[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;

[Log] Random "double free or corruption" in dtor of attribute_value_set
by robin.lorke＠jenoptik.com 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi Gentlemen, I have an application that is using Boost.Log. The application is long-term running (days, weeks, maybe months). Currently I am experiencing random crashes in my application that seem related to Boost.Log. I dont't say that is is a bug in Boost.Log, but probably I am doing something wrong. I am using version 1.55.0 but I also tried upgrading to version 1.61.0 but it is still happening there. I am currently able to reproduce the crash by forcing logs at a pace of 3 records per second. Then it takes up to 3 days for the crash to happen. The application is multi-threaded and therefore several threads may be logging at the same time. For that reason I chose "severity_logger_mt". It seems related to the destruction of objects of type attribute_value_set. This is a gdb stacktrace of the crash (gcc O0 build): (gdb) bt #0 0xb6bdbed8 in __GI_raise (sig=sig@entry=6) at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:66 #1 0xb6bdf960 in __GI_abort () at abort.c:90 #2 0xb6c139fc in __libc_message (do_abort=2, fmt=0xb6cc8c44 "*** glibc detected *** %s: %s: 0x%s ***\n") at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/libc_fatal.c:200 #3 0xb6c1e17c in malloc_printerr (action=3, str=0xb6cc8d80 "double free or corruption (!prev)", ptr=<optimized out>) at malloc.c:4949 #4 0xb6b3fcb8 in boost::log::v2_mt_posix::attribute_value_set::~attribute_value_set() () from /usr/lib/libboost_log.so.1.55.0 #5 0xb6b42688 in boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record_view::public_data::destroy (boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record_view::public_data const*) () from /usr/lib/libboost_log.so.1.55.0 #6 0xb6b44c7c in boost::log::v2_mt_posix::core::push_record_move (boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record&) () from /usr/lib/libboost_log.so.1.55.0 #7 0xb6e66814 in Logger::addLog(Logger::LEVEL, char const*, char const*, int) () from /usr/lib/libtslog.so.1 #8 0x0005ba50 in addLogRusp (iMessageId=2, sMessage=<optimized out>, sProcess=0x8dee8 "Application", eLevel=Logger::LEVEL_INFO) at ../src/RLS-V/Platform/System.inl.h:303 #9 RLS::Application::fnThreadRuspOut (thread=...) at ../src/RLS-V/Application.cpp:1447 #10 0xb6e7aa4c in Thread::startFunction(void*) () from /usr/lib/libtscommon.so.1 #11 0xb6edae38 in start_thread (arg=0xb3eff460) at pthread_create.c:313 #12 0xb6c7c318 in ??

It's a char pointer. So we use an empty std::string as basis to concatenate the char* to it */ #define R_LOG_ID(x,y) BOOST_LOG_SEV (robot::log::appLogger::get(), y) << boost::log::add_value("LogID", x) << boost::log::add_value("FLF", ROBOT_FLF) #define R_LOG(x) R_LOG_ID(0, x) #define ROBOT_FLF std::string() + TOSTRING(__FILE__) + ":" + TOSTRING (__LINE__) + " (" + __FUNCTION__ + ")" While "R_LOG_ID" is the only one that is used currently. There are currently three sinks active: syslog, console and a custom sink sending log records via an IPC mechanism (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~./IPC/) I am currently testing if it will still happen if I deactivate one or more of those sinks. I imagine it will be hard to tell the exact problem from the information above but maybe you guys could point me in the right direction where to dig deeper. I will happily provide any missing information and/or code snippets that could help. Possibly there are well-known common mistakes that can lead to that memory corruption in attribute_value_set? Maybe something like lazy evaluation of log expressions or multi-threading issues? Many thanks in advance for any help! Robin Lorke

[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

[boost] [bjam] combinations of options
by Lorenzo Caminiti 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Hello all, When I use bjam the following will compile my code with combinations of MSVC, GCC, and CLang for both shared and static linking: $ bjam toolset=msvc,gcc,clang link=shared,static # (1) Is there a way to define a variant, target, or something else in the Jamfiles so that I can shortcut the above by typing just the variant target at the command line: $ bjam all_toolset_link_combinations # equivalent to (1) above I am asking this just for convenience because I have a feature like toolset but with 30+ values so it'd be nice to shortcut it to a single target on the bjam command line. Thank you. --Lorenzo

