boost units and single-precision floats
by Carel Combrink 19 Nov '21

19 Nov '21

Hi, I have aliases for radians and degrees that use float as the storage type. When I convert between these two units I see the assembly promote the values to doubles and then back to floats. How can I make sure that all operations and conversions stay in floats? PS: I would not be surprised if I have defined my aliases or/and my conversion functions incorrectly. My Code: === using radians_f = boost::units::quantity<boost::units::si::plane_angle, float>; using degrees_f = boost::units::quantity<boost::units::degree::plane_angle, float>; degrees_f to_degrees(const radians_f& angle) { return static_cast<degrees_f>(angle); } radians_f to_radians(const degrees_f& angle) { return static_cast<radians_f>(angle); } === >From compiler explorer I see the following assembly instructions: https://godbolt.org/z/Gnjr54dn6 cvtss2sd - Converts a single-precision floating-point value in the “convert-from” source operand to a double-precision floating-point value in the destination operand. mulsd - Multiplies the low double-precision floating-point value in the second source operand by the low double-precision floating-point value in the first source operand. cvtsd2ss - Converts a double-precision floating-point value in the “convert-from” source operand to a single-precision floating-point value Any help will be appreciated.

Iterate intrusive list without container?
by John W 24 Oct '21

24 Oct '21

With a traditional "hand-rolled" doubly-linked list, if you have a reference to a Node, you can traverse from that node to the end of the list easily. Just check for "pNext == NULL" to know when you're at the end. You don't need any reference to the owning "list container" object. However, I can't seem to accomplish the same with boost::intrusive::list. Traversal with an intrusive::list's iterator is done STL-style, and for that you need to compare to the container's ".end()" value. I am aware of the "s_iterator_to" function[1], which can statically get an iterator from a node, but there doesn't seem to be any way to statically get a usable ".end()" value to compare to. There is also "container_from_end_iterator"[2], which gives the container if you have "end()" available already — not quite what I want, but I guess shows that end() is intimately tied to the container. I also notice that if I have an iterator to the last element in a list, and I increment it (++iterator), no error is given. But if I try to dereference it, I get garbage data. Peeking into the implementation, from what I can tell, boost::intrusive::list is actually a circular list, with a special "root node" that the container owns, and which represents the "end". So, iterating beyond the end gives you that root node. I guess my questions are: (1) Is my analysis above correct? I feel I might have missed something wading through all the templates, and the docs I've found don't discuss these implementation details. (2) Is there any way to accomplish what I want? That is: iterating from an arbitrary node to the end of the list, *without* a reference to the owning container? (3) [aside] If the answer to the above is "no", does anyone know what the rationale is for this design choice? It seems odd that such a basic feature of a traditional hand-made intrusive list would be dropped if there were no benefit. Thanks -John [1] https://github.com/boostorg/intrusive/blob/f44b0102b4ee9acf7b0304b3f5b27dde… [2] https://github.com/boostorg/intrusive/blob/f44b0102b4ee9acf7b0304b3f5b27dde…

Conversion from exception_ptr to shared_ptr
by rajesh daggumati 19 Oct '21

19 Oct '21

HI, please help me to solve below issue. Shared pointers are used in my code. class Exception : public virtual std::exception,public virtual boost::exception { --- }; class ExceptionTestException : public Exception { --- }; boost::shared_ptr<Exception> exceptionptr_t; try { Boost_Throw_function(ExceptionTestException("Hiii")); } catch(...) { boost::exception_ptr exceptionptr = boost::current_exception(); try { boost::rethrow(exceptionptr) } catch(boost::exception &e) { //here i need to assign this 'e' to shared pointer but this e is not in heap so then how to assign this e to sharedptr(exceptionptr_t). 1 way is : boost::exception *ep = new ExceptionTestException(e); exceptionptr_t(ep); here we know that exception_ptr is having ExceptionTestException but in some cases, we dont know which type of excepiton we have in exception_ptr in runtime. then how to assign to shared_ptr
