BOOST_NO_SWPRINTF defined for VC++ 6.0
by Edward Diener 23 Mar '02

23 Mar '02

Why is BOOST_NO_SWPRINTF defined for VC++ 6.0 in the config\compiler\visualc.hpp ? There most certainly is a swprintf in the header files. Is there something wrong with it in VC6 ? If I can't use it in some Boost code which I am modifying slightly for my own purpose, is there something else I can use ?

Why does lexical_cast make a copy?
by Daniel T. 23 Mar '02

23 Mar '02

I noticed that the function declaration of lexical_cast is: template<typename Target, typename Source> Target lexical_cast(Source arg) Namely that arg is a copy of the original source. Is there a specific reason that a copy is made? Why isn't it a 'const Source&' instead? --

Missing timestamp.c in jam_src
by rwhadsell 22 Mar '02

22 Mar '02

I just downloaded Boost 1.27.0 and tried to build jam for my Tru64 Unix system. The make failed, because there is no timestamp.c in the tools/build/jam_src directory.

Hello Jeremy, Thank you for your quick answer. Unfortunately I'm not so experienced with these property maps. Could you give me a hint how to wrap this iterator_property_map around my vector::iterator?

Task groups using boost::thread
by gunnarnl 20 Mar '02

20 Mar '02

After overcoming my initial problems with compiling I have another question. I like very much the thread_group concept. My idea is to create different groups running different type of tasks. E.g. one group deals with user request tasks and another deal with responses from a mainframe etc. In addition, I think it would be good to be able to maximize the number of threads running concurrently in a single group. In this way one could tune the processes regarding to the number of CPUs and so that not one single group gets more CPU usage than others etc. I guess I'm not the first one to think about these things. Does anyone have any ideas about these type of task groups? Although it doesn't nearly contain what I want to do, I got the following test work nicely. #include <boost/thread/thread.hpp> #include <boost/thread/xtime.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <windows.h> template<class T> class thread_task { public: thread_task(T* obj) : m_obj(obj) { assert(m_obj != 0); } virtual ~thread_task() { } void operator() () { m_obj->setup(); m_obj->run(); m_obj->cleanup(); delete m_obj; } private: T* m_obj; }; class my_task { public: my_task() {} void setup() { std::cout << "setup " << GetCurrentThreadId() << std::endl; } void run() { std::cout << "Start sleeping in thread " << GetCurrentThreadId() << std::endl; boost::xtime xt; boost::xtime_get(&xt, boost::TIME_UTC); xt.sec += 1; boost::thread::sleep(xt); std::cout << "Woke up " << GetCurrentThreadId() << std::endl; } void cleanup() { std::cout << "cleanup " << GetCurrentThreadId() << std::endl; } }; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { boost::thread_group threads; int i; for (i = 0; i < 10; ++i) { my_task* aTask = new my_task(); thread_task<my_task> new_task(aTask); threads.create_thread(new_task); } threads.join_all(); return 0; } By the way, is there an operation in boost::thread to get the current thread id?
