bug in rational.hpp
by whastingsnj 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

operator /= can produce an unnormalized result in Version 1.27.0 For example, boost::rational<long> x(1,1); boost::rational<long> y(-1,1); x /= y; //at this point x.den = -1 !!!

boost 1.27.0, type_traits, and CVS
by David B. Held 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

I just downloaded the latest version on the web site. I've never really used CVS before, but I tried to grab what appeared to be all the relevant files for type_traits. Now, when I try to use boost::function, I get all this: /usr/local/include/boost/function/function_base.hpp:151: parse error before `>' token /usr/local/include/boost/function/function_base.hpp:153: template argument 1 is invalid /usr/local/include/boost/function/function_base.hpp:153: `type' is not a class or namespace /usr/local/include/boost/function/function_base.hpp:153: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `type' with no type Which points to a line that contains is_stateless<>, which I assume is part of type_traits. So, could someone, in simple terms that a 5-year-old could understand, tell me how to get the latest version of type_traits from CVS? Do I actually need to download CVS software, or can I do it all through the web interface? Thanks. Dave [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

location of jam executable
by obhiee 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

hi, i d/l'ed the 1_27_0 and have successfully built the jam executable. i went through the documentation for build but am still unclear as to the location from where jam should be run. do i just copy jam into the top level directory where the files were extracted to and run it from there after setting BOOST_ROOT? some posts in this list conveyed the impression that it should be run from within the source library for each library. i find that confusing. isn't it the intent(?) of jam to be able to build the code wherever it may be located provided that the appropriate entry has been made into BOOST_BUILD_PATH/BOOST_ROOT? i apologize since this post is probably somewhat off-topic. sincerely, abhishek.

Iterator Adaptor?
by David Brownell 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

I have a hunch that this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find the answer. I have a struct similar to: struct MyStruct { int i; char c; }; And a functor similar to: struct MyFunctor { void operator()(int i) { //Do something with i } }; Given a container of MyStruct objects, how can I use iterator_adaptor to use MyStruct::i with MyFunctor? Something like: std::vector<MyStruct> v; std::for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), MyFunctor()); I have overridden the dereference method in default_iterator_policies to return the integer, but am at a bit of a loss where to go from here. Am I on the right track? TIA for your help! David Brownell

Adding -lrt -lpthread -lposix4 to the LINKFLAGS for <threading>multi makes an app that links and runs passing the tests. - Dale.

REPOST: boost.bind usage
by Markus Schöpflin 25 Mar '02

25 Mar '02

Since my first post using the web interface seems to have been lost, I'm trying again via email... Is it just me or is it my compiler (MSVC6SP5)? The following code gives me an error. Whats wrong? #include <boost/bind.hpp> #include <functional> using boost::bind; void main() { bind(std::greater<int>, _1, _2)(1, 2); } main.cpp(8) : error C2275: 'std::greater<int>' : illegal use of this type as an expression TIA, Markus

boost-current and gcc 3.x on Linux
by Peter Simons 25 Mar '02

25 Mar '02

I once again cvs-updated my copy of the Boost sources and tried to build them on a gcc 3.0.4 Linux machine -- without success. The complete output of the targets that failed to build lays at: http://cryp.to/boost-build-log.txt I would be really nice if someone could help me getting this build to work.

AmigaOS port of Boost 1.27.0

I've started porting Boost 1.27.0 to AmigaOS for use in a project of mine and I have a few additions and diffs to contribute. I've created a platform file so other AmigaOS users can at least start using the Boost out of the box. 1) boost/config/platform/amigaos.h // (C) Copyright Boost.org 2001.

My only concern is the one I mentioned above. [CRLF line endings] The CVS command-line client automatically puts the appropriate line ending for your platform. This should solve your CRLF/LF problem. -- Jim