[test] Init framework before dataset generation
by Florian Lindner 16 Sep '16

16 Sep '16

Hello, I try to use boost test with data test cases: std::vector<float> fibonacci() { std::cout << "Data Set" << std::endl; [...] } BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE(datatest, boost::unit_test::data::make(fibonacci()), mapping) { std::cout << "Datatype" << typeid(mapping).name() << std::endl; } The problem of that is, that fibonacci is initialized before anything else. The order of initializations is: Data Set main init_unit_test Global Fixture That works fine here, but my fibonacci uses MPI which needs to initialized by MPI_Init. I want to do that initialization in the global fixture or int main or init_unit_tests, once for the entire test runner. Is there anything I can do about that and belay initialization of Data Set after one of the others? Thanks, Florian

iostreams: ceased devolopment?
by Christian Meesters 01 Sep '16

01 Sep '16

Hi, I noticed that there are numerous issues in the bug list, regarding boost iostreams. However, the current doc states Copyright 2004-2007 and Tickets do not receive responses. (I even read: "(I tried e-mailing Jonathan Turkanis directly, but the e-mail address on the website seems to be not used anymore)" in ticket 7574. So, my question is: I anyone maintaining this library? If not: I doubt that there is a good alternative, because iostreams just is convenient to use and a selling point to for boost. It would be a pitty. Best regards, Christian

boost libs can't find each other in non-standard location
by Hugh Caley 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

I'm having problems getting my boost libs to find each other on certain platforms. We're distributing the boost libs in a non-standard location. I created a runtime path in my apps that finds the boost libs fine, per ldd, but when a boost lib is dynamically liked to another boost lib in the same location it can't find it. For instance, libboost_thread needs libboost_atomic, and can't find it, even though it's in the same dir. On Linux, MacOSX and AIX, they can find each other. On Solaris and HP-UX, though, they can't. Boost version is 1_59. Strangely, we had this working with a previous version of our software on Solaris linked with Boost 1_55. I don't see the difference. I tried setting a runtime path of '.' in the boost libs themselves, but it ends up being '.' wherever I am, NOT where the lib is. -- Hugh Caley Software Developer, Rocket Aldon Rocket Software 2200 Powell Street · Suite 900 · Emeryville · CA · 94608-1809 · USA · Tel: +1.510.285.8542 Email:hcaley@rocketsoftware.com<mailto:Email:hcaley@rocketsoftware.com> Web:http://aldon.rocketsoftware.com ================================ Rocket Software, Inc. and subsidiaries ■ 77 Fourth Avenue, Waltham MA 02451 ■ +1 877.328.2932 ■ +1 781.577.4321 Unsubscribe From Commercial Email – unsubscribe(a)rocketsoftware.com Manage Your Subscription Preferences - http://info.rocketsoftware.com/GlobalSubscriptionManagementEmailFooter_Subs… Privacy Policy - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/company/legal/privacy-policy ================================ This communication and any attachments may contain confidential information of Rocket Software, Inc.

[thread] Error checking mutex
by Paul Fee 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

Hi all, When using pthread mutexes a number of types are available (man pthread_mutexattr_settype). The normal and recursive types are exposed via boost as boost::mutex and boost::recursive_mutex. I'd like to use PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK mutexes but don't see such a mutex type within boost or C++ std namespaces. I'm wondering why this C feature is not exposed to C++ users. Are there plans to do so? Has it been omitted because this POSIX feature is not portable to other platforms? For experimentation purposes I've duplicated then modified the code from boost/thread/recursive_mutex.hpp and boost/thread/pthread/recursive_mutex.hpp to create errorcheck_mutex.hpp on my Fedora 24 system and it gives me the error checking functionality I'm after. Is this a reasonable approach to plug the gap in Boost or is there a reason not to do so? Thanks, Paul

[serialization] Problem building boost 1.56 under gcc 5.3
by Nolen, Steven Douglas 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

We are trying to build on a linux platform using gcc-5.3. We already have installations for gcc-4.6.1 thru gcc-4.9 that work. When we tried moving to gcc-5.3, the build worked (apparently), but then we saw linking errors of this ilk... <blah, blah, blah> undefined reference to `boost::archive::text_oarchive_impl<boost::archive::text_oarchive>::save(std::string const&) The same linking errors happen when we build our code and when we tried just building the demo samples with the package. We have tried building a more recent version of boost and also scouring stackoverflow and others. Anyone having similar issues, or who might be aware of what's happening?

[type_erasure] static check of concept compliance
by Joaquin M López Muñoz 30 Aug '16

30 Aug '16

Consider: using any_t=any< boost::mpl::vector< copy_constructible<>, incrementable<> > >; struct foo{}; int main() { std::cout<<std::is_constructible<any_t,foo>::value<<"\n"; } This program outputs 1 as the ctor of boost::type_erasure::any<Concept> if not restricted to Concept-compliant args, but of course we can't use foo to construct any_t: any_t x{foo{}}; // compile error as foo is not incrementable Is there a (publicly available) way to determine if an argument of type U can be used to construct an any<Concept,T>? I'd like to have this for doing SFINAE in my any-using code. Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz

Yet another issue with BGL Deserialization
by giacomo＠openmailbox.org 28 Aug '16

28 Aug '16

I'm trying to both serialize and deserialize the data in a graph format. The definition of my graph is the following one. #include <boost/graph/adjacency_list.hpp> #include <boost/graph/directed_graph.hpp> #include <boost/graph/adj_list_serialize.hpp> #include <boost/archive/binary_oarchive.hpp> #include <boost/archive/binary_iarchive.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/string.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/binary_object.hpp> class VFull { public: VFull(); unsigned int id, hash, year; std::string ip, organization; VFull(unsigned int id, unsigned int hash, unsigned int year, std::string ip, std::string organization); template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version); }; class EFull { public: EFull(); template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version); }; class GFull { public: template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version); }; //Defining the graph data structure. Using the vecS specification typedef boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::directedS,VFull,EFull,GFull> graph_t; typedef boost::graph_traits<graph_t>::vertex_descriptor result_vertex_descriptor; typedef boost::graph_traits<graph_t>::edge_descriptor result_edge_descriptor; It seems to me that I have no problems in the serialization process, while I have some issues in the deserialization part. In fact, I have no linking errors until this piece of code is added to my source: #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> #include <fstream> { std::ifstream file(path,std::ios_base::binary); boost::archive::binary_iarchive store{file}; store >> graph; // Deserialization part that triggers the error } I tried to read some questions here and to read the Boost manual, but they didn't solve my problem. In particular, I have this error: Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "void EFull::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, unsigned int)", referenced from: void boost::serialization::access::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive, EFull>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, EFull&, unsigned int) in boostOthers.cpp.o "void GFull::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, unsigned int)", referenced from: void boost::serialization::access::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive, GFull>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, GFull&, unsigned int) in boostOthers.cpp.o "void VFull::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, unsigned int)", referenced from: void boost::serialization::access::serialize<boost::archive::binary_iarchive, VFull>(boost::archive::binary_iarchive&, VFull&, unsigned int) in boostOthers.cpp.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) By the way, I'm serializing and deserializing strings and unsigned ints, "native data types" that seems to be supported by boost: //VERTICES VFull::VFull() { } VFull::VFull(unsigned int i, unsigned int h, unsigned int y, std::string p, std::string o) : id{i}, hash{h}, year{y}, ip{p}, organization{o} { } template<class Archive> void VFull::serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) { ar & 'i'; ar & id; ar & 'h'; ar & hash; ar & '1'; ar & ip; ar & '2'; ar & organization; ar & '3'; ar & year; ar & '/'; } /////// //EDGES EFull::EFull() { } template<class Archive> void EFull::serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) { char waste = 'e'; ar & waste; } /////// //GRAPH SIGNATURE template<class Archive> void GFull::serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) { std::string waste = "GBLS"; ar & waste; } /////// Yes, I am linking my source code to both BGL and Boost's serialization.

[Boost.Hana] how to merge two or more maps
by Matthijs Möhlmann 25 Aug '16

25 Aug '16

Hi, I am looking into the documentation of hana to merge two or more maps, say: #include <boost/hana.hpp> namespace hana = boost::hana; int main(int argc, char **argv) { constexpr auto m1 = hana::make_map( hana::make_pair("key1"_s, hana::type_c<std::string>), hana::make_pair("key2"_s, hana::type_c<std::string>) ); constexpr auto m2 = hana::make_map( hana::make_pair("key3"_s, hana::type_c<std::string>), hana::make_pair("key4"_s, hana::type_c<std::string>), hana::make_pair("key5"_s, hana::type_c<std::string>) ); // Merge two or more maps? constexpr auto result = m1 + m2; return 0; } I'm not sure how to do this, probably taking the first map and for every pair in the subsequent map return an insert? In pseudo code: constexpr result = hana::insert(hana::insert(m1, pair1), pair2); Can someone give me some pointers in the right direction? Regards, Matthijs

Hi, I am using Boost Asio to developed a server, with SSL support. I add async_read_some() function in handshake handler and send handler. Which receiving is OK if I send something to clients, but I can't keep receiving after I stop sending things to client. So I am wondering how can I keep receiving, I know there must be a way to make it, I am new to Asio, can someone help, thanks in advance. ------------------ I won't go

[type_erasure] use of typeid_of with reference any
by Joaquin M López Muñoz 23 Aug '16

23 Aug '16

Boost.TypeErasure docs say template<typename Concept, typename T> const std::type_info & typeid_of(const any< Concept, T > & arg); [...] Requires: Concept includes typeid_<T>. T is a non-reference, CV-unqualified placeholder. which, if my literal reading is right, means that you can't use typeid_of on, say, any<typeid_<>,_self&>, yet the following compiles on GCC #include <boost/type_erasure/any.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/builtin.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/typeid_of.hpp> #include <iostream> using namespace boost::type_erasure; int main() { int x=0; any<boost::mpl::vector<typeid_<>,relaxed>,_self&> a=x; std::cout<<typeid_of(a).name()<<"\n"; } and correctly outputs the name of the "int" type. Is this a bug in the docs or am I missing something? Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz
