Dijkstra Visitor - Accessing the priority queue
by Jonas Gabriel 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

Good morning, I'm trying to make a single pair shortest path function using the goal-directed search technique based on dijkstra_shortest_paths and Visitors. In some point when the target vertex is processed, I would like to exit dijkstra_shortest_paths.To do that I 'm thinking trying to empty the priority queue. Can I access the priority queue inside a visitor using something like an extern declaration, since none of the Dijkstra Visitor's methods gets the priority queue as an argument ? With regards, Jonas Gabriel

How to "splice" function arguments?
by Zeljko Vrba 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

I have the following situation with parallel overloaded functions: void f(X *x) | void f(int g, X *x) { { | { Impl<false>::f(-1, x); | Impl<true>::f(g, x); } | } template<bool F> struct Impl { typedef Detail<F> detail; void f(int g, X *x) { // CODE X *t = detail::smth(g, x); // CODE } }; In the "false" case, the argument g of Impl::f is not used and I want to get rid of it in compile-time as an optimization. The rest of the CODE is completely identical. In other words, I want to transform the "false" case, at compile-time, to the following: void f(X *x) { Impl<false>::f(x); } template<> struct Impl<false> { typedef Detail<false> detail; void f(X *x) { // CODE X *t = detail::smth(x); // CODE } }; Now, I could manually duplicate all of the code in Impl::f(int, X*) into Impl::f(X*) and remove the extra argument in the call to detail::smth. Doing such specialization manually seems _very_ inelegant and error-prone (I'm not really a fan of copy-pasting the code :)) Is there a better way; ie. doing it automatically? If so, how? It is acceptable to manually overload the top-level f() function, as it has no other code except the dispatch to Impl::f. I want full compile-time solution; ie. I do not want the stack space for the unneeded integer parameter ever to be allocated. [The code for the "false" case will be called on every function invocation, so YES, performance DOES matter even without apriori profiling.] Signatures in the implementation of Impl and Detail are flexible and I can change them if it helps solving the problem. The only thing that I do not want to change are the signatures of top-level f() function overloads. Thanks, Zeljko.

[boost.test] Provoking a core-dump
by Zeljko Vrba 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

I'm using the boost minimal testing facility - mostly because I do not want to build full boost. [I spent one day about an hour trying to figure out how to build a 64-bit version on Solaris with SunCC and failed. So I gave up. Besides, minimal testing facility is enough for me.] Is it possible to configure BOOST_CHECK or BOOST_REQUIRE to behave as assert? BOOST_REQUIRE throws an exception which eventually gets caught and the test just prints "failed". That's not what I want. I want that the message is printed and abort() immediately called so that I can inspect the core-dump and debug the problem. A quick&dirty fix is to add something like the following on top of each test: #ifdef BTEST_OVERRIDE #define BOOST_REQUIRE assert #define BOOST_CHECK assert #endif Is there another possibility? Ideally, there would be a command-line switch to toggle this behaviour at runtime. So the first run of tests in "normal" mode just gives a quick overview of everything, and another "diagnostic" mode (running with a hypothetical "-abort" switch) calls abort() as soon as any CHECK or REQUIRE fails.

Boost test thread safety
by Chris 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

I have been working for a while on trying to diagnose whether my library or the boost test library is causing many of my thread issues. I hear that the boost test is not thread safe, is the correct? How incomplete is the thread safety and is there a time span on when it will be achieved? -Thanks for the current thread Chris

Boost.Test internal framework error: unknown reason
by Ole Christian Weidner 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

Aloha, I have a strange problem when running the Boost Unit Test Framework on MacOS X (Intel). I'm using Boost 1.33.1 built from source with gcc 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367). Compiling and linking of my tests works fine with: /usr/bin/g++-4.0 -arch i386 -Wl,-all_load -L$BOOST_LOCATION - lboost_unit_test_framework ... but whenever I try to run my test application I get a not very meaningful error message (the same code works fine on Linux and Windows): [Session started at 2007-06-11 13:06:27 -0500.] SAGA C++ Conformance Tests Boost.Test internal framework error: unknown reason saga_test_suite_v2 has exited with status 200. The error seems to occur somewhere within the framework initialization - the entry point (test_suite * init_unit_test_suite (int argc, char* argv[])) is never reached. Any ideas how to track down the error? Are there any command line arguments to make the framework's output more verbose? Thanks, Ole

problem... maybe boost could help
by Lukasz 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hello, I'm fairly new to boost and don't know all of the functionality. I have been using the serialization library, read about mpl, signals and that's about it. Maybe someone will have an idea if there is anything in boost that i could use to solve the following problem (or any other solution). I'm working a an Agent framework, and at this point, specifically on an event (messaging system). The basic layout is the following (what concerns the messaging part): The framework contains Agents and Behaviors. They all need to communicate with each other. Both of these classes derive from an interface EventReceiver, which declares, amongst other things, a pure virtual ProcessEvent(Event * event) function. Specific behaviors and agents are obviously derived from the base ones. All events are derived from the base Event class (to allow users to create their own events with whatever information they need in there). The main messaging hub is a class MessengerService, which contains two maps, the first one relates static UUID's of events to UUID's of receivers , and the second receiver UUID's with a list of actual events of type Event*. The basic use case is: a behavior calls a register function in MessengerService to add itself as a receiver for a certain type of event (register/unregister can happen at anytime). At anytime, a behavior/agent can create an event, and call a send function, which adds it to the list of events that are pending for a given receiver (if a receiver was registered for this event type). As all agents/behaviors are ticked, a "Monitor" is moved to the current agent/behavior. The monitor queries the messenger service for all pending events destined for the current agent/behavior, and calls a processEvent function on the agent/behavior passing it the event as an argument. The problem is here. I want agents/behaviors to add handlers for different event types that they registered for, i.e. class SomeBehavior: public Behavior { ... processEvent(EventTest1 & event); processEvent(EventTest2 & event); ... } Since the events were registered, i know that the correct handlers exist in the most derived class types (there will also be a forwarding scheme for unregistered or broadcast events). The problem is that i only have a pointer to the base class (EventReceiver) and to the base class of the event (Event). I can't cast directly because i don't know the type to cast to. Also, i don't want to add virtual functions for all possible events to the base class, because that would mean that users would have to play around in the base class (framework) every time they add a new event. Lastly, i wanted to avoid having a general processEvent(Event & event) function and then have the users "switch" on the event type. I solved part of the problem (the first half) by adding a "MostDerviedHelper", which looks sort of like this: template<class Derived> class MostDerivedHelper { .... void dispatchEvent(Event * event) { // Do dispatching here m_derivedPointer->processEvent(*(event->This())); } private: Derived * m_derivedPointer; } Each derived type has a helper, which obviously contains the correct most derived type (since it's itself). The problem now, is that i don't know what to cast the event to so that it calls the correct handler. I can't add the same type of helper to event, because then i would have to pass it the receiver derived type through a template, but since it would have to be a template, i can't call it using my base class event pointer (can't create templated virtual functions). I tried adding a virtual function called "This()" to all events, which would return the derived classes' this pointer, but eventhough it's the correct type, i still need to cast it (which i can't) since it has to be resolved at compile time. I read quite a few things about double/multiple dispatch (in Loki for example), but it's not quite the solution i'm looking for because a usual implementation uses a callback, and that would require that i make my handlers static. MPL is not much of a help either because it's based on static polymorphism, and what i actually need is dynamic. I thought of using boost function & boost bind combined with a double dispatch scheme, but this doesn't work either because then i can't serialize it (i could re-perform the binding after a restore, which i already do for boost::signals, but it's a hassle). So, i'm pretty much out of ideas. I think to sum it up, what i would sort of need is: template<class ReceiverType, class EventType> class Dispatcher { ... send(ReceiverType * receiver, eventType * event) { receiver->processEvent(event); } } In this situation, i would already have all the correct types. The problem is that i can't get all this info at the same time. I also thought about using the curiously recurring template pattern as such: template<class Derived> class Event { template<class derivedReceiver> dispatch(derivedReceiver, Derived event) { .... } } This would work, except that since all events now must specialize to some type of base, i can't use a base class pointer to store in my map, i.e. i can't store all of my events in a map. If anyone has some brilliant idea as to how this can be done (if it can), then i would appreciate the input.

[wave] preprocessing error
by Ovanes Markarian 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hello Hartmut, I have a question to you. I got a header file with an error. The content of a file looks like: #ifndef SOME_GUARD #define SOME_GUARD ... some content #endif SOME_GUARD As you see #endif SOME_GUARD is wrong, standard defines that #endif is followed by a newline. Unfortunately wave threw an exception. Calling what member on the std::exception instance caught resulted in the string: boost::wave::preprocess_exception I spent some time to search where that happened and which line was guilty. Is there any way for you to write the file and line which caused the error? I assume smth bad happens inside the wave lib, since I even can not compare curren and end iterator tokens. With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian

ASIO: multiple threads, single io_service
by Andrej van der Zee 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hi, I have some (beginners) question about the example server3-porgram that ships with the library. It uses multiple threads with a single io_service. In the method server::run() this happens: std::vector<boost::shared_ptr<boost::thread> > threads; for (std::size_t i = 0; i < thread_pool_size_; ++i) { boost::shared_ptr<boost::thread> thread(new boost::thread(boost::bind(&boost::asio::io_service::run, &io_service_))); threads.push_back(thread); } for (std::size_t i = 0; i < threads.size(); ++i) threads[i]->join(); But when are the threads actually scheduled? Does this happen by the shared io_service? Are the registered callback methods for async_read, async_accept, etc executed in the threads? Also, are there any tradeoffs that I should know off for using the single io_service vs io_service-per-thread approach?

[ptr_container] How to transfer ownership from smart_ptr to ptr_container
by Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hi! Is there any smart_ptr and ptr_container that can transfer ownership of pointer, to avoid useless copy-construction and destruction of the object. More less scenario can be like that. 1. smart pointer handles pointer to the huge data. 2. pointer is transfered via signal to the object that has queue of them. 2a. remark not all object are going to the queue, so there is a need to keep them in smart pointer. 3. Queue sends away pointer, or internally destroys (respectively to demand of another signal in the program. More less the simplified draft is shown below. Maybe I have to use vector <shared_ptr <T> > instead of ptr_container? Best regards. #include <boost/ptr_container/ptr_vector.hpp> #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> #include <iostream> class Foo { public: Foo (int const i) : i_ (i), j_() { ++counter; ++crcounter; std::cout << "Foo (int)" << '\t'; print_counter(); } Foo (Foo const & f) : i_ (f.i_), j_() { ++counter; ++crcounter; std::cout << "Foo (Foo)" << '\t'; print_counter(); } ~Foo() { --counter; std::cout << "~Foo () " << '\t'; print_counter(); } void print (std::ostream & os) const { os << i_; } static int counter; static int crcounter; static void print_counter() { std::cout << "No. Foo = " << counter << " No. created = " << crcounter << '\n'; } private: int i_; int j_[10000]; }; int Foo::counter = 0; int Foo::crcounter = 0; std::ostream & operator<< (std::ostream & os, Foo const & f) { f.print (os); return os; } int main() { using namespace boost; using std::cout; ptr_vector<Foo> pvf; Foo * pf = new Foo(7); cout << *pf << '\n'; pvf.push_back (pf); pf = new Foo(9); cout << *pf << '\n'; pvf.push_back (pf); shared_ptr<Foo> spf (new Foo(11)); cout << *spf << '\n'; pvf.push_back (new Foo (*spf)); spf = shared_ptr <Foo> (new Foo(13)); cout << *spf << '\n'; pvf.push_back (new Foo (*spf)); cout << pvf[0] << '\n'; cout << pvf[1] << '\n'; cout << pvf[2] << '\n'; cout << pvf[3] << '\n'; pf = new Foo(pvf[0]); pvf.erase(pvf.begin()); cout << *pf << '\n'; spf = shared_ptr <Foo> (new Foo (pvf[2])); cout << *spf << '\n'; delete pf; } -- |\/\/| Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki \/\/

Need help understanding boost::operators::dividable
by Scott, Steven 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

I'm sure the answer to this is out there somewhere, but I'm having trouble finding it. (wearing flame-retardant clothes...) I want to use boost::operators::field_operators to generate all the mathematical operators to allow Vector/scalar arithmetic. Everything works fine except for dividing scalars by vectors. Class Vector looks like this: class Vector : public std::vector<double>, boost::field_operators<Vector, boost::field_operators<Vector, double> > { // required operator+=, -=, *=, /= defined here. }; Now if I write: double x(3.0); Vector v(5), w; v[0] = 1; v[1] = 2; v[2] = 3; v[3] = 4; v[4]=5; w = 3+v; // works fine w = v+3; // works fine ... // subtract and multiply work on both sides w = v/x; // works fine w = x/v; // fails... I think the failure happens because of the way operator/ defined for mixed types something like this: T operator/(U u,T t) { T ans(u); ans/=t; return ans; } which is not what I need. Is there a way I can change the way operator/(double,Vector) works in this one case, but keep the really convenient definitions generated by field_operators otherwise?

Fwd: [OT] [metaprogramming] Importance of order of delarations/definitions.
by Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hi! Could anyone tell me if there is any example where in e.g. metaprogramming there is a need of strict order of declarations and definitions of templates? Theoretically there should not be a problem, but maybe there are some tricks where order influence on fitting types and/or for lookup of specializations. Generally the question is related to the fact, that GCC force user to put typedefs and declaration/definitions in proper order before any usage of types. And I am looking for the example which points why we can NOT mix all - when the order is important. Regards. -- |\/\/| Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki \/\/

building boost with only one set of libraries
by frederic.bron＠alcan.com 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

I have spent so much time to find how to build boost with only one combination of release/debug, multithreading, static/shared... that I want to record the method in the archive for other potential users. By default boost is build 16 times which corresponds to all combinations of: - release/debug - multithreading on/off - static/shared link - runtime static/shared link It takes ages to compile and we get roughly 1 giga-bytes of data. In general you need only one combination of these options but it is not very well documented how to set these options. Here is a simple mean: unix like environnement: $ configure --prefix=path_to_the_intallation_directory edit Makefile: BJAM_CONFIG=link=static threading=multi runtime-link=shared --layout=system LIBS=release $ make install nocygwin environnement (build cygwin independant library from cygwin, can be used in CodeBlocks or with g++ -no-cygwin): build bjam from cygwin (boost-jam-3.1.14.tgz): $ chmod 755 build.bat; ./build.bat gcc-nocygwin build boost: $ full_installation_path_of_bjam/bjam link=static threading=multi runtime-link=shared --toolset=gcc-nocygwin --prefix="windows_path_to_the_intallation_directory" --layout=system release install F.

[signals] How to connect method with more arguments (pointers) to signal

pool allocator size 0

Hello, the following program crashes in the last line (deallocate) with VC8: #include "boost/pool/pool_alloc.hpp" int main() { boost::pool_allocator<int> a; int* i = a.allocate(0); a.deallocate(i, 0); } I didn't find any annotations about restrictions regarding the allowed size, neither in the c++ standard nor in the boost docs. I thought, calling allocate is the same as calling array new with 0 (gives back a pointer != 0 which must be array deleted). Is the boost pool allocator not fully standard compliant? -- Sebastian Pfützner s.pfuetzner(a)onlinehome.de ICQ-ID: 39965036

ambiguous overload using boost::variant
by Paul.VanHagen＠shell.com 20 Jun '07

Hello, I'm having difficulty compiling the following code fragment using the Intel 9.1 C++ compiler. This little program mimics part of our application and the way we make use of the boost::variant class template. The build log follows at the end. The program itself is totally meaningless, but it just demonstrates a problem in either the compiler or in boost. The strange thing is that this program compiles nicely without any problem using the gcc 3.3.1 compiler on Linux. I appreciate any help.

