[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

boost::filtered_graph filtering on vertex color... if I only had a colormap
by Brian Davis 19 Jul '19

19 Jul '19

Lets say I have a graph g (of type graph_t) and a color map (boy I wish I had a colormap): typedef boost::property_map<graph_t, boost::vertex_color_t>::type color_map_t; or is it? auto indexmap = boost::get(boost::vertex_index, g); auto colors = boost::make_vector_property_map<boost::default_color_type>(indexmap); or maybe? auto indexmap = boost::get(boost::vertex_index, g); auto colors = boost::make_vector_property_map<boost::vertex_color_t>(indexmap); or possibly some goop found on the internet? boost::make_iterator_property_map(color_map.begin(), boost::get(boost::vertex_index, data_->g), color_map[0]) or other internet goop? typedef boost::property_map<GraphType, boost::vertex_color_t>::type color_map_t; color_map_t colorMap; boost::color_map(colorMap)) or other internet goop?? std::vector<int> colorMap(num_vertices(g), boost::white_color); so confused... (certainly not surprised why bgl is not a part of stl) Can someone help explain the various types and ways of specifying colormaps and the logic for each way and means? and a function (if I could get that far without VS syntax highlighter going bonkers and gobs of compiler errors.. you know the type): make_pretty(g, colormap ) which colors the graph colormap and a filter struct for boost::filtered_graph<Graph, EdgePredicate, VertexPredicate> (where I wonder why if I only want to filter vertices I have to set boost::keep_all for EdgePredicate... sigh... I know the answer... and also know how long it found me to find/figure out boost::keep_all - and if you are looking for boost::keep_all and found it here... your welcome ;-) ) and modifying (probably incorrectly) boost::filtered_graph example to: template <typename ColorMap> struct vertex_color_filter_eq { vertex_color_filter_eq() { } vertex_color_filter_eq(ColorMap colormap/*, boost::default_color_type c*/) : m_colormap(colormap)/*, m_c(c)*/ { } template <typename Vertex> bool operator()(const Vertex& v) const { return 0 < get(m_colormap, v); //return c < get(m_colormap, v); } ColorMap m_colormap; //boost::default_color_type m_c; }; auto indexmap = boost::get(boost::vertex_index, g); auto colors = boost::make_vector_property_map<boost::default_color_type>(indexmap); // some where here I would call make_pretty(g, colors) typedef property_map<graph_t, boost::vertex_color_t>::type ColorMap_t; vertex_color_filter<ColorMap_t> filter(colors); // boost::filtered_graph<graph_t, boost::keep_all, VertexPredicate> boost::filtered_graph<graph_t, boost::keep_all, vertex_color_filter> fg(g, filter); // Later say if I could get it compile and better if it compiled and worked I could move on and auto color = boost::red_color; typedef property_map<graph_t, boost::vertex_color_t>::type ColorMap_t; vertex_color_filter<ColorMap_t> filter(colors, color); boost::filtered_graph<graph_t, boost::keep_all, vertex_color_filter> fg(g, filter); Maybe if I color them yellow, I can then reach the wizard pull back the curtain and ask how to create a color map... If I only had a color map.

Question on Posix timezone string
by Mats Webjörn/WIKAB 10 Mar '19

10 Mar '19

I'm using Boost 1.66 and use the following code to get a Posix string to set my uCLinux TZ environment variable to get a local time from an UTC time #include <boost/date_time/local_time/tz_database.hpp> #include <boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp> tz_database tz_db; tz_db.load_from_file("./date_time_zonespec.csv"); time_zone_ptr nyc = tz_db.time_zone_from_region("Europe/Stockholm"); auto s = nyc->to_posix_string(); // "CET+01CEST+01,M3.5.0/02:00,M10.5.0/03:00" setenv("TZ", s.c_str(), 1); The odd thing is that my localtime becomes incorrect, and is actually 1 hr wrong on the opposite side of UTC. But, when I read https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/TZ-Variable.html it says "The offset specifies the time value you must add to the local time to get a Coordinated Universal Time value". Not add to UTC time, which seems like the Boost Posix string assumes !!!!! Which explains why 16:00 UTC give 15:00 CET instead of 17:00 which is the correct value, when using localtime_r(). Am I missing something fundamentally, or what? Regards Mats Webjörn Webjörn IngenjörsKonsult AB Solhemsbackarna 75A SE-163 56 SPÅNGA Sweden

