[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

Weird compilation error when using boost::geometry
by 邓尧 16 Nov '17

16 Nov '17

Hi, I have implemented my own "point" as specified by the point concept http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/libs/geometry/doc/html/geometry/refere… When I use it along with boost::geometry::model::polygon/multi_polygon, GCC refuses to compile, tested on GCC 4.9/5.2. What's even more weird is that CLANG 3.6 would happy accept my code. BTW, the Point implementation is part of a large project, it difficult to replace it with boost::geometry::model::point. Here is my code: Point.hpp > #ifndef RAPTOR_POINT_HPP_INCLUDED_ > > #define RAPTOR_POINT_HPP_INCLUDED_ > > >> #include <boost/mpl/int.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/core/access.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/core/cs.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/core/coordinate_type.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/core/coordinate_system.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/core/coordinate_dimension.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/geometries/polygon.hpp> > > #include <boost/geometry/multi/geometries/multi_polygon.hpp> > > >> namespace raptor { > > >> template<typename T, int tDimension = 2> > > class Point { > > public: > > Point() = default;

[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

[Fit] upcoming formal review for Boost.Fit
by Vicente J. Botet Escriba 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

Dear Boost community, The formal review of Paul Fultz II's Fit library starts on Wednesday, 2nd March and ends on 13th March. Fit is a header-only C++11/C++14 library that provides utilities for functions and function objects. Fit is: - Modern: Fit takes advantages of modern C++11/C++14 features. It support both `constexpr` initialization and `constexpr` evaluation of functions. It takes advantage of type deduction, variadic templates, and perfect forwarding to provide a simple and modern interface. - Relevant: Fit provides utilities for functions and does not try to implement a functional language in C++. As such, Fit solves many problems relevant to C++ programmers, including initialization of function objects and lambdas, overloading with ordering, improved return type deduction, and much more. - Lightweight: Fit builds simple lightweight abstraction on top of function objects. It does not require subscribing to an entire framework. Just use the parts you need. Fit is divided into three components: * Function Adaptors and Decorators: These enhance functions with additional capability. * Functions: These return functions that achieve a specific purpose. * Utilities: These are general utilities that are useful when defining or using functions Fit has been tested on gcc 4.6-4.9, clang 3.4-3.7, and Visual Studio 2015. For more information see: Github:https://github.com/pfultz2/Fit/tree/boost Documentation:http://pfultz2.github.io/Fit/doc/html/ Note that, as Fit is a functional library, the semantic of the functions is given in the form of `equations` instead of the classic effects, returns schema. This is because most of the functions have no side effects. E.g. the semantic of the function flip is defined as |assert(flip(f)(x, y, xs...) == f(y, x, xs...));| and the semantic of compose as |assert(compose(f, g)(xs...) == f(g(xs...)));| We await your feedback! Best regards, Vicente J. Botet Escriba P.S. Paul, now it is time to freeze the version that will be reviewed. I suggest you to create a branch on which you could fix the review issues.

boost::asio::read_until Segmentation Fault & Third Party Signal Handler
by Craig, Tom 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

My Linux application sis using bool::asio::read_until() to read data from a socket. The application also uses commercial, 3rd party hardware. Occasionally my program crashes due to a SIGSEGV violation. The core dump stack trace is shown below. It indicates that the 3rd party signal handler is invoked while my thread is waiting for socket I/O, and that the crash is occurring during signal handler execution. While I recognize that this is an issue with the 3rd party vendor (and I am currently engaged in discussions with them), I'm wondering if my usage of boost is incorrect, or if there is something that I should be doing differently in performing socket I/O? I am using boost v1.43. [cid:image001.png@01D17303.98B2DD10] E. Thomas Craig Principal Software Engineer SWIFT Division KLA-Tencor Corporation 408-875-7909 (work) 650-799-4787 (cell)

Also, I tried to add an initial Jamfile to build and run the tests as well. I just modified the Jamfile from other boost libraries.

[gsoc16] Boost rejected as GSoC 2016 org
by Niall Douglas 29 Feb '16

29 Feb '16

Dear Boost, It is with a heavy heart I write to say that Boost was rejected as an org for Google Summer of Code 2016 by Google. We had our application submitted in time, it was reviewed by three members of the Boost leadership, our ideas list had six solid ideas with an especially solid seventh on the way, we were in very good standing with Google and there was no reason to expect rejection. We have asked for clarification as to why we were rejected, and we shall try to improve our application next year to improve our chances. We recognise that many students and mentors will be extremely disappointed by this news. We share in that disappointment, and all we can say is please try again next year. For those students and mentors who are continuing a previous GSoC on an existing Boost library, there may be a possibility that Boost may be able to fund those continuations this year. Each case will be approached by the steering committee on a case by case basis, and be aware that the standard required for funding by Boost is considerably above that of Google's with an accompanying high and detailed standard of funding application to the steering committee. Contact us privately if you want to know more. On other news we had been expecting to announce today that Bryce Adelstein Lelbach has generously agreed to take over as secondary GSoC admin from Boris Schäling who has served Boost GSoC for something like four years now, so he has definitely earned himself a rest! Our thanks to Boris for his service, and welcome Bryce to the team! Finally, I'd like to thank Jon Kalb who moved heaven and earth as he always does to get the GSoC application submitted in time. Yours, Niall Douglas -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/