Porting to vc8
by Rupali.Praveen＠barclayscapital.com 20 Jun '07

20 Jun '07

Hi I have inherited some code that uses the boost1300\boost\numeric\ublas , specifically the matrix constructs. We are now porting our code from vc6 to vc8. The current library seems to be giving a lot of compilation errors, like: ../../ThirdParty\boost1300\boost\numeric\ublas\matrix_expression.hpp(781 ) : error C2027: use of undefined type 'boost::numeric::ublas::vector_matrix_binary<E1,E2,F>::const_iterator2' ../../ThirdParty\boost1300\boost\numeric\ublas\matrix_expression.hpp(603 ) : see declaration of 'boost::numeric::ublas::vector_matrix_binary<E1,E2,F>::const_iterator2' ../../ThirdParty\boost1300\boost\numeric\ublas\matrix_expression.hpp(700 ) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::numeric::ublas::vector_matrix_binary<E1,E2,F>::const_iterator1' being compiled ../../ThirdParty\boost1300\boost\numeric\ublas\matrix_expression.hpp(103 4) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::numeric::ublas::vector_matrix_binary<E1,E2,F>' being compiled Do I need to download the latest version of boost for the porting?

[bind] overloaded function troubles
by Michael Marcin 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

I have a windows compiler that is a derivative of cw 9.4 that is complaining when trying to compile the following #include <boost/bind.hpp> struct a { void foo(int) {} void foo() {} }; void bar() { boost::bind( &a::foo, _1 ); } the actual error is: ### mwccsym2.exe Compiler: # In: C:\Subversion\boost-RC_1_34_0\boost\boost\bind.hpp # From: bind_test.cpp # ---------------------- # 1633: ::bind_t< result_type, F, list_type >( F( f ), list_type( a1 ) ); # Error: ^ # illegal implicit conversion from 'boost::_bi::bind_t<const void (&)(void *const , const void *const , void *const , const void *const , int), boost::_mfi::dm<void (const void *const , int), a>, boost::_bi::list1<boost::arg<1>>>' to # 'boost::_bi::bind_t<const void (&)(const void *const , int), boost::_mfi::dm<void (const void *const , int), a>, boost::_bi::list1<boost::arg<1>>>' # (point of instantiation: 'bar()') # (instantiating: 'boost::bind<boost::arg<1>, void (const void *const , int), a>(void (a::*)(int), boost::arg<1>)') Changing the definition to struct a { void foo() {} void foo(int) {} }; lets it compile but this is not a general solution as this fails to compile: void bar() { boost::bind( &a::foo, _1, 0 ); } I've uploaded a full minimal example to my website including the compiler in question if it helps. http://www.mikemarcin.com/misc/mwccsym/bind_overload.zip Thanks, Michael Marcin

Whilst I think you're correct that per-TU control is the most often needed requirement: it's actually the hardest of all to provide without violating the dreaded "one definition rule". The only solution I can think of involves making the special function macros - which also means we can't overload them - and then internally mangling the function names according to the policies in effect (in other words the same as the current proposal). Perhaps more interesting, and based on the current proposal is per-namespace policies: #include <boost/math/special_functions.hpp> typedef something my_policy_type; namespace mynamespace{ BOOST_MATH_DECL_POLICY_SPECIAL_FUNCTIONS(my_policy_type); } Then "mynamespace::tgamma(x);" would use my_policy_type to determine it's behaviour. If you an unnamed namespace then this could be used in place of a using declaration, to bring a specific set of functions into the scope of the current TU only. > While (mostly) global objects may be evil, something along the > lines of standard streams and their interaction with locales and > facets may perhaps be easier to deal with.

That's true. However, I now have the meta-programming code that allows a function to reset policies that it knows aren't relevent to it to their defaults. Policy objects also get "normalised" internally to reduce code bloat, so: tgamma(x, policy1); and tgamma(x, policy2); are one-line inline forwarders that will call the same template instantiations internally, if there are no relevent differences between policy1 and policy2. Thanks for the feedback, John.

Re: [Boost-users] [mpl]pop_front function on integral sequence
by Ovanes Markarian 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

[...] > Thanks, iterator_range works fine. What's not very nice to me is the T typename is lost for empty >sequence and after using a metafunction, so vector_c is not really usable for metaprograming, its >just a macro to easier define a vector. Well... Type never gets lost in C++ ;) What about: typedef mpl::vector_c<float, 2.0,2.1,2.2> my_vector; BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same< mpl::front<my_vector>::type::value_type, float > )); vector_c initializes a vector with integral_c derived type (like mpl::int_ or mpl::bool_) and value specified, so in this example we have most probably an mpl::vector of integral_c<float, 2.0>,..., integral_c<float, 2.2>. Anyway applying a front metafunction to any element of vector will return some integral_c<float, X> specification. Since you are interested in type contained in integral_c you can access it via integral_c<float, X>::value_type. Therefore: mpl::front<my_vector>::type::value_type ^^^^ ^^^^^ + => integral_c<float, X>::value_type + => integral_c<float, X> result in correct type resolution stored in mpl::vector. Hope that helps. With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian

[preprocessor] Argument list conversion
by Server Levent Yilmaz 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

Hi, I have the following fun problem, seemingly simple, but couldn't find the trick. The objective is to convert a given argument list to some other one or more useful argument list. Each of the arguments are copied verbatim into the other list unless it is specified to be a SPECIAL_TYPE. For example the following two-argument macro function call: FUNKY_MACRO( 5, ( double*, SPECIAL_TYPE, const char[], SPECIAL_TYPE, int) ) would spit out: (double*, const char[], int, special1, special1); (double*, special1, const char[], special1, int, special2, special2); note that, in the first generated tuple SPECIAL_TYPE is replaced by some other text, and moved to the end of the tuple. In the second one, same replacement occurs and some yet other text is appended repeatedly at the end, same number of times as SPECIAL_TYPE appears in the original list. Any ideas how to do this (or part of it) with the incredibly amazing Preprocessor library? thanks -- Server Levent Yilmaz Mechanical Engineering University of Pittsburgh

ASIO: When part of official Boost release?
by Andrej van der Zee 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

Hi, My apologies if this already has been asked, but I was wondering why the ASIO network library is not part of the standard distribution of Boost and doesn't appear on the Boost website. Will it ever be? And if so, from which Boost release is this targeted? My best regards, Andrej ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Answers - Got a question?

Preprocessor thingy
by Johan 't Hart 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, I don't know if boost has a solution for my problem, or there is just something simple I miss... I've been struggling with some preprocessor things. I'm trying to use it for versioning. Here is the problem: I've got these defines: #define VERSION_MAJOR 5 #define VERSION_MINOR 4 #define VERSION_BUILD 3 #define VERSION_SUBBUILD 2 Sometimes I just need a string like: "5.4.3.2". I do it like this: #define STRINGER_(s) #s #define STRINGER(s) STRINGER_(s) #define VERSION_STRING_1 \ STRINGER(VERSION_MAJOR) "." \ STRINGER(VERSION_MINOR) "." \ STRINGER(VERSION_BUILD) "." \ STRINGER(VERSION_SUBBUILD) So VERSION_STRING_1 is "5.4.3.2" Now I need a string like: "5.4.3b". (Note the 'b'. When VERSION_SUBBUILD == 3, I want it to be a 'c' etc) How do I do this in a preprocessor command???? The char is simple, its (VERSION_SUBBUILD+'a'-1). How do I add that to a string?? It just looks so simple, I can't stand I'm not finding a solution! I'm hoping someone could help me! Regards Johan

[spirit] MS compiler ICE when using push_back_a
by Christian Henning 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi there, I'm using boost 1.34 and MS VC7.1 . The following code lets my compiler ICE. #include <vector> #include <boost/spirit/core.hpp> #include <boost/spirit/actor/push_back_actor.hpp> using namespace std; namespace sp = boost::spirit; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { vector<int> n; bool ret = parse( "12", sp::int_p[push_back_a( n )] ).full; return 0; } The reason is the push_back_a actor. Is that a known issue or am I doing something wrong? Regards, Christian

Error using boost::thread for the first time.
by Simon Pickles 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi there, I am using boost::thread for the first time as part of boost::asio. I am trying to compile the chat_client.cpp example. When I uncomment the threading line, it won't link. Here's the line in question: boost::thread t(boost::bind(&boost::asio::io_service::run, &io_service)); and heres the error: chat_client.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall boost::thread::~thread(void)" (??1thread@boost@@QAE@XZ) referenced in function _main chat_client.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: void __thiscall boost::thread::join(void)" (?join@thread@boost@@QAEXXZ) referenced in function _main chat_client.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall boost::thread::thread(class boost::function0<void,class std::allocator<class boost::function_base> > const &)" (??0thread@boost@@QAE@ABV?$function0@XV?$allocator@Vfunction_base@boost@@@std@@@1@@Z) referenced in function _main I think I've done everything required. I've installed all the boost libraries with the Boost Consulting installer. I've added a few defines too: #define BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB // For linking with boost.thread not supported by BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK #define BOOST_THREAD_USE_DLL // Verbose #define BOOST_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC All to no avail. I'm not getting the 'boost-*.lib not found' message..... Just missing functions! Anyone any advice?

[serialization]
by Manuel Jung 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, I still got some starting problems with the boost::serialization library. I want to serialize a shared_ptr to my own polymorphic class. I'm building my own networkprotocol and the basic idea is a kind of "header"-class which with a shared_ptr<data_base> which can point to a lot of different data structs, which are polymorphic children of data_base. This "header"-class is then serialized and send to another peer. But how should this peer get the real type from the shared_ptr<data_base>? Which child is it pointing to? I can get the name with "typeid()", but i cannot get the type through that way. I would like to get the type from it automaticly without using some case-conditions, so i only have to add a new child of data_base and can use it, without changing any networkprotocol related code. Kind Regards Manuel Jung

BGL python bindings: copy.copy(g) adds spurious properties
by John Reid 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, When a graph is copied via copy.copy(g), extra vertex and edge property maps are added. import boost.graph as bgl g = bgl.Graph() prop = g.add_vertex_property('prop') from copy import copy g_copy = copy(g) print g.vertex_properties.keys() print g_copy.vertex_properties.keys() Output: g's vertex properties: ['prop'] g_copy's vertex properties: ['object', 'prop'] This property named 'object' contains the same values as the 'prop' property. Is this a bug in the pickling support? I have the latest version from SVN. Thanks, John.

[boost] build of boost 1.34.0 with STLport
by LoadCom 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

hello, I downloaded the new boost 1.34 and try to build it. I found the doc of the new release have been improved a lot. But still with one thing I'm confused - with version 1.33.1, I can build the libs using VC6, VC7.1 or VC8.0 with different toolset files, and I also can use seperate toolset files if I want to build with STLport. In 1.34, I found only a msvc.jam and there's no STLport counterpart. Can anybody give me an explanation on this and tell me how to make a STLport build? I'm using MSVC7.1 on Windows XP. Thanks in advance. -------------- LoadCom 2007-06-16

[asio] some design questions
by Yuval Ronen 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

Hi. I'm looking at the Design page of the asio docs (http://tinyurl.com/2b5afn) and several questions come to mind: 1. The "Proactor" page has Advantages/Disadvantages section, but it doesn't specify in comparison to what (advantages and disadvantages are always compared to something). I'm getting the impression that it's compared to the Reactor approach. Is this correct? 2. The "Platform-Specific Implementation" page notes that when using select/epoll/kqueue, demultiplexing is performed in one of the threads that calls boost::asio::io_service::run(). I assume that when this thread is awaken to perform some task, one of the other threads that called run() on the same boost::asio::io_service takes it position as waiting on select/epoll/kqueue. Is this correct? 3. The "Platform-Specific Implementation" page also notes that "An additional thread per io_service is used to emulate asynchronous host resolution. This thread is created on the first call to either boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver::async_resolve() or boost::asio::ip::udp::resolver::async_resolve()." So I guess that if I resolve() rather than async_resolve(), then no thread is created, and the actual resolving is done in the thread that called resolve()? I think all these notes would be a good addition to the docs. Thanks.

The classes are defined in my namespace "water". When i put the script into the code, it fails to find boost::bind in the source file! THe compiler searches for bind in the namespace "water::boost". But without the script it compiles fine! Someone got a clue whats wrong? Kind Regards Manuel Jung

How to Compile boost on AIX using xlC
by dx 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

Hello, I'm having a hard time compiling boost on AIX using xlC. 1) My general question, is what steps have people taken to compile boost on AIX using xlC? - did you modify makefiles, and use gmake ? - did you use bjam instead ? - what changes are needed to various makefiles, etc., to compile on AIX with xlC ? - did you use gnu compatible xlc ? 2) Currently I'm attempting to build regex right now on AIX with xlC I could compile it easily using gcc: gmake -fgcc.mak But I can't using xlC. I've modified generic.mak, to use xlC as the compiler, and it doesn't get that far. I'm using this within the */regex/build directory. Warning messages that I've encountered so far include the following: (these are just snippets) The incomplete class "gcc_3_2_wknd" must not be used as a qualifier. A non-type template parameter cannot have type "const bool" After the warning messages are printed out, gmake returns Error 1: gmake: *** [xlC/boost_regex-xlC-1_33_1/cregex.o] Error 1 Thanks for any help.

Bug in Graph Library Docs?
by David A. Greene 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

At http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/adjacency_list.html, there's a table of how graph operations affect iterators and descriptors. That table states that add_vertex will not invalidate vertex descriptors when the vertex list is a vecS. I recently discovered that this is wrong for Boost 1.33.1. That makes sense because adding an edge could cause the vector to be reallocated and therefore all vertex descriptors to become invalid. I would assume this holds for edge descriptors and iterators as well. Is the documentation wrong or has this changed in 1.34? -Dave

Boost Asio Error
by Simon Pickles 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Hello, I've just discovered boots::asio. Looks good but got a small problem. I'm basing my client on the chat_client example, but having a problem. In the example, command line arguments are passed to the chat_client specifying server details. My question is, what is the format of the argv in the example? I have modified things a little to fit into my system, but am not sure what to pass the chat_client class. I have tried passing "localhost", but am still getting an error here: boost::asio::io_service io_service; tcp::resolver resolver(io_service); tcp::resolver::query query(DEFAULT_SERVERNAME); // DEFAULT_SERVERNAME = '127.0.0.1' tcp::resolver::iterator iterator = resolver.resolve(query); // <<< error here, in 'implementation' - not defined! m_connector = boost::shared_ptr<CConnector>( new CConnector( io_service, iterator ) ); // <<< this is just a version of chat_client.hpp Sure I am missing something simple.... thanks for any advice Simon -- http://www.simonpickles.com --- http://www.squirtualreality.com

Unable to build Boost.Serialization library from boost 1.34 with vacpp.
by Joe Davidson 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

We are using IBM's XLC compiler (version 8.0) on a LInux/PPC system. I have been able to compile boost 1.33.1 with XLC without any showstopping problems. (The Boost.Wave library has some minor issues I think) Attempting to build boost 1.34.0 with the same version of xlc results in multiple compilation failures. I'm providing one of the build errors in hopes that I can start getting some pointers as to where to look. I can dig up more compilation errors if needed. I did have to patch the vacpp.jam file to override the default location of the xlc compiler. There should be a better way to set the compiler location right? Suggestions?

