[lambda] Does Boost.Lambda support local variables?
by Robert Jones 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

If so, can anyone point me at the relevant bit of documentation. If not, are there some 'standard' techniques to produce a similar effect? Many Thanks, Rob.

class composition
by Hicham Mouline 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

hello, There is an example listed in "C++ template metaprogramming" to generate a class with its members from an mpl sequence: template <typename T> struct wrap { typedef T value; }; typedef mpl::vector< type1, type2, type3 > member_types; mpl::inherit_linearly< member_types, mpl::inherit< wrap<_2>, _1 > >::type generated; but then, the generated class did not look like this: class C { type1 t1; type2 t2; type3 t3; }; Can one do that with BOOST_PP and sequences from preprocessor libs instead? regards,

stream error thrown in boost serialization
by Lee MacDonald 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Guys, I'm having a bit of trouble with boost serialisation using boost 1.35 I am writing out my objects to a text file fine. I see the text_oarchive destructor get called and I get the required new line added to the end of the file. However when I read the objects back in, they get created fine, but as the archive reaches the end of file, it throws a stream error. I have tested the example code and that works fine, so I'm stuck at the mo. Unfortunately i can't try writing/reading the objects as binary easily. I presume the archive is trying to read past the end of the stream, but I don't know why as the newline exists? I've tried the following to make sure the stream is good, but archive still throws. while(stream.good()) { archive >> object; } Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Random Numbers using Boost.
by Atul Kulkarni 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Hi All, I am using boost::random for generating random numbers I am using the default quick start code given up on the web page. I want to generate random numbers between range 1 - n so that they do not repeat themselves for at least n numbers. 1. Is it possible using boost::random? 2. If it is possible what do I need to do except the below code. == boost::mt19937 rng1; boost::uniform_int<> six1(1,30); boost::variate_generator<boost::mt19937&, boost::uniform_int<> > die1(rng1, six1); for(int i=0; i < 29; i++) { cout<<die1()<<endl; } == Thanks in advance. -- Regards, Atul Kulkarni Teaching Assistant, Department of Computer Science, University of Minnesota Duluth Duluth. 55805. www.d.umn.edu/~kulka053

Boost.Parameter: copy constructor gets "mistaken" for constructor(const ArgPack& ) in parent class.
by er 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Hello, I have a situation which I can summarize as: #include <boost/parameter/keyword.hpp> #include <boost/parameter/name.hpp> #include <boost/parameter/parameters.hpp> #include <boost/parameter/preprocessor.hpp> BOOST_PARAMETER_KEYWORD(tag, xx) struct A{ template<typename ArgPack> A(const ArgPack& arg):x_(arg[xx|0]){} A(const A&){} A& operator=(const A& that){ if(&that!=this){ x_ = that.x_; return *this; } } unsigned x_; }; 3 copy constructors are shown below, on the last of which works. However it's really the first one that I'd like to get to work. struct B : public A{ template<typename ArgPack> B(const ArgPack& arg):A(arg){} B& operator=(const B& that){ if(&that!=this){ A::operator=(that); return *this; } } //B(const B& that):A(that){} //no match for 'operator[]' in 'arg[(+<unnamed>::xx)->boost::parameter::keyword<T>::operator| [with Default = int, Tag = tag::xx](((const int&)((const int*)(&0))))]'| //B(const B& that):A(static_cast<A>(that)){} //fails too B(const B& that):A((xx=that.x_)){} //requires knowledge of A's members, not satisfactory. }; Any suggestion, please?

more Boost::Units questions
by Mark Volkmann 12 Jan '09

12 Jan '09

My biggest issue is that my recent software development experience has involved using Java much more than C++ and I'm trying to learn how to use a C++ library that makes pretty heavy use of templates. Is there a tutorial somewhere that shows examples of doing basic things with this library? The kind of things I'm trying to figure out are: - What is the difference between a "measurement" and a "quantity"? Is it that the former doesn't specify a unit? - Does the library provide functions for converting between different units? ... for example, converting from miles to kilometers. If not, is there a recommended way to do this? - Can I only add quantities that have the same unit or can I add ones with different units and the library will handle conversions for me? - How can I extract the numeric value from a quantity? - How can I extract the unit type from a quantity? Thanks! --- Mark Volkmann