Re: [Boost-users] Boost.Context stack growing inwards
by Thomas Ziegenhagen 29 Feb '16

29 Feb '16

Hi again, just noticed that the make_fcontext() documentation says that it expects the stack pointer to be at the end or at the beginning, depending on the architecture. So please re-read my last mail as a feature request: If Boost.Context is a platform-independent context switching library, please make its stack pointer parameter also platform-independent. Rationale: Booost.Context knows best on which platform it runs. If the API is supposed to work the same on all supported systems, its parameter should do so, too. Other than that: Sorry for wasting your time. Bye, Thomas

Boost.Context stack growing inwards
by Thomas Ziegenhagen 29 Feb '16

29 Feb '16

Hi there, I get regular crashes when using Boost.Context after just a few calls to make_fcontext(). I built a minimal example as follows: ---- #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <boost/context/all.hpp> struct Context { boost::context::fcontext_t c_outside, c_inside; }; Context gContext = { nullptr, nullptr }; void DoIt( intptr_t /*pt*/) { uint8_t test[64]; memset( test, 0xaf, sizeof( test)); std::cout << "DoIt(), Point 1" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_inside, gContext.c_outside, 0, true); std::cout << "DoIt(), Point 2" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_inside, gContext.c_outside, 0, true); std::cout << "DoIt(), Point 3" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_inside, gContext.c_outside, 0, true); } int main() { const size_t StackSize = 16384; std::vector<uint8_t> stack( StackSize, 0xf1); gContext.c_inside = boost::context::make_fcontext( stack.data() + 256, stack.size() - 512, DoIt); std::cout << "main(), Point 1" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_outside, gContext.c_inside, 0, true); std::cout << "main(), Point 2" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_outside, gContext.c_inside, 0, true); std::cout << "main(), Point 3" << std::endl; boost::context::jump_fcontext( &gContext.c_outside, gContext.c_inside, 0, true); std::cout << "main(), Point 4" << std::endl; return 0; } ------ This notable thing is that I provide a stack with additional 256 bytes of safety borders. And it turns out: the provided memory is overwritten way beyond the beginning. The actual designated area is not touched at all, but instead the area before the beginning is overwritten. The only thing I found in the documentation is this: "sp Member: Pointer to the beginning of the stack (depending of the architecture the stack grows downwards or upwards)." which hints that on some system the stack might grow to negative addresses. But up to now I thought that boost.context knows which direction is correct, and adjusts the given pointer accordingly. But apparently it doesn't. Or the environment underwent a drastic change. Here it is Windows 10 64bit, Visual Studio 2015. For readers remembering my last mails: I have verified this also with an "classic" boost build using this command line: b2.exe -a --reconfigure variant=debug,release link=static runtime-link=static --with-context So I'm pretty sure it's not a build issue. Question: is this a bug? Probably not, I'm surely not the first to use Boost.Context, so I wonder what the correct way is to handle this issue. So what do I do about this? Thanks in advance Bye, Thomas

Boost.Spirit Karma: how to store generator?
by Matwey V. Kornilov 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

Hello, After reading Karma tutorial, I still don't understand whether there a way to store generator except auto my_generator = ... I would like to generate text representation for many similar objects and I think that it is worth to use single generate object and pass it to generate_delimited() by const reference. Are there such things like qi::rule<> and qi::grammar for Karma?

[ sorting_view ] -do not sort arrays, sort iterators instead
by Boris Kats 27 Feb '16

27 Feb '16

The sorting procedure is one of the most usable routine in programming.And all sorting template functions have the same signature:template< class RandomIt, class Compare >void sort( RandomIt first, RandomIt last, Compare comp );with conditions: the type of dereferenced RandomIt must meet the requirements of MoveAssignable and MoveConstructible.It is clear that in the sorting process a lot of records are moving in the memory andwhen these records have a big size, these movements, together with calling constructors, can be very expensive.Solution.The proposed template function sorting_view is free of that problem - the sorting procedureis working (and moving) on tiny objects - iterators. As result of that procedure,the initial array of records is remaining intact; however provided std::vector<int> viewallows indirect access to the sorted array. On many occasions user does not need the sortedarray at all and he/she has a luxury to iterate through sorted and unsorted arrays simultaneously.In case of real needs of sorted array, it can be obtained via other template function apply_view with exactly 2*N movements of the records, where N is the size of initial array.For getting sorted view of arrays of user's defined records the appropriate Compare template function should be supplied.Happy sorting, Boris Kats.

