nodes, owned by different processes. Doing this results in a crash. It seems I cannot access properties with operator[] when traversing processes. I'm posting the code below, along with the *crashing* output.

boost::ptr_vector does not support const types
by Martin Gamwell Dawids 25 Aug '15

25 Aug '15

I would like to use a ptr_vector to hold a number of const values but it seems ptr_vector does not currently support the use of const value types. See this simple code example: #include "boost/ptr_container/ptr_vector.hpp" #include <vector> class X { const int i; public: X(int i) : i(i) {} int getI() const { return i; } }; int main() { boost::ptr_vector<X> bvx; boost::ptr_vector<const X> bvcx; std::vector<X*> svx; std::vector<const X*> svcx; bvx.push_back(new X(42)); bvcx.push_back(new X(42)); // does not compile svx.push_back(new X(42)); svcx.push_back(new X(42)); return 0; } I have tried this on MSVC 2005/8.0 and with g++ on Mac – i.e. Apple LLVM version 6.1.0 (clang-602.0.53) (based on LLVM 3.6.0svn). On both compilers, calling 'push_back()' on a 'boost::ptr_vector<const X>' does not compile and on g++/Mac it yields this error message: ../boost/boost/ptr_container/ptr_sequence_adapter.hpp:249:37: error: reference to type 'const value_type' (aka 'void *const') could not bind to an lvalue of type 'value_type' (aka 'const X *') this->base().push_back( x ); // strong, commit ^ ptr_vector_test.cpp:22:8: note: in instantiation of member function 'boost::ptr_sequence_adapter<const X, std::__1::vector<void *, std::__1::allocator<void *> >, boost::heap_clone_allocator>::push_back' requested here bvcx.push_back(x); ^ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/../include/c++/v1/vector:697:62: note: passing argument to parameter '__x' here _LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY void push_back(const_reference __x); ^ 1 error generated. So the problem occurs when the passed value of type 'const X*' needs to be pushed to the backing 'std::vector<void*>' – i.e. a non-const 'void*' element type. The same problem exists for push_front(). A simple fix for 'push_back()' (and similar for 'push_front()') is to modify the file 'ptr_sequence_adapter.hpp' adding a cast of the value before pushing is: --- a/include/boost/ptr_container/ptr_sequence_adapter.hpp +++ b/include/boost/ptr_container/ptr_sequence_adapter.hpp @@ -246,7 +246,7 @@ namespace ptr_container_detail this->enforce_null_policy( x, "Null pointer in 'push_back()'" ); auto_type ptr( x ); // notrow - this->base().push_back( x ); // strong, commit + this->base().push_back( (void*) x ); // strong, commit ptr.release(); // nothrow } I am using a C-style cast as neither 'const_cast' nor 'reinterpret_cast' can be used here. (I know the formatting of the comments should also be fixed, but that would make my diff here more difficult to read.) Is there another workaround for this or have I overlooked something? /Martin

[multi-index] multi-index type trait
by Elizabeta 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

Hi how to test if the first index of boost::multi-index is key based or sequence based at compile time. I need to write something like this : template<class T,class M> void f(T& object,typename boost::enable_if<first_index_is_sequence<T>>::type* dummy = 0) { M element; object.push_back(element); } template<class T,class M> void f(T& object,typename boost::enable_if<first_index_is_key<T>>::type* dummy = 0) { M element; object.insert(element); } -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/multi-index-multi-index-type-trait-tp467… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Missing thread symbols when compiling from source: join(), ~thread() and start_thread()
by Edward Kornkven 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

Hello, I am trying to build Boost for linking with an application. I do not have admin access and there is an existing older Boost version in the system area. My problem is that there are three thread symbols that do not get defined by my build process: undefined reference to `boost::thread::join()' undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()' undefined reference to `boost::thread::start_thread()' Google reveals that this problem has been around for a while but the usual remedy is to install some binary or other. I need to build from source but for the life of me I can't understand what I am doing wrong that these symbols are not being defined. I can search everything that is being built using "nm" and they just aren't there. I think I am using a pretty standard build process of first building Boost.Build, then the rest: ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=gcc ./b2 install --prefix=${PREFIX} ${PREFIX}/bin/b2 --prefix=${PREFIX} toolset=gcc install I have geared down to various forms of magic: stage and then install, --without-thread followed by --with-thread, but I must be missing something basic about these libraries which I do not have occasion to use routinely. The build scripts are a bit opaque but don't indicate any errors. I am a little surprised that this isn't in an FAQ somewhere but maybe not many of us build Boost from source. Thanks for any assistance. Ed

build boost with specific msvcrt.lib
by Abhay Mhatre 21 Aug '15

21 Aug '15

is it possible to provide specific msvcrt.lib while building boost. It uses default one and my build system uses the one specified in build system. this causes heap corruption at the end of program termination. thanks
