Re: [Boost-users] [LockFree] a queue of std::shared_ptr?
by chris 15 Feb '13

Hello All, If we can't use shared_ptr in a lockfree queue, how can I share data between different queue ? I have some data that I have to be put in different queues and I want to avoid that I have to copy this data for each queue. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/LockFree-a-queue-of-std-shared-ptr-tp464… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Question about installing and using boost library.
by pan yi 15 Feb '13

15 Feb '13

Hi all, I'm a beginner to use boost library for my c++ coding project. After I include the <boost/algorithm/string.hpp> in my cpp file and compile the code, the compiling error indicates that: fatal error: boost/algorithm/string.hpp: No such file or directory I search on internet and knows that I need to install some boost library. But which library should I install? (I tried to install the whole library with "sudo apt-get install libboost*", but it doesn't work.) Can any one help me? I'm compiling and executing c++ on ubuntu Version12.04 environment Thank you so much. Best Regards Pan

So you can choose the file via preprocessing logic, but not alter the fact that some file is to be included. So... given an empty file and a file with #include M1 #include M2 you can use recursion to include an arbitrary number of different files based on preprocessor logic. --John

[GIL] About `packed_channel_value` (possible improvement)
by TONGARI 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

Hi, I took a look into "channel.hpp" and found that packed_channel_value is not very efficient in construction. There are: packed_channel_value(integer_t v) { _value = static_cast< integer_t >( v % num_values ); } // I have no idea why this exists, seems OK to remove it template <typename Scalar> packed_channel_value(Scalar v) { _value = static_cast< integer_t >( v ) % num_values; } IIUC, "v % num_values" above could be replaced with a much cheaper "v & low_bits_mask_t<NumBits>::sig_bits_fast". That is: packed_channel_value(integer_t v) : _value(v & low_bits_mask_t<NumBits>::sig_bits_fast) {} What do you think? Am I missing some point? Thanks.

[ASIO] Any HTML5 video streaming server with boost asio?
by Goran 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

Hi all, do anybody knows something about HTML5 video streaming with boost::asio? I've looked into the tutorials and would like to use the html server examples to integrate into my app. So far anything is clear but video streaming is something I've never done. Are any resources out there? Thanks in advance! G.

Documentation Install
by Robert Patterson 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

I download a tar ball, configured, built and installed (thank you). I then removed the entire build tree and realised I no longer had the docs (linked via libs/index.html). Obviously I can explode the tar ball again, but is there a simple way of keeping the docs without the whole tree - something like ./make installdocs ? Thanks Robert Patterson

Boost.Move BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE macro
by luke 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

Due to GCC 4.7.2 and lower not supporting a change in template deduction rules as explained in the answer below http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14808663/stdunordered-mapemplace-issue-w… the following code will not compile: #include <utility> class test { public: test() =default; private: test(test const&); }; int main() { std::is_convertible<test&, test>::value; }; For the same reason, it is not possible to use classes which use the BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE in situations where libstdc++ uses std::is_convertible, for instance when using piecewise construction in std::unordered_map::emplace() (I came across the issue when making an unordered_map of boost::file_mapping) As deleting the copy constructor fixes the issue (i.e. test(test const&) =delete;), would it be at all possible for BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE to do the same for compilers that support the syntax?

[Contract] Eagerly waiting...

Hi Lorenzo (or anyone who knows) AFAICS your contract library seems to have been approved for a while, but not made it into a release. Do you have an ETA for this? Thx, Rob.

Communication between QThread and boost threads
by ustulation 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

The Gui is in Qt and Api is in boost. The Gui is meant to sit on top of Api. One of the functions of Api is to do network level data management, process data in certain ways and communicate with the Gui (ie., bridge Gui with other end of Api). To keep the GUI from freezing Api does it's work in a separate thread. If both Gui and Api had used Qt, communication would have been easier with cross-threaded signal-slot mechanism of Qt. Api emits and returns immediately and vice-versa. So none would be blocked unless explicitly specified (*Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection*). I've been using boost only since a while back as it was required to code new Api in boost. How do i achieve this mechanism in *boost <--> Qt communication*? Api is going to be header+static_library and so Gui and Api will produce single executable. I have to support Linux, Windows and Mac minimum. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Communication-between-QThread-and-boost-… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
