Hi all, I have a state like this, which has two parameters in it's constructor except the ctx. I want to know how to pass these two arguments to the constructor, when do state transition? I have tried this: transit< RepeatedPlayingState , 1, 2>(); But it cause compiling error? How to do this? I want to pass something to a new entered state. Thanks! class RepeatedPlayingState: public state< RepeatedPlayingState, PlayingState > { public: RepeatedPlayingState( my_context ctx , long start_pos, long end_pos) : my_base( ctx ){ context< PlayerFsm >().player_.PlayFromTo(start_pos, end_pos); } }; Best Regards Hill

newbie fail: Too many levels of symbolic link
by Gary Pajer 22 Mar '11

I have a c++ shared library, and I'd like to use the classes and functions in python. So I'm trying boost.python. I'm on Ubuntu 10.10, and I've downloaded the boost tarball. I think I've followed the instructions here<http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/python/doc/building.html>and (more to the point) here<http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/more/getting_started/unix-variants.htm…>to the letter. But when I execute "sudo ./bjam" I get dozens upon dozens of failures. For example, "g++" -ftemplate-depth-128 -O3 -finline-functions -Wno-inline -Wall -pthread -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_PYTHON_SOURCE -DBOOST_PYTHON_STATIC_LIB -DNDEBUG -I"." -I"/usr/include/python2.6" -c -o "bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4.5/release/link-static/threading-multi/numeric.o" "libs/python/src/numeric.cpp" ...failed gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4.5/release/link-static/threading-multi/numeric.o... gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4.5/release/link-static/threading-multi/list.o In file included from ./boost/python/detail/config.hpp:15, from ./boost/python/detail/prefix.hpp:14, from ./boost/python/list.hpp:8, from libs/python/src/list.cpp:5: ./boost/config.hpp:35: fatal error: ./boost/boost/config/compiler/gcc.hpp: Too many levels of symbolic links compilation terminated. The file references are different, but the error is always the same. What have I done wrong? thanks, gary_p

[asio] What have to be done to receive UDP broadcast packets?
by Michael Schulze 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Hi list, I struggle with setting up an asio udp socket on Linux that is able to receive broadcasts. I managed the sending of broadcasts, but receiving seems to have a problem. I also managed sending and receiving of broadcasts with the native socket api of Linux. However, in the project we use asio to have portability across platforms and therewith we need to receive broadcast with asio too. The question is: How should an asio udp socket be setup in order to receive broadcasts? I did the following: udp::socket socket(io_service); socket.open(udp::v4()); boost::asio::socket_base::broadcast option(true); socket.set_option(option); socket.bind(udp::endpoint(address_v4::any(),8888)); and then I started receive_from. What is wrong with this? I did not receive the sent broadcast. Regards, Michael

Cannot dlclose() module when including exception_ptr.hpp in GCC 4.5
by ichramm 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Hi I'm having and issue with boost and gcc 4.5, I'm posting here before posting in the gcc mailing list 'cause it only happends if using boost. Thre following problem was tested with boost 1.44 and boost 1.46 (single and multi threaded) Situation: - Environment with GCC 4.5.2 (kernel 2-6-36 and 4.6.37, glibc 2.11 and 2.12 - C application that loads/unloads dynamic modules using dlopen/dlclose - C++ dynamic module compiled/linked agans boost::thread, and including <boost/exception_ptr> Problem: - dlclose() always returns zero, so the module is never unloaded Including <boost/thread/thread.hpp> or any other boost header works fine This only happends with GCC 4.5, so it could be a problem related to gcc, but I dnot know it yet. I'm attanching 3 small test files, so you can check if this happens on your machine, just execute 'make run' After reading the test application you say 'remove the while loop!', but the right behavior is that the second call to dlclose() should fail with 'shared object ot open'. Thanks in advance -- Saludos! :wq PS: Escuse my poor english :P

[asio] recommended way of handling unix signals ?
by Avi Bahra 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

I have been looking at the boost asio 1.45 docs but there is no mention of signal handling ? Is this is a known deficiency of asio, or are there any any recommended ways of handling signals in a asio server ? Best regards, Ta, Avi

boost::asio close TCP connection cleany
by Marco Piacentini 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Hy..I've seen in the tutorial that client side disconnect is called simply by a break in the read loop. I would like to know which is the step-by-step instruction to close correctly a TCP connection (both server and client side) and where I have to put them. I've seen the close and shutdown functions, but I don't know where call them. Finally...what I can do when an EOF error happens?? thank you..
