lambda library usage
by khuroth 27 Aug '02

I have a View class that has some widgets, and a Controller class that controls the view, so the View class has a GetController() member function that returns a reference to its controller. When the View's constructor is called, GetController() would return a bad ref, but it would return a valid reference by the time a button is clicked... so what I'm trying to do is, inside the View constructor: my_button.on_click = bind( (_1 ->* &A::GetController).DoSomething(), this ); but that obviously doesn't work... I'm even having trouble just saving the first part: my_button.on_click = bind<Controller&>(_1 ->* &A::GetController, this); also doesn't work... I tried defining the on_click member of the button as a boost::function<void> or a boost::function0<void> in the first example, and a boost::function<Controller&> or boost::function0<Controller&> in the second snip... I get immense compiler errors, so I'm not sure where I messed up. What am I doing wrong?

shared_ptr swap problems
by Olaf Petzold 27 Aug '02

27 Aug '02

Hello, I've trouble with the follwong snippet: #include <iostream> #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> struct A { A(const char* n) : name(n) { } const char* name; }; struct B : public A { B(const char* n) : A(n) { std::cout << "construct " << name << std::endl; } ~B() { std::cout << "destruct " << name << std::endl; } }; struct BaseC { virtual void set(const boost::shared_ptr<A>& ptr) = 0; }; struct C : public BaseC { C() : b( new B("C::b") ) { } void set(const boost::shared_ptr<A>& ptr) { b.swap( boost::shared_static_cast( ptr ) ); // L21 } void print() { std::cout << b->name << std::endl; } boost::shared_ptr b; }; using namespace std; int main() { boost::shared_ptr<A> b( new B("b") ); C c; c.print(); c.set( b ); c.print(); } t.cc: In member function `virtual void C::set(const boost::shared_ptr<A>&)': t.cc:21: no matching function for call to `boost::shared_ptr::swap(boost::shared_ptr)' /usr/include/boost/shared_ptr.hpp:234: candidates are: void boost::shared_ptr<T>::swap(boost::shared_ptr<T>&) [with T = B] I did try boost::shared_polymorphic_cast to get a std::bad_cast exception - but it doesn't compile too. How can get it working? Thanks Olaf

Unless you are having a specific problem that requires a file from the Attic, then don't worry about what's up there (I suspect that's probably why it's called the "Attic" - out of sight, out of mind ;-) -- Jim

How can checkout the files in Attic (hidden) from the cvs server?
by li_lirong 27 Aug '02

27 Aug '02

I'm using WinCvs to checkout the current version of boost from the cvs server. However, I found that I can not checkout some of the libs which are put in the Attic, though I can browse them through my internet browser. Anyone knows how to check these files out? (for example, the mpl lib) Thanks in advance, Lirong

boost::any and operator ==
by billrobertson42 27 Aug '02

How do I compare two boost::any values for equality? How to I compare two containers of boost::any's for equality? Why doesn't boost::any define this operator? There has to be a reason. Thanks!

I'm teaching a graduate class on generic programming this semester, and I'm looking for some solid, meaningful projects for my students. If there are extensions to existing Boost libraries that you would like, or some new C++ library that you would like written, please contact me. -- Kevin S. Van Horn kevin.vanhorn(a)ndsu.nodak.edu

Using Hash with Graph
by Sandeep Bhutani 26 Aug '02

26 Aug '02

Hi, I am trying to use hash feature with the graph library. Here are the various details: Solaris: SunOS 5.7 Compiler: KAI 4.0 STL: Native Sun Hash: A hacked up version of SGI/STLPort I can get graph to work with vectors/lists. I can't get it to work with the hash_set or hash_map. I get a message from the "concept_checks.h" file in my hash which essentially tells me that the hash function is not defined. I am reproducing the message from the compiler at the bottom. I am trying to make all this work by using the adjacency_list.cpp file in the examples directory. Here is the change I have made to that file: typedef adjacency_list<hash_setS, listS, undirectedS, VertexProperty, EdgeProperty> Graph; // New typedef adjacency_list<vecS, listS, undirectedS, VertexProperty, EdgeProperty> Graph; // Old Can you please help? Has anyone used the has feature in the graph library. I had to edit the line number 166 in adjacency_list.hpp to replace hash_set with hash_map. Thanks -Sandeep The message: "/lsi/home/bhutani/hash/include/concept_checks.h", line 289: error: call of an object of a class type without appropriate operator() or conversion functions to pointer-to-function type return __f(__arg); ^ detected during instantiation of "_Ret _STL_UNARY_FUNCTION_ERROR<_Func, _Ret, _Arg>::__unary_function_requirement_violation(_Func &, const _Arg &) [with _Func=std::hash<boost::detail::adj_list_gen<boost::adjacenc y_list<boost::hash_setS, boost::listS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_index_t, size_t, boost::property<boost::vertex_color_t, boost::default_color_type, boost::no_property>>, boost::property<boost::edge_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::listS>, boost::listS, boost::hash_setS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_index_t, size_t, boost::property<boost::vertex_color_t, boost::default_color_type, boost::no_property>>, boost::property<boost::edge_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::listS>::config::StoredEdge>, _Ret=size_t, _Arg=boost::detail::adj_list_gen<boost::adjacency_list<boos t::hash_setS, boost::listS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_index_t, size_t, boost::property<boost::vertex_color_t, boost::default_color_type, boost::no_property>>, boost::property<boost::edge_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::listS>, boost::listS, boost::hash_setS, boost::undirectedS, boost::property<boost::vertex_index_t, size_t, boost::property<boost::vertex_color_t, boost::default_color_type, boost::no_property>>, boost::property<boost::edge_name_t, std::string, boost::no_property>, boost::no_property, boost::listS>::config::StoredEdge]" at line 95 of "adjacency_list.cpp" 1 error detected in the compilation of "adjacency_list.cpp".

Is that a known bug of MSVC? changing all the typename to class removed the error messages.

Trouble with boost::bind
by stupid_newcomer 26 Aug '02

26 Aug '02

I'm trying to play with boost::bind and boost::mem_fn, however, i have some difficulties with the member function with more than 2 arguments. I have tried a number of time and gone through the documentation , but still can't found an answer. Example: #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> #include <boost/mem_fn.hpp> #include <boost/bind.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <algorithm> using namespace std; class B { public: void print0() const { cout << "B::print0 " << endl; } void print1(int i) const { cout << "B::print1 " < Ptr; vector<Ptr> v; for (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i) { v.push_back(boost::shared_ptr(new B())); } // zero argument, OK for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::mem_fn(&B::print0)); // one argument, OK for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), boost::bind(&B::print1, _1, 5)); // two argument, how to call B::print2 ? // for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), /* B::print2 */); return 0; } Thanks for your help!

regex_match question
by yg-boost-users＠m.gmane.org 25 Aug '02

25 Aug '02

hello everybody i have a trouble with regex_match function. when i try to match a string with a pattern like "(abc)*", and if the string beeng matched contains several subexpressions 'abc', regex_match returns only one match so that i can't iterate through all of them. so, it counts subexp's in the pattern, not in the string. why it happens (i use default flags for regex_match, which must perform what i expect)? and what is the solution to the problem (the one i found so far is to parse in 2 phases - once with regex_match to be sure that the whole string matched, and then to use regex_split. but i'd like to parse the string only once and obtain all the subexp's)? thanks in advance aram