Spatial search with boost r tree
by Bozo Vazic 01 Mar '19

01 Mar '19

Hi all, I'm trying to create a boost r tree with packing algorithm that will store 2D or 3D geometric points. This will be applied in side my peridynamic software for what we call "family search". Family search is basically a simple spatial search where each point of the peridynamic mesh (cloud of geometric points) needs to find all points inside it's horizon (horizon is for 2D a circle with a specific radius and for 3D it's a sphere with a specific radius). What I've found so far were examples for distance search using a random point (not the point that is a r-tree member). I did a distance and index check using bg::index::satisfies by passing a method that checks if the index is different and is distance smaller than radius. Also I use within(box) to constrain my search, but I'm not sure that is the correct way to use r tree spatial search for the point that is a member of the same r tree. Because as far as I understand the point in the r-tree knows has the information of boxes in which it is contained, so wouldn't there be a way to query the tree member using using only the horizon value? The reason why I'm asking this question is because I need to define most optimal spatial search so that query times don't take to long. This is important as I can have several million points that need to be constantly queried. Thnx in advance for all the help. Best Regads Bozo Here is my code for 2D search of only one point #include "stdafx.h" #include <boost/function_output_iterator.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/index/rtree.hpp> #include <boost/geometry.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/geometries/point.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/geometries/box.hpp> #include <vector> #include <iostream> namespace bg = boost::geometry; namespace bgi = bg::index; typedef bg::model::point <double, 2, bg::cs::cartesian> point; typedef std::pair<point, std::size_t> pointI; typedef bg::model::box<point> box; typedef std::pair<point, unsigned> value; bool CheckIndexAndDist(pointI i, pointI j, size_t dist); std::vector<uint64_t> res; struct StoreDataCallback { template <typename Value> void operator()(Value const& v) { res.push_back(v.second); } }; int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { std::vector<point> contourCenters; // has some value std::vector<pointI> cloud; double length = 2000; double width = 2000; double dX = length/1000.0; double horizon = 3.015*dX; for(int i = 0; i < length; i++) { for(int j = 0; j < width; j++) { point p; p.set<0>((-1.0 * length / 2.0) + dX + j * dX); p.set<1>((-1.0 * width / 2.0) + dX + i * dX); contourCenters.push_back(p); } } size_t id_gen = 0; std::transform( contourCenters.begin(), contourCenters.end(), back_inserter(cloud), [&](point const& p) { return std::make_pair(p, id_gen++); } ); bgi::rtree<pointI, bgi::quadratic<16> > rtree(cloud); // spatial search box query_box(point(cloud[10].first.get<0>() - 3.2*dX, cloud[10].first.get<1>() - 3.2*dX),point(cloud[10].first.get<0>() + 3.2*dX, cloud[10].first.get<1>() + 3.2*dX)); StoreDataCallback callback; rtree.query( bgi::within(query_box) && bgi::satisfies([&](value const& v) {return CheckIndexAndDist(v, cloud[10],3.015*dX);}), boost::make_function_output_iterator(callback)); return 0; } bool CheckIndexAndDist(pointI i, pointI j, size_t dist) { if( i.second != j.second && (bg::distance(i.first, j.first) < dist)) return true; else return false; }

[Concept] Understanding Boost Concept library
by Robert Jones 28 Feb '19

28 Feb '19

This is a small excerpt from the Boost Concepts library, there's various rather unusual techniques employed in it, with preprocessor tricks and various compiler specific tweeks, but this one has defeated me! What is the purpose of "*********** Model:: ***********" ? Maybe it's just to generate a distinctive diagnostic, but it's very sensitive to exact numbers of asterisks! In general what's going on here is the compiler is checking that the destructor of the Model (which is a concept instantiated with a particular type), can be instantiated, but without ever running the destructor or creating an instance of the Model. struct failed {}; template <class Model> struct requirement<failed ************ Model::************> { static void failed() { ((Model*)0)->~Model(); } }; Any insight appreciated. Kind Regards Rob.

