Asio acceptor : Multiple client connections on single port
by Amit Sonawane 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

I have a acceptor server which listens to various connections from clients. It creates one server object per client connection. I need the clients to connect to only one IP port of the server. Following the examples in boost I do this: (sample code) boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor m_acceptor; boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver resolver(iosvr); boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver::query query(host.c_str(),boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(port)); boost::asio::ip::tcp::endpoint endpoint = *resolver.resolve(query); m_acceptor.open(endpoint.protocol()); m_acceptor.set_option(boost::asio::socket_base::reuse_address(true)); if( bNoDelay ) m_acceptor.set_option(boost::asio::ip::tcp::no_delay(true)); else m_acceptor.set_option(boost::asio::ip::tcp::no_delay(false)); m_acceptor.bind(endpoint); m_acceptor.listen(); At runtime the server listens to one and only one client connection, the others are not connected at all. What is wrong in the implementation? OR How do I make acceptor to accept multiple connections on the same server port? Any help is highly appreciated.

boost::unordered_map thread safety
by Kenny Riddile 11 Nov '08

This is a simple question, but a quick search didn't turn up any answers. Is it safe for multiple readers to access a boost::unordered_map concurrently? -Kenny Riddile

[format] How to trigger compile-time error for mismatched arguments
by Jeffrey Chang 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hi, I'm using boost::format library, and this may be obvious to those experienced users: is there any way to detect the mismatch of number of expected arguments in a boost::format object? Both of the following statements throw out runtime exceptions (which is correct): std::cout << boost::format ("%s %s") % "Hello"; std::cout << boost::format ("%s") % "Hello" % "world"; It'd be great if this type of parameter-mismatch error can be caught at compile-time, instead of run-time. We use boost::format library extensively for logging, and inevitably there're human errors like this mismatched number of arguments. IMHO, this kind of error should have been detected by compiler at build time, s.t. the developer won't be embarrassed by QA or customers at run-time. Actually, what's even worse is the following that doesn't generate error at all: std::cout << boost::format ("%s %s") % "Hello" % 12345; There's a type-mismatch ('char*' versus 'int') for the second argument, but there's neither compile-time nor run-time error. The output is "Hello 12345", which may be correct, but it may not be what the programmer intended to do. Any way of turning those typo into compile-time error? --- Jeffrey

Boost MPI + Serialization
by Raymond Wan 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hi all, I am using Boost MPI and would like to send user-defined objects between processes. As the Boost MPI tutorial / documentation suggests (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/doc/html/mpi/tutorial.html) I should use serialization and in this document, they show an example class gps_position which is a friend with boost::serialization::access. So far, I understand what's going on, but I don't know what is the next step. The example in the documentation stops there and says that the example continues in the Serialization document. It also just mentions that one could store it in many forms, such as XML on disk, in addition to sending it to processes. If all I want to do is send it between processes, which one of the formats listed in boost/archive/*.hpp should I use? In the Serialization document, it continues by creating a boost::archive::text_oarchive object. But, if I am sending things like vectors of unsigned integers and strings, a binary format should be more compact? Or does this not matter and sticking with the Serialization example is fine? Thank you in advance! Ray

[signals2][review] The review period of the signals2 library is over
by Stjepan Rajko 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hello all, The review period of the signals2 library finishes today, November 10th. I would like to thank the author, Frank Mori Hess, for preparing the library for review and for diligently answering questions, and all those that have participated in the review for their thoughtful comments and reviews. A few more reviews will be coming late - if anyone that hasn't contacted me yet would like to submit a review in the following few days please let me know so I know to wait for your review. I will start working on summarizing the content of the reviews and comments submitted so far, and will post a report within a week. Kind regards, Stjepan

[boost.python] Hello world example of is not working with msvc
by Sandeep Gupta 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hi, I am reasonably sure that this is due to omission in the configuration file. I checkout from the trunk and all compilation went without problem. But the hello world example within the boost.python is failing with error: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_python-vc80-mt-gd-1_38.lib' call "f:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86 >nul link /NOLOGO /INCREMENTAL:NO /DLL /DEBUG /subsystem:console /out:"bin\msvc-8.0\debug\hello_ext.pyd" /IMPLIB:"bin\msvc-8.0\debug\hello_ext.lib" /LIBPATH:"F:\CodeBase\Libs\Python-2.5.2\PCbuild8\win32release" @"bin\msvc-8.0\debug\hello_ext.pyd.rsp" .... .... >From what I can make that LIBPATH doesn't have path to boost_python-vc80-mt-gd-1_38.lib. The lib in question is build at its requisite place. Appreciate any help. Thanks sandeep

Turn off versioning in Serialization
by Brian Nantz 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

I am using serialization split member (save & load) and it works great. I am using a text archive, but I do not want the framework to put the "version header" in the string (e.g. 22 serialization::archive 4 1303 ). I want to simply serialize the string and handle the versioning myself in the load function. Is there a way to turn this off? If not, where can I find detailed documentation on implementing a custom archive or build in another type of serialization (other than binary and xml nvp)? I have looked through mailing lists and documentation but I don't see a detailed description of how to extend the design. Brian
