[program_options] cmake discovery issue
by Jeanette C. 21 Apr '20

21 Apr '20

Hello, I can't say when these errors first appeared, certainly not in Boost 1.63 . I have a project working with cmake and the following cmmake lines: set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON) find_package(Boost 1.58 REQUIRED COMPONENTS program_options filesystem date_time system) if (Boost_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_FOUND) set (INCS ${INCS} ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS}) set (LIBS ${LIBS} ${Boost_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_LIBRARY} ${Boost_SYSTEM_LIBRARY}) endif (Boost_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_FOUND) Which says that it found the libraries and lower down produces this error: CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt: Imported target "Boost::program_options" includes non-existent path "/include" in its INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES. Possible reasons include: * The path was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location. * An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully. * The installation package was faulty and references files it does not provide. This error appears twice in the output. My cmake skills are too meagre to trace it to a particular point in the Boost Cmake modules. Could someone please help? Is it perhaps my fault for not updating a call somewhere? Best wishes and TIA, Jeanette -- * Website: http://juliencoder.de - for summer is a state of sound * Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMS4rfGrTwz8W7jhC1Jnv7g * SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/jeanette_c * Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeanette_c_s * Audiobombs: https://www.audiobombs.com/users/jeanette_c * GitHub: https://github.com/jeanette-c There's no time to loose And next week, You might not see me here <3 (Britney Spears)

Continuous Deployment of Boost.Beast-based server
by Dominique Devienne 21 Apr '20

21 Apr '20

Imagine I have a WebSocket server, implemented using Boost.Asio and Boost.Beast. It's deployed and serving clients in production or test environments, but I fixed a bug, checked in a fix, passed CI, and would like to redeploy, but w/o downtime for existing clients. New clients should use the same address, but be served by the newly deployed fixed server. While on-ongoing WebSocket connections keep on using the old server. Is that possible? In-process? Or one must use some kind of "front-end server" redirecting new traffic (i.e. new WebSocket session and/or HTTP requests) to separate processes? (nginx? little GoLang exe? In C++ Boost.Asio based? else?) If not possible in-process, then how to know when older server is no longer in use, to gracefully stop it? Asio servers typically run forever, i.e. never run out of work, even when they temporarily have nothing to do, by design. The goal is to do this on "premise" (i.e. not in the cloud), on a single machine (no containers), and cross-platform (Windows and Linux). Thanks, --DD

Building boost 1.72 with arm 64 bit gcc compiler
by Rahul Sreeram 20 Apr '20

20 Apr '20

Hi, I am trying to build boost 1.72 with arm 64 bit compiler. I am seeing the error: No best alternative for libs/context/build/asm_sources Although, after getting this error, compilation looks to succeed, but I am not sure if it did properly or not. I have this line in the project-config.jam: using gcc : arm : aarch64-fsl-linux-g++ --sysroot=/sysroots/aarch64-fsl-linux ; After running b2, I get the following output: ./b2 toolset=gcc-arm

[random_device] App crash on boost::ramdom::random_device
by 박형근(HYUNGGUN PARK) 17 Apr '20

17 Apr '20

Hi there! My app crash on customer's site. It crashes everytime the app is starting. It happens on Chinese Windows7 (64bit) OS but it runs well on my PC with Korean Windows7 OS and English Windows7 OS. My app is built on VisualStudio 2010 (x86 build, C++) using websocketpp library and boost 1.55. The call-stack from the dump file shows my app(TMSClient100) called websocketpp::endpoint, then it called boost::random::random_device then ThrowException. Here's the call-stack info: 14 001cf6ac 7113872d e06d7363 00000001 00000003 KERNELBASE!RaiseException+0x58 15 001cf6e4 713b7c5a 001cf704 713d9350 b621b77b msvcr100!_CxxThrowException+0x48 [f:\dd\vctools\crt_bld\self_x86\crt\prebuild\eh\throw.cpp @ 157] 16 001cf814 713b7da3 001cf840 b621b9a7 002a19bc TMSClient100!boost::random::random_device::impl::error+0x15a 17 001cf8b8 713b7f7b 001cf8dc b621b94b 00000000 TMSClient100!boost::random::random_device::impl::impl+0x143 18 001cf904 71383901 b621b8ab 001cfac4 002a17e8 TMSClient100!boost::random::random_device::random_device+0x8b 19 001cf928 7137eb2c 002a17e8 b621b8ef 001cfac4 TMSClient100!websocketpp::endpoint<websocketpp::connection<websocketpp::config::asio_client>,websocketpp::config::asio_client>::endpoint<websocketpp::connection<websocketpp::config::asio_client>,websocketpp::config::asio_client>+0x191 [d:\dev\tms\trunk\library\library_c++_3\websocketpp\websocketpp\endpoint.hpp @ 101] 1a 001cf96c 713598c2 002a1790 b621b83b 001cfa08 TMSClient100!TMS::CWebSocketClient::CWebSocketClient+0x9c [d:\dev\tms\trunk\library\library_c++_3\tmsclient100\websocketclient.cpp @ 15] 1b 001cf9b8 010316cd b620327e 00388fa8 0103c908 TMSClient100!TMS::CTMSClient::CTMSClient+0xf2 [d:\dev\tms\trunk\library\library_c++_3\src\tmsclient.cpp @ 25] Any suggestion how to debug this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Help on anything to try...
by gga 12 Apr '20

12 Apr '20

I am facing a weird crash using boost asio when the client segfaults upon exit on the Release builds of my program after the server has closed the connection. The crash happens upon exit of the application (so my guess it is probably some static destructor crashing), not at the end of the connection to the server. The crash does not occur on the Debug version of my application, nor does asan report any memory trashing. The crash also does not happen if I don't do any network connections in my application (boost::asio does not run any io_services). The crash also happens on Linux only and not on Windows. I created a relatively smaller client/server program like my executable and there's no crash there either. I have run out of things to try. Can someone suggest something I can try to see where the crash is happening? -- Gonzalo Garramuño

404 GMane link in Boost.FileSystem doc
by Dominique Devienne 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

Hi. Over at https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_72_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html#pa… (and older version of the doc too) there's a link to http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/199744 which is no longer so permanent :). According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane the website is no longer available. I guess any GMane link in docs should be updated to another ML archive. My $0.02. Thanks, --DD

[program_options] cmake issues
by Jeanette C. 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

Hey hey, I get a cmake error about a non-existent directory from boost::program_options, namely /include . It only happens with the program_options library. Other libs included in the project are date_time, filesystem and system. A quick peak at /lib/cmake/boost_program_options-1.72.0/boost_program_options-config.cmake compared to the same file from date_time didn't give me any obvious hint though. But I'm not very familiar with cmake. The cmake line in my project to find these Boost packages is this: find_package(Boost 1.58 REQUIRED COMPONENTS program_options filesystem date_time system) Here's the error message when running this with cmake: [...] Imported target "Boost::program_options" includes non-existent path "/include" in its INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES. Possible reasons include: [...] Can someone reproduce the issue or suggest a fix?