Hello, I think I have found something, but I would like you to confirm, in the get_helper (boost/serialization/shared_ptr.hpp), if the variable sph (See code: shared_ptr<void> sph;) represent the most derived class, and if we have mulitple inheritance, then we cannot cast (See code: return * static_cast<H *>(sph.get());) a void * to a base class. It has to be cast to the derived class first and then to the base class. What do you think? template<class Archive, class H> H & get_helper(Archive & ar){ extended_type_info * eti = type_info_implementation<H>::type::get_instance(); shared_ptr<void> sph; ar.lookup_helper(eti, sph); if(NULL == sph.get()){ sph = shared_ptr<H>(new H); ar.insert_helper(eti, sph); } return * static_cast<H *>(sph.get()); } Thanks again, Michel :) ----- Message initial ---- De : Robert Ramey <ramey(a)rrsd.com> À : boost-users(a)lists.boost.org Envoyé le : jeudi 14 juin 2007, 18 h 43 min 51 s Objet : Re: [Boost-users] Problem with boost serialization: shared_ptr I looked over your code at it looks like it shoud be OK to me.

[regex] undefined references to boost::reg_expression
by Ken Klose 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

I've been able to build this program without problem on one RHEL4 machine with boost 1.33.1. But on another machine it gives a ton of errors (see below). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ken #include <iostream> #include <string> #include "boost/regex.hpp" using namespace boost; using namespace std; int main() { string _stream("1000_===_1181763561847_===_false");

[Function][bind]Using function to store arbitrary class and arbitrary function
by Hughes, James 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Hello all, I have a quick question that I hope some of the experts on Function and Bind can answer. I'll give a quick précis of what I would like to do. We have an event system in our code. I would like to set this up so that any particular event can be 'attached' to arbitrary classes and functions in those classes. For example, a "Print" Event may need to call an arbitrary function in an arbitrary class (or a number of these). Therefore the event server needs to have a list of all these class/function pairs for each event type. I am pretty sure I can achieve that with a combination of boost::function and boost::bind. I see how I can use function if I know what the class type is..I would need to store the function and a this pointer in to the event server, but the this pointer would need to be to a specific type - that specified in the boost::function defn. Is there any way to make the this pointer of an arbitrary type such that the function call can be made to any arbitrary function in any arbitrary class? Sorry, I don't have a code snippet to help explain - that's what I'm trying to figure out!! There may well be better ways of doing what we need - those thoughts also gratefully received (nb.

multi_index_container and hash_key lookup with boost boost-1.33.1
by Andrej van der Zee 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Hi, I have a problem with a hash-index to a member of type std::vector<std::strings>. With boost 1.34 it compiles and runs find, but it fails to compile with 1.33! Unfortunately I do not have the luxury to change boost-version. Is there any way around this? I defined my multi_index_container like this: typedef std::vector<std::string> keys_type; struct entry_type { keys_type keys; bool operator<(const entry_type& e) const { ... } }; typedef boost::multi_index::multi_index_container< entry_type, mi::indexed_by< mi::hashed_unique< mi::tag<hash_index_tag>, mi::member<entry_type, keys_type, &entry_type::keys> >, mi::ordered_non_unique< mi::tag<pred_index_tag>, mi::identity<entry_type> > > > mi_entries_type; And get the following compile-error (see the bottom): /usr/bin/g++ -m64 -pipe -Wall -fPIC -O3 -DNDEBUG -I../framework

[date time] performant?
by John McMahon 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi, I've been browsing the online documentation for the date time library, which is a model of good documentation (unlike boost::test, for example) and it looks pretty well designed. I wanted to know if there have been any discussions or benchmarks of how efficient it is? Do people have any general comments on this? Some background: I've been looking at quantlib (www.quantlib.org) - a c++ library which performs financial valuation calculations, and whilst they use boost, they have chosen to write their own Date and Calendar classes. Dates, holiday calendars, period calculations, etc, are commonly used in finanial calculations and a performant library generally would add great value. thanks in advance, John McMahon

Problem with boost serialization: shared_ptr
by Michel Pineau 14 Jun '07

Hello, I'm trying to serialize many boost::shared_ptr to the same object but through different base classes. When I look at the boost::shared_ptr for the base classes they are not properly set. I created a simple example that show my problem. The test program output is: Running 1 test case... In function ABC In function A In function B In function C In function ABC In function A In function A In function A I'm using boost 1.33.1 on Linux with gcc 3.4.5 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2).

Re: [Boost-users] Getting the argument types from a function type
by Benjamin Winkler 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hello Kirit, to solve your specific problem, you could just do without Boost.function and also use templates for operator(): template <class C, typename F> class with_binder { C& m_this; F m_fn; public: with_binder(C& ref, F fn) : m_this(ref), m_fn(fn) { } // one parameter template <typename T1> const with_binder<C,F>& operator()(T1& v1) const { (m_this.*m_fn)(v1); return *this; } template <typename T1> const with_binder<C,F>& operator()(const T1& v1) const { (m_this.*m_fn)(v1); return *this; } // two parameters template <typename T1, typename T2> const with_binder<C,F>& operator()(T1& v1, T2& v2) const { (m_this.*m_fn)(v1, v2); return *this; } template <typename T1, typename T2> const with_binder<C,F>& operator()(const T1& v1, const T2& v2) const { (m_this.*m_fn)(v1, v2); return *this; } // ... and so on ... }; template <class C, typename F> with_binder<C,F> with(C& ref, F fn) { return with_binder<C,F>(ref,fn); } Regards, Benjamin >I've been playing around with a few functional programming idioms in C++ >using Boost.function and Boost.lambda and was wondering if it was >possible to fetch out the argument type (i.e. int) from a type like this: > >void (*somefunc)( int ) > >It looks to me like boost::function<> might be doing something along >these lines. > >I've been working on a version of 'with' for use in initialising lists >etc. At the moment you need to do this: > > std::list< int > list1; > list1.push_back( 3 ); > list1.push_back( 1 ); > list1.push_back( 4 ); > >But using 'with' you can do this: > > with( list2, &std::list< int >::push_back )( 3 )( 1 )( 4 )( 1 )( 5 ); > >The implementation I have right now is fairly simple: > >template< typename F > >struct with_binder { > with_binder( F f ) > : m_f( f ) { > } > const with_binder &operator()( int i ) const { > m_f( i ); > return *this; > } >private: > F m_f; >}; >template< typename O, typename F > inline >with_binder< boost::function< void ( int ) > > with( O &o, F f ) { > return with_binder< boost::function< void ( int ) > >( >boost::lambda::bind( f, &o, boost::lambda::_1 ) ); >} > >But the 'int' argument type is hard coded.

optimizing use of dynamic_bitset
by Dave Steffen 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi Folks, Having gotten a big chunk of code to work, I'm now spending a few days making it fast. So far, I've removed enough overhead to drop our runtime by a factor of 4, and a big part of that was replacing some other data structures with dynamic_bitset. Profiling data now indicates that one of the more expensive operations is spending most of its time calling dynamic_bitset<>::test a bajillion times. My question is this: is dynamic_bitset::test generally thought to be the fastest way to access a specific bit in a dynamic_bitset? Are there other ways to determine if bit n is set? (I assume that anything using dynamic_bitset::operator[] will be slower, since it has to set up a proxy, but have not tested this.) Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks! -- Dave Steffen, Ph.D. Disobey this command! Software Engineer IV - Douglas Hofstadter Numerica Corporation dg@steffen a@t numerica d@ot us (remove @'s to email me)

