ASIO vs Beast DynamicBuffer use
by Cristian Morales Vega 02 Jan '19

02 Jan '19

Hi, I have just noticed that while ASIO passes DynamicBuffers as && (https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_68_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/async_r…) Beast passes them via reference (https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_68_0/libs/beast/doc/html/beast/ref/boost__…) I'm guessing this happens because ASIO thinks you are going to use dynamic_string_buffer/dynamic_vector_buffer as DynamicBuffer, while Beast thinks you are going to use flat_buffer/multi_buffer. In the second case doesn't make sense to give ownership of the DynamicBuffer to the initiation function because then you would not be able to look at the received data when the operation completes. Since ASIO DynamicBuffer implementations are just adaptors over string/vectors that you keep, it makes sense to move those adaptors, you still keep the string/vector with the data. Have I got it right? But this raises the question: what should I use in my own initiating functions? Regards.

function template with a universal reference to a specific type
by Ireneusz Szcześniak 01 Jan '19

01 Jan '19

Hi, I'm writing to ask a C++ question, not specifically Boost-related, but this list is the best place I know. How can I write a function template, which has a parameter of the universal reference to a specific type? I can write a function template like this: template <typename T> void foo(T &&t) { // The primary template implementation. cout << "Primary: " << __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ << endl; } And so I can call this function with an expression of any value category, and any type, cv-qualified or not, like this: int main() { foo(1); int i = 1; foo(i); const int ci = 1; foo(ci); } In my code I need to provide different implementations of foo for different types (and these types are templated). How can I accomplish that? Best, Irek

Hi again, everyone. When trying to build Boost 1.69.0 after having placed my installation of Python 3.7.1 above the one of Python 2.7.15, I got the error mentioned in the title of this email. It says at the end, " ...failed updating 4 targets... ...skipped 8 targets... ...updated 2381 targets... " The project-config.jam file I used is attached to this message.

Re: [Boost-users] [cfe-dev] [llvm-dev] Error: ISO C++17 does not allow 'register' storage class specifier [-Wregister], when building Boost 1.69.0
by Osman Zakir 25 Dec '18

I'll build using C++14 mode, then. I wonder if Python 3.7.1 has this issue as well? If it doesn't, then maybe Boost should switch over to that version of Python. ________________________________ From: Matthieu Brucher <matthieu.brucher(a)gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2018 2:56 PM To: Oleg Smolsky Cc: Craig Topper; Osman Zakir; clang developer list; cfe-users(a)lists.llvm.org; llvm-dev(a)lists.llvm.org Subject: Re: [cfe-dev] [llvm-dev] Error: ISO C++17 does not allow 'register' storage class specifier [-Wregister], when building Boost 1.69.0 The issue comes in part form the Python headers that have the keyword.

[Asio/Beast] Any non-obvious reasons for no bind_executor_and_allocator?
by Sorin Fetche 23 Dec '18

23 Dec '18

Hi, As I'm looking to modernize an older C++03 project based on Boost.Asio to use C++17 and the net TS api, I am not ready yet to give up on using lambdas for completion handlers. Boost.Asio and Boost.Beast have some utilities for correctly implementing asynchronous composed operations but from them only asio::bind_executor seems to be applicable to lambdas. And the problem is that it only associates an executor with a (lambda) object; I didn't find any utility for associating an allocator too. Could there be any reason for a utility that associates both an executor and an allocator with an object to not work correctly when implementing asynchronous operations? Or is it just that this utility has not been implemented yet? I did come across the paper "Networking TS Associations for Call Wrappers"[1], but I didn't see any mention there about bind_executor or something similar for allocators or why this kind of approach wouldn't work. I would be very happy if I could write something like: asio::post( socket_.get_executor(), bind_executor_and_allocator_from( handler_, [...] { self_.handler_(...); })); and, unless I'm missing something, such a utility could be implemented similarly to the existing asio::bind_executor. Thank you, Sorin [1] http://open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2018/p1133r0.html

This is the error I get when trying to build Boost 1.69.0 with LLVM: "error: ISO C++17 does not allow 'register' storage class specifier [-Wregister]". I've also sent an email about this to the LLVM developer mailing list. I've attached the project-config.jam file to this message. Please let me know how to fix this. Thanks in advance.

[uuid] constexpr uuid from string and ""_uuid literal
by Tobias Loew 23 Dec '18

23 Dec '18

Hi, while searching for constexpr GUID from string generators, I found https://gist.github.com/AlexBAV/b58e92d7632bae5d6f5947be455f796f . Since I still work with VS 2015, I wrote a C++11 constexpr version incl. boost-uuid generators. If there's interest adding this to boost uuid, please have a look at https://github.com/tobias-loew/constexpr-GUID-cpp-11 Tobias -- Sent from: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Boost-Users-f2553780.html