Hey there, I've been at this for days now and can't seem to find anything to help with this: I got the project at https://github.com/falvaro/seshat and followed the instructions exactly as-is: - Got the *Boost* headers - Have got *g++ *compiler ( versions 5.2, 4.9, 4.7, 4.5, 4.3) and my default *clang++* *- Makefile *is present *P.S.* I'm on *OS X Mavericks*; Used *MacPorts* to install all above gcc versions *except *5.2, which was manually done following this tutorial: https://solarianprogrammer.com/2015/05/01/compiling-gcc-5-mac-os-x/#comment… However, when I attempt to compile it, I get the following errors (attached in the Textfile below). A screenshot image also attached shows the filesystem and path I am working with, from where the error file was created. Honestly, I'm at my wits end now, especially with my being new to C++. ANY helpful insight into this would be MOST APPRECIATED. Much thanks in advance, chiich.

Build Boost.Context with Visual Studio
by Thomas Ziegenhagen 26 Feb '16

26 Feb '16

Hi there, I'm building the required portions of Boost myself, along with all my other projects. It turned out that even the smallest compiler setting changes lead to strange crashes, some of which only occured on 5% of the client's systems, so I will not use externally built boost libraries anymore. So now I'm building the parts of boost which I require, which works fine so far. The trouble starts when I tried to use Boost.Context. It also contains ASM code, which I now need to build in Visual Studio 2015. VS2015 does not have builtin Asm support, for x64 it never had. So I'm invoking the Microsoft assembler as a custom build step. Command line is as follows: ml64 /Fo path/to/obj/file.obj /c path/to/source/jump_x86_64_ms_pe_masm.asm Documentation is as scarce as usual, but I figured from the filename that jump_x86_64_ms_pe_masm.asm is the correct file for Microsoft Visual Studio, x64. But assembling failed, and to add insult to injury, the error messages are lost somewhere in the output piping process. The complete output reads like this: ------ 1>------ Erstellen gestartet: Projekt: boost, Konfiguration: Debug x64 ------ 1> Microsoft (R) Macro Assembler (x64) Version 14.00.23506.0 1> Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.

But that's just a funny anecdote. My actual question is: how do I build Boost.Context in Visual Studio? Is there maybe some way to see the effective command line when building using Boost.Jam? Is this even the right ASM file for x86_64, Visual Studio? Thanks in advance! Bye, Thomas

Spherical Bessel function (nu, x as real) implementation
by campagne 26 Feb '16

26 Feb '16

Dear developpers, 1) Does you use this reference to compute Spherical Bessel Functions for real argument? Accurate recursive generation of spherical Bessel and Neumann functions for a large range of indices E. Gillman <http://scitation.aip.org/content/contributor/AU0510272>^1 and H. R. Fiebig <http://scitation.aip.org/search?value1=H.+R.+Fiebig&option1=author&option91…>Comput. Phys. 2, 62(1988); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.168296 2) is there a way to speed up the computation of j_nu(x) if one wants 10 digits accuracy for instance? Best regards J.E

[ASIO] Resolver question
by Davies, John 25 Feb '16

25 Feb '16

I have some pretty simple UPD code. (It has to be simple, I'm new at ASIO) boost::asio::ip::udp::resolver::query query(boost::asio::ip::udp::v4(), addr, port); m_receiverEndpoint = *m_resolver.resolve(query); If my address is 192.168.1.112 everything works If my address is 192.168.001.112 it doesn't work and throws an exception about not finding the host. It's not a big deal, but it sure took me a long time to track down. Is there some sort of Boost magic I can do to convert the bad address into a good address?