Hi boost users, I am trying to install Boost 1.34 in a Vista x64 (Core-duo) & VC++ 2005. I could compile the x32 version without any problems.

derivative work
by Ruediger Berlich 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi there, just a short question about the meaning of "derivative work" in the Boost software license (and the associated requirement to list the Copyright and license terms in such work). My understanding of the term "derivative work" is that it applies to modifications of the original code only, not to software _using_ the code. I.e., if I were to modify the code in shared_ptr.hpp, then of course I would have to include the original Copyright notices and license terms. Whereas, if I use shared_ptr in my software, I do not need to list the original Copyright notices and license terms. Plus, the Copyright of my own cose is solely with me. Is this interpretation correct ? Best Regards and thanks for your help, Ruediger Berlich

Getting the argument types from a function type
by Kirit Sælensminde 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

I've been playing around with a few functional programming idioms in C++ using Boost.function and Boost.lambda and was wondering if it was possible to fetch out the argument type (i.e. int) from a type like this: void (*somefunc)( int ) It looks to me like boost::function<> might be doing something along these lines. I've been working on a version of 'with' for use in initialising lists etc. At the moment you need to do this: std::list< int > list1; list1.push_back( 3 ); list1.push_back( 1 ); list1.push_back( 4 ); But using 'with' you can do this: with( list2, &std::list< int >::push_back )( 3 )( 1 )( 4 )( 1 )( 5 ); The implementation I have right now is fairly simple: template< typename F > struct with_binder { with_binder( F f ) : m_f( f ) { } const with_binder &operator()( int i ) const { m_f( i ); return *this; } private: F m_f; }; template< typename O, typename F > inline with_binder< boost::function< void ( int ) > > with( O &o, F f ) { return with_binder< boost::function< void ( int ) > >( boost::lambda::bind( f, &o, boost::lambda::_1 ) ); } But the 'int' argument type is hard coded. I could have it as the first template parameter to 'with' and simply require that it is given when using 'with', but it would neater if it could be derived from the type 'F' in 'with'. Clearly to be more generally useful it also needs to be extended for multiple parameters. K

graph library : isomorphism.hpp vertex invariant parameter
by Patrick A. La Fratta 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Setting the "vertex_invariant" parameter to the isomorphism function does not seem to have any affect on the behavior of the function. In isomorphism.hpp, it appears that the function "isomorphism_impl" is supposed to read the parameter at the return statement: return isomorphism(G1, G2, f, choose_param(get_param(params, vertex_invariant1_t()), invariant1), choose_param(get_param(params, vertex_invariant2_t()), invariant2), choose_param(get_param(params, vertex_max_invariant_t()), ( invariant2.max )()), index_map1, index_map2 ); If "vertex_invariant1_t()" and "vertex_invariant2_t()" are both changed to "vertex_invariant_t()", the setting of the parameter then seems to have an affect. Has anyone been able to successfully set the vertex_invariant parameter using the named parameter version of the isomorphism function? I have had to resort to calling one of the internal isomorphism functions to set this parameter. any help is appreciated, Patrick

some libraries missing
by Fulvio Esposito 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hi all boost users, recently I downloaded source package for version 1.34 from sf.net, but i discovered some library that was accepted were missing (like asio, gil and some others). I think at least they should be in CVS but i've never worked with a source control system. How can I obtain a full distribution from CVS? I'm working on Microsoft Windows XP/Visual C++ Express 2005! Thank you all guys, Fulvio Esposito

[boost::program_options] optional arguments
by Bryan Green 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hello, Is there a mechanism in boost::program_options for supporting optional arguments? If not, is there a suggested program_options-based alternative? This question was posed by someone else about a year ago, but did not get a response. Here is the quote: BEGIN QUOTE From: Dale McCoy (dalestan_at_[hidden]) Date: 2006-04-22 21:15:51 I'm trying to convert from getopt (GNU's getopt_long, to be more specific) to boost::program_options, but have run into trouble converting "D::" and {"data",optional_argument,NULL,'D'} (If you're not familiar with getopt, that means that --data is equivalent to -D, and both take an optional argument, so "-D", "--data", "-Darg", and "--data=arg" are all valid.) I see that the first argument to add_option should be "data,D", but then things get fuzzy. I saw nothing in the documentation concerning optional arguments, either directly, or using additional parsers. What is the appropriate method for implementing such options? I'm using currently using Boost 1.33.1. Dale END QUOTE Bryan

limits.hpp defective

13 Jun '07

Hello, ~3 weeks ago I reported a bug in limits.hpp: May, 21th: "Wrong member definitions in limits.hpp" and also put it into the bug tracking system: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/972 Since no feedback occurred, I repost this now. Another, related question: I found that both SVN and CVS repositories have rather different contents. Could someone explain to me the reasons for these deviations? Thanks in advance, Daniel Krügler

[intrusive] lock-free algorithms
by Zeljko Vrba 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Are there any plans to extend the intrusive library with lock-free data structures (stacks, FIFO queues)? I'm about to start writing my own lock-free classes and have thought that it'd be nice to include them in the intrusive library, if possible [I've gotten used to the interface, and I don't want to have different interfaces in my code]. My goals: - lock-free stack and queue - SMR (both described in "Safe Memory Reclamation for Dynamic Lock-Free Objects Using Atomic Reads and Writes" by Maged M. Michael) - target platform: Solaris using atomic_ops (3C); possibly also inline ASM for SunCC I don't have neither time nor resources (nor will, for that matter) to make a full implementation that works on all platforms supported by Boost. Also, I do *not* want to use Boost.Thread. The code is parametrized by the following (all related to SMR): - number of participating threads (every "thread" must be associated with a unique integer starting from 0) - number of hazard pointers - batch size SMR also needs static storage accessed by all threads. Any suggestions are welcome.

astar help
by bringiton bringiton 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

I have a number of questions RE the astar-cities example. Why is the distance_heuristic class needed. Is it used to find the weight for a test vertex to the goal vertex? I put a breakpoint in distance_heuristic::operator() and it never gets called. Is it ever used? astar_search (... distance_heuristic<mygraph_t, cost, location*> ...) Do I have to define my own or supply an astar_heuristic? Or can I pass a default heuristic? astar_goal_visitor. Do I need to use this or can I pass a default default_astar_visitor? Are there other ways of reaching a goal without throwing an exception? Thanks. Any advice appreciated

[asio] http-server example
by Daniel Albuschat 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hello there, I'm currently building my own, specialized http-server based on the http-server example. I experience crashes for certain types of replies. Here's something I really do not understand: In connection.cpp, after request_parser_.parse() finished and result == true, there is this line: boost::asio::async_write(socket_, reply_.to_buffers(), boost::bind(&connection::handle_write, shared_from_this(), boost::asio::placeholders::error)); It's the last user-code in the stacktrace of the crash that I frequently experience. What bothers me is the reply_.to_buffers() function. It looks like this: std::vector<boost::asio::const_buffer> reply::to_buffers() { std::vector<boost::asio::const_buffer> buffers; buffers.push_back(status_strings::to_buffer(status)); for (std::size_t i = 0; i < headers.size(); ++i) { header& h = headers[i]; buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(h.name)); buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(misc_strings::name_value_separator)); buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(h.value)); buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(misc_strings::crlf)); } buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(misc_strings::crlf)); buffers.push_back(boost::asio::buffer(content)); return buffers; } How can this even work? It adds temporaries (the misc_strings are const char[]s) to a const_buffer-vector and reads them later. Even the references to h.name, etc. seem invalid to me, since the io is asynchronous and there's no guarantee that they don't change. IMHO the whole content needs to be COPIED to new buffers and then, after the async_write finished, deleted. Am I missing something? Was the author of this example not aware of the const_buffer's ownership policy (i.e. it is *not* owner of the data)? I've spent hours and hours in debugging now, but I just can't figure out where it goes wrong. You can see the stacktrace here: http://mandrill.fuxx0r.net/c++/paste:7702 Kind regards, Daniel Albuschat -- eat(this); // delicious suicide

