Boost Coroutine
by Miguel Portilla 19 Oct '16

19 Oct '16

Hello, Using Boost 1.62, I am seeing the following warning when I build my project. warning : Boost.Coroutine is now deprecated. Please switch to Boost.Coroutine2. To disable this warning message, define BOOST_COROUTINE_NO_DEPRECATION_WARNING. I haven't found any documentation on what exactly this means or how to 'switch'. Can someone please point me to some docs or explain what 'switching' entails? Thanks, -M

boost graph pruning vertices (nodes)
by Brian Davis 14 Oct '16

14 Oct '16

In reading http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/libs/graph/doc/adjacency_list.html regarding Iterator and Descriptor Stability/Invalidation it leaves the impression that when using vecS there is no real good way to remove nodes. as example: typedef adjacency_list<listS, vecS> Graph; // VertexList=vecS all cases are wrong and typedef adjacency_list<listS, listS> Graph; // VertexList=listS where only one case is correct which leave the programmer walking the mine field. Of … [View More]course same can be said for stl. My goal to remove graph vertices based on the value of the connected components. I currently have a method which uses connected components to generate a connected components list. I then generate a histogram of the connected components values thus giving me how many vertices are connected and what the connection property value is... assuming I understand connected components however I have thought I understood portions of boost only to find through some brain warp and folding my thought process back on itself like an origami master that I came to understand how certain parts work. vertid, component 0 0 1 0 2 0 3 0 4 1 5 1 6 2 7 2 8 2 9 2 10 2 11 2 12 3 13 3 so in this simple example vert ids [0-3] are connected in subnet 0 with a total of 4, [4-5] are connected in sub net 1 with a total of 2, [6-11] are connected in subnet 2 with a total of 6, and [12-13] is connected in subnet 3 with a total of 2. Histogram yields connected component value and number of vertices that have that value in the bin component : bin counts 0: #### 1: ## 2: ###### 3: ## etc for say subnet/subgraph less than 4 would yield the filtered histogram: 1: ## 3: ## using values 1, and 3 from filtered histogram I can then find the vertex ids to filter. Yielding vertices 4,5,12, and 15 to be removed which would remove subnets 1 and 3. 4 1 5 1 12 3 13 3 I tried to use boost::accumulators::density and maybe I have a different idea of what a histogram really is, but for a typical histogram density is just plane broken due to the seemingly use of count for number of bins (seems to ignore tag::density::num_bins) and associated logic. accumulator_t acc( tag::density::num_bins = n_bins, tag::density::cache_size = n_bins/2 ); Sure wish there was a boost::accumulators::histogram that just did what we need as programmers. I am unsure as to how much boost coolaid to drink before finding any use for density. I did find this relating to the seemingly not as advertised implementation of density http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/01/132801.php. From http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/doc/html/accumulators/user_s_guide.html "The tag::density feature returns a histogram of the sample distribution. For more implementation details, see density_impl." err huh no it does not... at least in my testing. It would also be great if the abcicissas (intervals) were some how obtainable to compare to the ordinates (bin counts) . Note the histogram.hpp attached there. So I write by own histogram code using stl. I digress on that. So as I said I then filter the vertex vs connected components data based on a threshold say 4 to remove all vertices that are not connected to 4 or more vertices in a subnet/subgraph So I then have a list of vertices (subnets/subgraphs) that I wish to prune from the graph thus these questions: Question 1: if finding a list of vertices to erase, sorting them, and then using, a reverse iterator to remove(*itr, g) would this also not work? If this works why is it now shown as an example of vecS vertex removal working? Question 2: Should there not be a boost graph-ish way of doing this such as coloring vertices to be pruned by possibly adding property prune = true. then maybe a future call to prune(g) Question 3: Possibly there is a way to get filtered_graph to do the trick? Statement: it is unfortunate the use of the term vertex/vertices in stead of node(s) in boost graph. As some graphs have a vertex (euclidean geometry) such as a graph of the center-lines of the vascular network of a brain while other graphs do not. It is very confusing in this instance to keep the two strait in code. Ugh! [View Less]

[Serialization] Free-standing serialize function for "enum class"
by Rüdiger Berlich 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hi there, I have for a while suspected a problem with the serialization of an „enum class“ item (currently with Boost 1.61 on Ubuntu 16.04), and have written a small test program to further examine any potential problems. While the generated XML looks fine and I cannot see any problems with the enum class, my custom, free-standing „serialize“ function does not get called. It is modelled after the examples for non-intrusive serialization, so I do not understand the reason behind this. Any … [View More]

Boost test failures on arm platform
by Carlos Ferreira 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hello! I'm cross-compiling Boost to an arm platform and because of that, boost fails to execute the cxx11_* tests and then it outputs the information that the compiler does not support a series of cxx11_* capabilities. Is there a way to disable these library tests, when cross-compiling? -- Carlos Miguel Ferreira Researcher at Telecommunications Institute Aveiro - Portugal Work E-mail - cmf(a)av.it.pt Skype & GTalk -> carlosmf.pt(a)gmail.com LinkedIn -> http://www.linkedin.com/in/carlosmferreira

Announcing version 3 of the cxx_dual library
by Edward Diener 12 Oct '16

12 Oct '16

I have created version 3 of the cxx_dual library. version 3 is a large rewrite of the documentation to simplify the use of the library, as well as a change in the directory structure so that the basic usage of the library is through a single header file and the use of a namespace alias, and not through the macro interface. As in: #include <boost/cxx_dual/regex.hpp> void SomeFunction() { cxxd_regex_ns::regex re("A regular expression etc."); bool result(cxxd_regex_ns::… [View More]

Issues trying to use boost::unordered_map
by Ram 11 Oct '16

Hi, I am trying to use a boost::unordered_map as a member of my class. The unordered_map is defined as, boost::unordered_map<int, int> a; as a private member in the class. I have included #include "boost/unordered_map.hpp" using namespace boost; This is the compilation error I get, x_objs.cpp c:\codeworks\common\lib\boost\boost\unordered\detail\buckets.hpp(767) : error C2059: syntax error : '(' c:\codeworks\common\lib\boost\boost\unordered\detail\buckets.hpp(766) : while compiling … [View More]

[fiber] Asio autoecho example crashes (VS 2015 u3)
by DePizzottri 11 Oct '16

11 Oct '16

Hi all, I'm found that asio autoecho example crashes after main's return statement. Debugger shows write access from the fiber scheduler to the already destroed io_service. Substitution reference to io_service: boost::asio::io_service & io_svc_; in round_robin algo to the shared_ptr: boost::shared_ptr<boost::asio::io_service> io_svc_; with approprieate correction of the other code solves the problem. Maybe I misunderstood something in the descrition from … [View More]

Re: [Boost-users] [ASIO] Do coroutines allow serving multiple clients at once?

Thanks, does spawning a coroutine also spawn a new thread? I'd be inclined to think so from what you told me