Boost Test thread safety
by Dan Field 21 Feb '19

21 Feb '19

Hi folks: I'm trying to identify whether or not the boost Test library is thread safe in the sense that multiple threads can simultaneously interact with the library's various macros and API. I'm more interested in a single test being multi-threaded than being able to run multiple test cases simultaneously. In early documentation of the Test library (version 1.58.0 and before) , there's a section in the introduction called "Open issues" that indicates that the library is not thread-safe. However, the documentation after 1.58.0 was substantially re-written, and I don't see any discussion regarding thread safety at all. The question remains. is the Test library thread-safe or not? If there is a definitive statement regarding this issue, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

Crosspost from boost, haven't received any reply there, see also: https://github.com/boostorg/test/issues/199 Hello, after my distribution rolled out the upgrade to Boost 1.69 I am unable to compile my application anymore. I try to get the log_level set.

[boost.test] Colors
by Udo Steinbach 20 Feb '19

20 Feb '19

Ahoi! I use boost.test and have now updated to boost v1.68 on Windows, working in standard console. Now Test has colored output, YEAH. The result you see in the picture https://www2.pic-upload.de/img/36193998/no_error_detected.png Notice that I don't use the standard color scheme. With set BOOST_TEST_COLOR_OUTPUT=1 text is light green on gray, bad to read. set BOOST_TEST_COLOR_OUTPUT=0 does black on gray. After that the colors are set to my scheme. Now error result with set BOOST_TEST_COLOR_OUTPUT=1: https://www2.pic-upload.de/img/36193997/failure.png Light red on gray, OK to read, but reset to dark red on gray. I have to use the color command to reset the colors. With command line options it's all the same. Hmmm, how useful can colors be, if the standard output (no error detected) is only one short line?

Problem with boost threads on hpux
by John Parke 20 Feb '19

20 Feb '19

Hi: I am trying to use boost threads with condition variables on hpux with aCC compiler. The compiler has incomplete support of C++11 standard. It does not have <chrono> or <thread> headers. I get the following error message when compiling a program which is using condition variables: "/usr/local/include/boost/thread/pthread/thread_data.hpp", line 344: error #2135: namespace "boost::chrono" has no member "steady_clock" void sleep_until(const chrono::time_point<chrono::steady_clock, Duration>& t) ^ The c++ code is { while (bufferIsEmpty[bufferPairNo]) { boost::unique_lock<boost::mutex> lock (bufferIsEmptyMutex[bufferPairNo]); =>> zb_bufferIsEmptyCondVar[bufferPairNo].wait_for (lock, boost::chrono::microseconds (100)); } } The version of boost I am using is 1.69.0. I build boost with: ./bjam -a -j6 install --build-dir=build address-model=64 variant=release link=static \ threading=multi runtime-link=static \ define=BOOST_THREAD_DONT_USE_CHRONO \ --with-date_time --with-filesystem \ --with-system --with-thread When I look at the boost header file, I see this: boost/thread/pthread/ thread_data.hpp #ifdef BOOST_THREAD_USES_CHRONO template <class Rep, class Period> void sleep_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& d) { hidden::sleep_for_internal(detail::platform_duration(d)); } template <class Duration> line 344 >> void sleep_until(const chrono::time_point<chrono::steady_clock, Duration>& t) { sleep_for(t - chrono::steady_clock::now()); } It appears that the define=BOOST_THREAD_DONT_USE_CHRONO, had no affect. Have I built this correctly, or is there another problem? I would greatly appreciate any help on this. Best regards, John John Parke Alebra Technologies Inc.

[log] Warning LNK4217 when compiling using clang-cl
by Marco Craveiro 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