[asio] file streaming
by Chris Fairles 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

I give up! I cannot for the life of me figure out buffers and streams. Any help is greatly appreciated. Here's what I have so far: filesize_ = fs::file_size(filepath_); std::ifstream file(filepath_.file_string().c_str(), std::ios::in ); file.seekg (file_offset_, std::ios::beg); //offset typically 0 unless resuming transfer //just trying this for fun boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket::send_buffer_size option; data_socket_.get_option(option); //tcp socket uint64_t size = option.value(); while (bytes_sent < filesize_) { //i test a file 21200678 bytes long. This tranfers anywhere from 21135097 to 21196000. bytes_sent += data_socket_.send(boost::asio::buffer(file.rdbuf(), std::min(size,filesize_-bytes_sent))); //this always transfers 21204202 bytes_sent += data_socket_.send(boost::asio::buffer(file.rdbuf(), size)); } data_socket_.close(); boost::asio::async_read_until(control_socket_, response_, "\r\n", boost::bind(&FTPClient::handleRead, this, boost::asio::placeholders::error)); write_some vs. send give same results. I've also tried something like: char buf[1024]; socket.write_some(buf, file.readsome(buf, 1024)); which deosnt read all the bytes. Sometimes if I check file.rdbuf()->in_avail(), it reports 0 using above method and bytes_sent stops growing about 99% of the way through. I tired setting the the socket linger option to true. No go. I tried making the data_socket a buffered_write_stream, same results. What am I doing wrong? Sometimes bytes_sent is exactly the file size, but the remote file size is slightly less. Maybe closing the socket stream too early? That sends an eof which the server responds to but it should arrive AFTER the data i would think... no clue. please help :) In the meantime, I'm going to go rip up some FSF ftp client code from source forge heh. Thanks Chris

math/statistics policy-interface feedback requested.
by John Maddock 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Following the successful review of the math-toolkit of special functions and statistical distributions the main feature request was for a better way of customising the library: both for choosing between precision vs speed tradeoffs, and for determining how errors are best handled. I've been experimenting with various policy-based interfaced based on Boost.Parameter, and I think I now have something useable, so I'd like to know what people think: Policy Defaults ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The library will use a sensible set of defaults (throw on domain errors and internal evaluation errors, favour accuracy over speed etc), which can be changed via the usual macro mechanism, so adding: #define BOOST_MATH_DOMAIN_ERROR_POLICY errno_on_error #define BOOST_MATH_OVERFLOW_ERROR_POLICY ignor_error to a user-config header would do what they say to the default policies. Add Hock Changes: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We can create an ad-hock policy change at the call site by using the make_policy function, for example: using namespace boost::math::policy; using namespace boost::math; quantile( poisson(100), 0.05, make_policy( // 5 dicimal digits precision only digits10<10>(), // don't internally promote double->long double for extra precision: promote_double<false>(), // return integer result, immediately below the "real" value: discrete_quantile<integer_below>() )); Which returns the lower 95% quantile (ie critical value) of a poisson distribution with rate parameter of 100 event's per unit time. The result is calculated using only 10 decimal digits internal precision, truncated to the largest integer that gives a CDF less than 0.05. Predefined Policies ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Although ad-hock policies are useful for testing, I imagine most sites would want a few carefully controlled (and tested) policies. To achieve that you define a typedef of the policy class: using namespace boost::math::policy; typedef policy< // Set error handling: domain_error<throw_on_error>, pole_error<throw_on_error>, overflow_error<throw_on_error>, evaluation_error<throw_on_error>, denorm_error<ignor_error>, underflow_error<ignor_error>, // calculate to 8 decimal digits internally digits10<8>, // don't promote double->long double for accuracy promote_double<false>, // Integer quantiles return the "outside edge": // below the real value for lower critical values, // above it for upper critical values, so that the // area inside contains *at least* the requested coverage: discrete_quantile<integer_outside_edge> > fast_quantile_policy; static fast_quantile_policy fast_quantile; Then we can just use: quantile( poisson(100), 0.05, fast_quantile); In our actual code. Currently this policy interface is vapourware: I have enough of a prototype implemented to know that it's possible to achieve this syntax (this is revision #3 already !), but there's a lot of hairy meta-programming to convert that into something that the library's internals can make use of... so I'd like to know what folks think before I invest too much time messing about with MPL :-) The main disadvantage I've noticed at present, is that the mangled names of the policy class - and therefore all the special functions etc - are *very* long. This has an impact on error messages: in particular we currently use BOOST_CURRENT_FUNCTION to get a nice formatted name of a function that's about to throw, but with function names a couple of pages long I don't think that will be possible with this interface any more :-( Thanks in advance, John Maddock.

However, even with this, when trying to do a search: Bar_container bar_container; int function() { Bar_container::nth_index<0>::type& a_index = bar_container.get<0>(); Bar_container::nth_index<0>::type::iterator i = a_index.find(5); if (i != a_index.end()) return -1; return 0; } I get this: /usr/include/boost/multi_index/member.hpp: In member function 'Type& boost::multi_index::detail::non_const_member_base<Class, Type, PtrToMember>::operator()(const ChainedPtr&) const [with ChainedPtr = Bar, Class = Foo, Type = int, Type Class::* PtrToMember = &Foo::a]': /usr/include/boost/multi_index/detail/ord_index_ops.hpp:65: instantiated from 'Node* boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index_find(Node*, const KeyFromValue&, const CompatibleKey&, const CompatibleCompare&) [with Node = boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index_node<boost::multi_index::detail::i ndex_node_base<Bar> >, KeyFromValue = boost::multi_index::member<Foo, int, &Foo::a>, CompatibleKey = int, CompatibleCompare = std::less<int>]' /usr/include/boost/multi_index/ordered_index.hpp:376: instantiated from 'boost::multi_index::detail::index_iterator<boost::multi_index::detail::orde red_index_node<typename SuperMeta::type::node_type> > boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index<KeyFromValue, Compare, SuperMeta, TagList, Category>::find(const CompatibleKey&) const [with CompatibleKey = int, KeyFromValue = boost::multi_index::member<Foo, int, &Foo::a>, Compare = std::less<int>, SuperMeta = boost::multi_index::detail::nth_layer<1, Bar, boost::multi_index::indexed_by<boost::multi_index::ordered_unique<boost::mul ti_index::member<Foo, int, &Foo::a>, mpl_::na, mpl_::na>, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na>, std::allocator<Bar> >, TagList = boost::mpl::vector0<mpl_::na>, Category = boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_unique_tag]' multitest2.cc:55: instantiated from here /usr/include/boost/multi_index/member.hpp:84: error: no match for 'operator*' in '*x' I've tried a few alternatives such as providing a custom compare function but I always get this error. It seems to have something to do with the fact that the key is in the base class. If I move the key to the derived class (and change the "member<" line), it works fine. Surely there's a way to do this. Anyone know how ? Using gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21) and libboost 1.33.1.

