Boost and Windows CE - does it?
by Steve Folly 14 Nov '03

14 Nov '03

Hi, I know the real answer is probably to just 'try it', but I thought I'd ask to see if anyone else has tried this. We have an application framework which makes extensive use of boost, particularly shared pointers. Currently, we can build Win32 and Mac Carbon applications. Has anyone successfully built applications utilising boost for Windows CE? In particular, we've just started looking at the eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 compiler and the Pocket PC 2003 SDK. -- Regards, Steve.

And here's what's missing.... I'm using the /Za switch (Disable Language Extensions). But I'm a bit puzzled. I would have thought that /Za (a more standard compliant mode) would not fail.

Compiler error with STLport-4.6

Hello, I get this internal compiler error below when compiling boost-regex (from cvs today 11 nov 2003) using STLport-4.6. The error do not show up when using STLport-4.5.3 though. Any ideas?

While the Win32 exceptions will be caught and thrown there will be no unwinding of the stack, i.e. destructors for automatic variables will *not* be called. So the code will not work correctly in case of an exception. The approach I've seen is to call abort() instead of throwing, which is probably not a very good one. > but don't know what to do with template error? > > Can anybody help in this? > Also can it be confirmed that its possible to port it on Win CE? Not with EVC++. I'm afraid it's something of a waste of time to try to compile standard C++ code with it. There has been some work to port GNU C++ to WinCE but it is incomplete and so far as I know only covers SH3 and MIPS whereas the most popular architecture for WinCE now seems to be ARM.

[BGL] Problem with color maps for undirected_dfs_visit
by Tarjei Knapstad 14 Nov '03

14 Nov '03

I'm trying to implement a DFS visitor and using it with undirected_dfs_visit, but I'm getting a segfault which relates to the edge color map. I've made the following test app for illustration: **************** START CODE **************** #include <vector> #include <boost/graph/adjacency_list.hpp> #include <boost/graph/undirected_dfs.hpp> using namespace boost; struct Types { typedef adjacency_list<vecS, vecS, undirectedS, property<vertex_color_t, default_color_type>, property<edge_color_t, default_color_type, property<edge_index_t, int> > > GraphType; typedef std::vector<default_color_type> ColorVec; typedef color_traits<default_color_type> Color; }; int main() { Types::GraphType g(6); add_edge(0,1,g); add_edge(1,2,g); add_edge(2,3,g); add_edge(2,4,g); add_edge(4,5,g); Types::ColorVec v_colors(num_vertices(g), Types::Color::white()); Types::ColorVec e_colors(num_edges(g), Types::Color::white()); default_dfs_visitor visitor; undirected_depth_first_visit(g, 0, visitor, make_iterator_property_map(&v_colors[0], get(vertex_index, g)), make_iterator_property_map(&e_colors[0], get(edge_index, g))); }; **************** END CODE **************** The code crashes in undirected_dfs.hpp line 73 the first time it's trying to access a color from the edge color map: EColorValue uv_color = get(edge_color, *ei); Valgrind turns up a lot of illegal reads/writes to the edge_color_map as well, so I'm guessing that I've screwed up on the colormap creation. Could anyone point out my error? Also, is this an error that could be caught compile time by adding some sort of concept check? Thanks in advance for any help! Regards, -- Tarjei

Boost.Thread: inlined constructor in thread_specific_ptr block application start up
by Roland 14 Nov '03

14 Nov '03

Dear Boosters, I am trying to understand how to use the TSS Thread local storage, and came upon a strange behaviour. I do not know if I am doing something wrong here. Maybe someone can help. I am running on Win2K, VC6.0. (GUI Interface programm type) In my main thread I have: struct oops { // inline oops(); // commented out, won't run oops(); // this one starts up ~oops(); private: int i; }; oops::oops() { i = 0; } oops::~oops() { } boost::thread_specific_ptr<oops> value; I am not assigning to value anywhere. Now when I try to start my programm (I tried only the debug version) my GUI never comes up. When I break into with the debugger I can see, that the programm is sitting somewhere in the main message loop (PumpMessage), but never receiving any messages. When not having the inlined version, behaviour is ok. Any help appreciated. Thank you, Roland

Building Regex++ lib on Pocket PC using Embedded VC++4.0
by Reuti＠sdc.canon.co.in 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

Has anyone tried building regex++ lib for PPC using EVC++? I can build it using VC++6.0 using the .mak files supplied with it.But I am getting errors and warnings. Error is regarding the use of typename keyword in lib source and warning is about C++ Exceptions unwinding capability. I replaced C++ try, catch by Win32 __try , __except but don't know what to do with template error? Can anybody help in this? Also can it be confirmed that its possible to port it on Win CE? Thanx in advance. Reuti

travelling salesman for BGL ?
by Philippe Guglielmetti 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

I'm looking for a free "travelling salesman problem" solver. Does anyone know if something exists for the Boost Graph Library ? I found nothing in the book... Is anybody interested in porting existing code, for example http://www.math.princeton.edu/tsp/concorde.html on BGL ? -- Philippe Guglielmetti - www.dynabits.com
