Linking problem - boost 1.51
by Daniel Santos 07 Oct '12

07 Oct '12

Dear list, I'm starting with boost (Boost.Asio) and I'm following the tutorial available at Boost.Asio web-page. I'm stuck at part 5 (Timer.5) because I'm getting the following linker error: *timer_5.cpp:(.text+0xb3): undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()' * *timer_5.cpp:(.text+0xe1): undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()' * *collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status* I'm linking boost_system, boost_thread and pthread (I compiled the boost libraries and at some point I thought that I was including .hpp files from a different version of the libraries but I specified the paths of both .hpp and libraries and the problem remains). The system runs GNU/Linux 64bits (Fedora 17) with GCC 4.7.2 and boost 1.51.0. Any idea? Thanks i advance, -- Daniel

[Sandbox - endian] Why is endian still in sandbox?
by Nathaniel J Fries 07 Oct '12

07 Oct '12

A fairly novel (at least when put up against more intricate labours like asio, filesystem, and their like) project which appears to be finished and would be a very useful companion to existing libraries sits in the sandbox. Is there a reason for this?

[exception,serialization] transporting exceptions
by Brian Budge 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

Hi all - I like that boost::exception provides a mechanism to copy exceptions. This can be used to transport an exception across thread boundaries, which is nice. I'm running a program that can optionally start nodes using MPI to do back-end computations. I'd like to be able to "copy" the exception from one node to another. Are there any existing tools for something like a serialization of these kinds of exceptions? In non-MPI mode, I'd like to transport the exception across thread boundaries, pass it through some functions (causing actions to be taken along the way), and then finally to rethrow the exception. In MPI mode I want all of that PLUS, in place of one of the function calls, I'd like to transport the exception across MPI in some way. Are there any semi-automatic tools already in existence that will get me this (or close)? Or do I need to implement boost serialization for my entire exception hierarchy? If I do the latter, it seems I will need to operator new the exception, and will not easily be able to know when I can delete in a catch? Thanks, Brian

Trouble w/ fruchterman-reingold
by eric 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

I'm seeing a weird problem in fruchterman_reingold.hpp that after the displacements are calculated for every vertex, it gets down to the loop where it updates the positions (starting on line 327), and all the displacements are (0,0) by that point (they had been sensible values up in the calculation loop). Any idea what I could be doing to cause that? Here is my code: struct spring_attractive_force { template<typename Graph, typename T> T operator()(typename graph_traits<Graph>::edge_descriptor, T k, T d, const Graph&) const { return d; } }; struct magnetic_repulsive_force { template<typename Graph, typename T> T operator()(typename graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor, typename graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor, T k, T d, const Graph&) const { return 1 / (d * d); } }; typedef adjacency_list<listS, listS, undirectedS, // Vertex properties property<vertex_index_t, int, property<vertex_position_t, point> >, // Edge properties property<edge_weight_t, double> > Graph; enum {A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H}; simple_edge triangular_edges[14] = { {A, B}, {B, C}, {C, A}, {D, E}, {E, F}, {F, G}, {G, H}, {H, D}, {D, F}, {F, H}, {H, E}, {E, G}, {G, D} }; Graph g(&triangular_edges[0], &triangular_edges[13], 8); // Generate (x,y) coordinates for every node // - Randomly layout vertices of graph minstd_rand gen; rectangle_topology<> rect_top(gen, -25, -25, 25, 25); random_graph_layout(g, get(vertex_position, g), rect_top); // - Run Fruchterman Reingold algorithm on them typedef square_topology<> Topology; Topology topology(gen, 50.0); fruchterman_reingold_force_directed_layout(g, get(vertex_position, g), topology, attractive_force(spring_attractive_force()). repulsive_force(magnetic_repulsive_force()). force_pairs(all_force_pairs()). cooling(linear_cooling<double>(100))); -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Trouble-w-fruchterman-reingold-tp4636494… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

04 Oct '12

Hello, I am writing a function using templates in C++.I want to find the type of variable that is being to the function. I was wondering if I could use the Boost TypeTraits library or is there another library that I can use. I would highly appreciate any help. Thanking in advance. Vishal CodeSnipet: Template<typename T> Void setTag(T myVariable) { If(T == short) { Do something; } If(T == long) { Do something; } }

Most reviewers were satisfied with the library documentation and interfaces. Issues: These were points brought up by reviewers. The authors are free to accept or reject any of these at their discretion. - A number of minor documentation corrections. - Automatically deduce the correct algebra from the state type. - Use a default initial step size. - Allow breaking out of the algorithms In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Re: [Boost-users] [odeint] Can odeint integrate a 2-dimensional function?

I don't think this is possible. This sound like integration of a known function. Odeint is devoted to solve ordinary differential equations. Karsten

[process] how to suggest bugs/fixes for boost.process?
by Brian Budge 04 Oct '12

04 Oct '12

Hi all - I've started using boost.process despite the fact that it is not an official boost library. I've founds some cases that don't compile or give warnings, and I'd like to log a bug with possible fixes somewhere. Given that the library is not officially in boost, how should I go about this? Thanks, Brian

Moving an std::string into a boost::thread in C++03
by Adi Shavit 04 Oct '12

04 Oct '12

Hi, I'm using boost 1.51 on multiple platforms and compilers without C++11. In my main thread, I have a very long, expensive to copy, std::string veryLongString, that I need to pass to a new thread for processing. After the new thread is created I have no more use for veryLongString, hence I'd like to *move *it into the boost::thread ctor. Obviously, if veryLongString was created as a shared_ptr<std::string> then I could just *copy* the shared_ptr into the thread ctor, but it wasn't, so I'd need to copy it anyway. How can I [boost::]move() veryLongString into the boost::thread ctor (probably using via boost::bind)? Is this possible? Thanks, Adi