Problems instantiating class Boost Python class
by Phil 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hi, I'm a newbie having some problems instantiating a class written in C++ in Python using Boost.Python. I can get a very simple example working when I expose a function outside of a class, that returns a string, but the below fails as shown, despite building. The enum in the same library however works fine. I've googled the error returned from Python and I get zero hits - has anyone get any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm using Python 2.5, GCC 4.0.1 and Boost 1.33 on Mac OS X 10.4.9. I don't think it matters but I'm building the solution as a dynamic C++ bsd library in XCode and the changing the Mac OS X .dylib extention to .so as is required by Python. This all works for simpler examples and the enum in this example. Error: TypeError: __init__() should return None, not 'NoneType' Thanks, Phil. From header file example.h: enum payOffType { CALL, PUT }; class Option { public: //defaults to call Option( double strike, double expiry ); double getPutCallMultiplier(); private: double strike; double expiry; payOffType type; }; From cpp file example.cpp: Option::Option( double strike, double expiry ) : strike( strike ), expiry( expiry ), type( CALL ) { cout << "Option Contructor called"; } double Option::getPutCallMultiplier() { return ( type == CALL ) ? 1 : -1; } BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(libphil_boost) { class_<Option>("Option", init<double, double>()) .def("getPutCallMultiplier", &Option::getPutCallMultiplier) ; enum_<payOffType>("payOffType") .value("CALL", CALL) .value("PUT", PUT) ; } Using Python on the resulting .so: $ python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jun 10 2007, 17:57:56) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5250)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import libphil_boost >>> p = libphil_boost.Option( 23, 23 ) Option Contructor calledTraceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: __init__() should return None, not 'NoneType' >>>

boost::pool issue
by v r 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Hi, I have a main object that allocates many small objects via singleton_pool , and during its operation main obj uses up much memory so i want to release that memory before program termination, because main obj performs only support operations in my program. So upon main obj destruction i make a singleton_pool::purge_memory() call in main obj destructor, the memory is released and i should be quite happy,but when the main obj is constructed again the pool allocates twice as much memory as it used before, and it continues to double every time i construct/destruct the main object, so very soon my program hangs up. I wonder what have i done wrong? It seems like something is not reset on memory purge, or maybe it`s a bug? --------------------------------- Вы уже с Yahoo!?

[asio] Receiving non-UDP multicast frames?
by Eric Hill 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

I have been requested to write a tiny diagnostic application that will listen for Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) messages from Cisco switches on a workstation so that the workstation will "know" what switch port it is plugged into. I have found the following information with my limited google-foo: CDP Packet Format: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/trsrb/frames.htm#xtocid… CDP Information: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps663/products_tech_note091… The latter link says that CDP uses a destination multicast address 01-00-0c-cc-cc-cc, HDLC protocol type 0x2000 on an Ethernet segment. This is where I get lost. Is that an Ethernet MAC broadcast, or a socket-based broadcast? Can I capture those CDP advertisements with asio? Eric

Binary 1.34 installer
by Luigi Ballabio 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Hi all, I'm one of the developers of a project that requires a few Boost libraries. First of all, thanks to the people at Boost Consulting who made the binary installer available; we have a constant stream of new users asking for instructions on how to build Boost, and let's just say that since the installer was released for version 1.33.1, it streamlined our answers... we still had a few users we couldn't direct to this solution, though; namely, those behind a corporate firewall. Does the new installer for 1.34 work in this setting? I can't test it myself, as I'm not behind such a firewall. Thanks again, Luigi ---------------------------------------- Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact. -- George Eliot

[Pool] pool_allocator with vector-of-vectors ??
by Williams, Alan B 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

I have a question about using the standard allocator interface in the boost.pool library. (I'm using boost 1.34.0 with g++ 3.4.3 on redhat linux, in case it matters.) I've successfully used boost::pool_allocator with individual std::vector objects, but I'm having trouble using it with a vector-of-vectors object, like this: std::vector<std::vector<int, boost::pool_allocator<int> > > myvec(1); myvec[0].push_back(99); The "push_back" line causes a seg-fault, which purify says is an array-bounds-write occurring in boost::simple_segregated_storage<unsigned long>::segregate. Am I misusing the pool_allocator? Thanks, Alan

[mpl] can't transform a map
by Yuval Ronen 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

I have the following code: #include <utility> #include <boost/mpl/map.hpp> #include <boost/mpl/transform.hpp> template <typename MplPair> struct make_ptr_pair1 { typedef std::pair<typename MplPair::first *, typename MplPair::second *> type; }; template <typename First, typename Second> struct make_ptr_pair2 { typedef std::pair<First *, Second *> type; }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { namespace mpl = boost::mpl; typedef mpl::map< mpl::pair<int, double> > my_map; //typedef mpl::transform< my_map, make_ptr_pair1<mpl::_1> >::type ptr_pair_seq1; //typedef mpl::transform< my_map, make_ptr_pair2<mpl::_1, mpl::_2> >::type ptr_pair_seq2; return 0; } If I uncomment any of the two mpl::transform lines in main(), the code doesn't compile (VC8). The point is to get a sequence of std::pairs out of the content of the mpl::map. Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Can mpl::transform be used for mpl::map? Maybe I can do it with fusion, but the above code seems to be something that's supposed to be working, isn't it? Yuval

Hello, After upgrading bjam from version 03.01.11 to 03.1.13 I ran into an issue that is not backwards compatible, and I am wondering if someone has an alternative solution. actions svn_export { svn export $(>) $(<) } make $(TOP)/oak/test/out/SMALL/ : $(TOP)/test/xylem_test_data/SMALL/ : svn_export ; This make rule no longer works in the 3.1.13 version upon directories as targets (works fine for file targets).

MPL intersection of type sequences and compile-time performance
by Andrej van der Zee 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Hi, Sorry if this already has been posted, but I have a problem with compile-time performance when trying to get the intersection of two type sequences. For example, when I do something like this: template<typename list1, typename list2> struct intersect { typedef typename boost::mpl::remove_if<list1, mpl::not_< mpl::contains<list2, mpl::_1> >::type type; }; typedef mpl::vector<a,b,...,z> l1; typedef mpl::vector<c,e,t,u,v> l2; typename intersect<list1,list2>::type my_intersection; Then for large type sequences compile-time becomes unacceptable (O(M*N)). Is there a better way to do this? Thanks, Andrej ___________________________________________________________ To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!

Performing static_cast<shared_ptr<base>*> on a shared_ptr<derived>*. Any guarantees?
by Pete Bartlett 11 Jun '07

11 Jun '07

I have taken over some code that boils down to ///begin code #include <iostream> #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> struct base { int i; base(int i_):i(i_) {} }; struct derived : base { derived(int i): base(i) {} }; int main() { boost::shared_ptr<derived> pd(new derived(5)); void* ptr_to_pd = &pd; boost::shared_ptr<base>* ptr_to_pb = static_cast< boost::shared_ptr<base>* >(ptr_to_pd); std::cout << "\n" << (**ptr_to_pb).i ; //Prints 5 } ///End code Now shared_ptr<B> and shared_ptr<A> are unrelated types, so IIUC there is no guarantee that this will work. Is that right? I know from the shared_ptr documentation that I should refactor in the direction of dynamic_ptr_cast (though complications not shown in the code above make that harder that). However for the time being this code appears to be working. Is that just a fluke? I.e. I am relying on the author of boost::shared_ptr and/or my compiler creators not to do something such that it doesn't work. Is there the possibility that any memory could be deleted twice? Or I am worrying over nothing and in fact there is a reason why the above is safe? Many thanks for any advice you can provide, Peter Bartlett

[bind] Help with functional composition of shared_ptr::use_count in std::map
by Hughes, James 11 Jun '07

Hello all, I'm trying to use bind to help with removeif in a std::map<string, shared_ptr<something> >. I want to remove items where the shared_ptr use_count is 1. map<string, shared_ptr<data> > Fred; RemoveIf(Fred.begin(), Fred.end(), boost::bind(std::equal_to<long>(), 1, boost::bind(&map<string, shared_ptr<data> >::value_type::second::use_count, _1) ) However, I get a compile error on ::second not being a class or namespace. Anyone know how I should do this? I'm a beginner at boost::bind, so be gentle....