Hi boost-users, I'm consuming boost 1.69 successfully from vcpkg, on a number of platforms, including MSVC and clang-cl on Windows. However, for some reason, whilst my MSVC is more or less clean of warnings, the clang-cl build is littered with LNK4217's. These appear to be related to boost.log, and more specifically get_tss_data and set_tss_data: warning LNK4217: locally defined symbol ?get_tss_data@detail@boost@@YAPEAXPEBX@Z (void * __cdecl boost::detail::get_tss_data(void const *)) imported in function "public: struct boost::log::v2s_mt_nt6::sinks::basic_formatting_sink_frontend<char>::formatting_context * __cdecl boost::thread_specific_ptr<struct boost::log::v2s_mt_nt6::sinks::basic_formatting_sink_frontend<char>::formatting_context>::get(void)const " (?get@?$thread_specific_ptr@Uformatting_context@?$basic_formatting_sink_frontend@D@sinks@v2s_mt_nt6@log@boost@@@boost@@QEBAPEAUformatting_context@?$basic_formatting_sink_frontend@D@sinks@v2s_mt_nt6@log@2@XZ) warning LNK4217: locally defined symbol ?set_tss_data@detail@boost@@YAXPEBXV?$shared_ptr@Utss_cleanup_function@detail@boost@@@2@PEAX_N@Z (void __cdecl boost::detail::set_tss_data(void const *,class boost::shared_ptr<struct boost::detail::tss_cleanup_function>,void *,bool)) imported in function "public: __cdecl boost::thread_specific_ptr<struct boost::log::v2s_mt_nt6::sinks::basic_formatting_sink_frontend<char>::formatting_context>::~thread_specific_ptr<struct boost::log::v2s_mt_nt6::sinks::basic_formatting_sink_frontend<char>::formatting_context>(void)" (??1?$thread_specific_ptr@Uformatting_context@?$basic_formatting_sink_frontend@D@sinks@v2s_mt_nt6@log@boost@@@boost@@QEAA@XZ) Googling revealed that this problem indicates some issue on exports (e.g. __declsepc...), but I haven't managed to figure out exactly what is causing it.

converting a string to base64
by Sean Farrow 08 Feb '19

08 Feb '19

Hi, Does anyone know of an open source boost.iostreams filter that will convert a string (either std::string, or std::wstring) to/from base64? I know there is some code within beest, but wondered whether this had been wrapped? Similarly, I know that there were issues with boost.serialization's base64 code (from memory, I don't think it padded correctly) and don't think there was a filter for this either. Any help appreciated. Kind regards Sean.

generalize boost macros
by Gero Peterhoff 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

Hello, I have some ideas for config/predef, multiprecision and others. config/predef: What bothers me is the inconsistent nomenclature of several macros. For example, integer: BOOST_HAS_INT128 BOOST_NO_INT64_T float: BOOST_FLOATx_C decimal: ? I think you should definitely generalize that: BOOST_HW_TYPE_AVAILABLE: only if TYPE is supported by the hardware (based on BOOST_HW_SIMD*), but not necessarily by the compiler or selected architecture BOOST_LIB_TYPE_AVAILABLE: TYPE is available from the c++library/compiler For example, float80_t: has HW support on x86 (BOOST_HW_FLOAT80_AVAILABLE is defined), but not on MSVC (BOOST_LIB_FLOAT80_AVAILABLE is not defined then) BOOST_SW_TYPE_AVAILABLE: there is an external emulation of TYPE For example, multiprecision A's complement fixed precision integer (TODO) or "half" by sourceforge Of course, this must be set manually. At least for int/float/decimal 8..512 this should be available. BOOST_HW_MACHINE_SIZE: the real word size of HW BOOST_ARCH_MACHINE_SIZE: the word size of the architecture For example, DOS on AMD Ryzen BOOST_HW_MACHINE_SIZE = 64 and BOOST_ARCH_MACHINE_SIZE = 16 multiprecision/float128_t: there are still many features missing most values in numeric_limits<float128_t> are not constexpr math::constants: i miss log2(2/e/pi/10) etc and i miss BOOST_COMP_VECTOR_EXTENSIONS_AVAILABLE if the compiler supports __attribute__(__vector_size__(...)) and BOOST_COMP_VECTOR_EXTENDED_EXTENSIONS_AVAILABLE if the compiler supports extendet vector extensions (currently only clang/llvm?) and BOOST_ARTIFICIAL __attribute__((artificial)) if supported thx

Boost, MacOSx, and 64 bit
by S. L. Garwood 04 Feb '19

04 Feb '19

I have built boost 1.68 and 1.69 on MacOSX. When I try to use the binary components in a link, I get an error about not being able to find a version for x86_64. Does anyone have any tips? Is there a 64 but specific define for the build? Boost 1.66 from MacPorts seems to be fine but they don’t have 1.68 or 1.69 available (yet). I have a lot of software build using MacPorts so a migration to Homebrew is not really doable at this time.

Windows 64 bit Libraries.
by A Z 02 Feb '19

02 Feb '19

The boost library contains links to 64 bit Windows libraries on the bintray website, at https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.66.0/binaries/. However, these libraries are only for versions of the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler, which do not have compatible bit profiles towards GNU G++, but more particularly with 64 bit Windows TDM. Is it possible for someone at BOOST to build and post libraries for Windows 64 bit TDM C++ for public and professional downloading and usage?