[graph] abort algorithm execution from a visitor
by Frank Tetzel 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

Hi all, i played around with the bfs example calculating distances to all vertices. Now i just want to calculate the distance between two vertices, so i want to stop when the target vertex is visited. If i understood the visitor concept correctly it's not really possible to change the behaviour of the algorithm from a visitor. Does anybody know of any workaround to do early exit? Do i have to implement a new algorithm for this? In a different thread on this list Paolo Bolzoni wrote that he aborts in a custom visitor by throwing an exception. Is this the only way? I'm using bfs here and not dijkstra because i have uniform edge weights. Btw, if someone could fix the documentation that would be really nice: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/graph/doc/bfs_visitor.html The code snippet there did not work for me. I had to wrap make_bfs_visitor() in visitor() like it is done in examples/bfs.cpp too. Regards, Frank

Boost 1.60 Raspberry Pi lockfree::queue compilation error
by Alexander Simpson 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

Hello, I’m trying to compile a project that makes use of boost::lockfree::queue on a Raspberry Pi 2 running Jessie. I built version 1.60 of Boost myself (apt-get was out of date) with sudo ./bjam install. I’m not cross-compiling. When I attempt to compile a project that uses the boost library I get the error listed below (where boostreader.cpp is the file written by me). I found a patch suggested two years ago here (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/9041 <https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/9041>) but the changes in that patch seem to have already applied in 1.60, so I’m at a loss as to what to do. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

boost 1.54: problem with building documentation.
by Paul K 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

Hallo people. I need to have documentation in man pages format on my ubuntu 14.04. Unfortunatelly, I fail with this task. The following are the steps I've performed. In step 11 I do "../b2" instead "../b2 man" just to highlight that the problem is not related to building the man pages. Of course "../b2 man" fails as well Could You please help me with it? 1. install following packages for man pages build. lubuntu.14.04$ sudo apt-get install xsltproc lubuntu.14.04$ sudo apt-get install doxygen 2. lubuntu.14.04$ dpkg --list | grep libboost-all ii libboost-all-dev 1.54.0.1ubuntu1 i386 Boost C++ Libraries development files (ALL) (default version) 3. download boost_1_54_0.tar.bz2, unpack to ~/ 4. cd ~/boost_1_54_0 5. ./bootstrap prepares build configuration and puts it to project-config.jam. 6. ./b2 builds whole the boost libraries, but does not install them into the system. 7. lubuntu.14.04$ export BOOST_ROOT=/home/userp/boost_1_54_0 8. lubuntu.14.04$ cd ~/boost.doc/ 9. lubuntu.14.04$ ~/boost_1_54_0/tools/boostbook/setup_boostbook.sh Downloading DocBook XSLT Stylesheets version 1.75.2...

boost::any constructors
by David 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

Hi, boost::any has a perfect forward constructor declared as: template<typename ValueType> any(ValueType&& value , typename boost::disable_if<boost::is_same<any&, ValueType> >::type* = 0 // disable if value has type `any&` , typename boost::disable_if<boost::is_const<ValueType> >::type* = 0) // disable if value has type `const ValueType&&` : content(new holder< typename decay<ValueType>::type >(static_cast<ValueType&&>(value))) {} The is_const SFINAE exclusion forces const types to the regular copy constructor: template<typename ValueType> any(const ValueType & value) : content(new holder< BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME remove_cv<BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME decay<const ValueType>::type>::type >(value)) {} What is different about how the regular copy constructor treats a constant value than what the perfect forward construct would do if the is_const exclusion were removed? Thanks, David

Nested BOOST_FOREACH crash
by peyman＠ausdia.com 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

Good Day Boosters! I am experiencing sporadic crashes that look like memory problem when I have nested (2 level) BOOST_FOREACH loops. Reason I say it looks like memory problem is because slightest change will make it crash or not crash. For example, adding a simple cout would change it! I cannot provide a testcase. So I am just wondering if anybody has experienced the same, or know what could be going on. I am using Boost 1.57. Cheers, Peyman

Need help when adapting boost 1.59.0 to WinRT
by Nguyễn Trung Duy 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

Dear Boost team, I need your help with adapting boost 1.59 to WinRT. I am working on boost and reSIProcate. I built boost and integrated it with reSIProcate project. However, when build reflow project, I got stuck with bellow bugs. I wonder with your great experiences, could you please give me some advice. The error happens at line 96 : #if defined(BOOST_ASIO_WINDOWS_RUNTIME) const int max_addr_v4_str_len = 256; const int max_addr_v6_str_len = 256; typedef unsigned __int32 u_long_type; typedef unsigned __int16 u_short_type; struct in4_addr_type { u_long_type s_addr; }; // error at here And the logs: *\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(96): error C3927: '->': trailing return type is not allowed after a non-function declarator (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(96): error C3484: syntax error: expected '->' before the return type (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(96): error C3613: missing return type after '->' ('int' assumed) (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(96): error C3646: 'S_addr': unknown override specifier (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C3927: '->': trailing return type is not allowed after a non-function declarator (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C3484: syntax error: expected '->' before the return type (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C3613: missing return type after '->' ('int' assumed) (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C3646: 'Byte': unknown override specifier (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C2143: syntax error: missing ',' before '[' (compiling source file MediaStream.cxx)\boost-msvc-14.0-store\boost/asio/detail/socket_types.hpp(98): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.
