SSL handshake error "The file handle supplied is not valid"
by Osman Zakir 09 Mar '19

09 Mar '19

@chris@kohlhoff.com<mailto:chris@kohlhoff.com> I also opened an issue about this on GitHub here: https://github.com/chriskohlhoff/asio/issues/376 and I tried to make sure to provide all of the necessary information. Except I've just now updated the line numbers in my .cpp file to document the errors meaning that now the error I have reads: " Lines 576 and 577: handshake: The file handle supplied is not valid " Aside from that and the fact that I changed the datatype of "doc_root" in main and do_session to std::string, it's the same. Source code is here: https://github.com/DragonOsman/currency_converter . If I should put all of the info I have in the issue opened on GitHub here as well, please let me know and I'll do it.

[boost::filesystem::path] removing components of a path
by Sean Farrow 08 Mar '19

08 Mar '19

Hi all, I'm revisiting boost::filesystem::path after not using it for a while and wondered whether there is a way to remove parts of a path deeper than a specific directory? By way of an example, assume I have the following path declared: boost::filesystem::path path ="d:\\test1\\test2\\test3.txt" what I want to do is determine whether test2 exists as part of the path and if it does remove everything after and including the found part of the path, so in this case \\test2\\test3.txt<file://test2/test3.txt> would be removed. I could do it by converting the path to a string, but wondered whether boost::filesystem could do this natively in some way. Any help appreciated. Kind regards Sean.

Using domain-based SSL certificate with Boost.Beast
by Osman Zakir 05 Mar '19

05 Mar '19

I looked at this example server certificate in the Boost.Beast repository: https://github.com/boostorg/beast/blob/develop/example/common/server_certif… . I have a free SSL certificate that I got for my Dynamic DNS subdomain name which doesn't have DH parameters but does have a certificate chain and a private key. I don't know what to put for ctx.set_options or ctx.set_password_callback. I tried asking at Let's Encrypt as well: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/how-to-secure-dynamic-dns/87816/19 . I decided to ask here because they said they can't advise me on how to do it with Boost. I don't want to try a reverse proxy. My current web server code can be found here: https://github.com/DragonOsman/currency_converter/blob/master/currency_conv… .

[MPL][MP11] Return value of at_c for out of range index
by Mateusz Loskot 05 Mar '19

05 Mar '19

Hi, While porting some code from MPL to MP11, the latter helped to find some bugs in the ported code [1] I looked closer at those and found 'behavioural' differences between MPL and MP11 when accessing sequences with index value that is out of range. Could anyone help me to understand the following? 1. Why this compiles? using R = at_c<range_c<int, 0, 1>, 100>::type; Tested in C++11 using GCC, clang, MSVC from VS2017/2019 2. Why this compiles in GCC and clang, but fails with MSVC? using V = at_c<vector3_c<unsigned, 1, 2, 3>, 100>::type::type; 3. For GCC and clang, why this compiles static_assert(std::is_same<R, integral_c<int, 100>>::value, ""); but this fails? static_assert(std::is_same<V, integral_c<unsigned int, 100>>::value, ""); Don't vector_c and range_c yield equivalent sequences? By the way, MP11's mp_at_c yield void, as expected, there also no ::type or ::value member, so diagnostics is clearer.

Installing multiple versions of Boost libraries on Linux: Ubuntu & Debian.
by Stephen Gray 05 Mar '19

05 Mar '19

Please could someone advise how to install multiple releases of the Boost libraries on a Linux (Ubuntu & Debian) system and set the system paths to permit switching between them; so that a compiler refers to the desired version and the relevant runtime components are available to an application; e.g. the .so file for boost serialization. Thanks.

Spatial search with boost r tree
by Bozo Vazic 01 Mar '19

01 Mar '19

Hi all, I'm trying to create a boost r tree with packing algorithm that will store 2D or 3D geometric points. This will be applied in side my peridynamic software for what we call "family search". Family search is basically a simple spatial search where each point of the peridynamic mesh (cloud of geometric points) needs to find all points inside it's horizon (horizon is for 2D a circle with a specific radius and for 3D it's a sphere with a specific radius). What I've found so far were examples for distance search using a random point (not the point that is a r-tree member). I did a distance and index check using bg::index::satisfies by passing a method that checks if the index is different and is distance smaller than radius. Also I use within(box) to constrain my search, but I'm not sure that is the correct way to use r tree spatial search for the point that is a member of the same r tree. Because as far as I understand the point in the r-tree knows has the information of boxes in which it is contained, so wouldn't there be a way to query the tree member using using only the horizon value? The reason why I'm asking this question is because I need to define most optimal spatial search so that query times don't take to long. This is important as I can have several million points that need to be constantly queried. Thnx in advance for all the help. Best Regads Bozo Here is my code for 2D search of only one point #include "stdafx.h" #include <boost/function_output_iterator.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/index/rtree.hpp> #include <boost/geometry.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/geometries/point.hpp> #include <boost/geometry/geometries/box.hpp> #include <vector> #include <iostream> namespace bg = boost::geometry; namespace bgi = bg::index; typedef bg::model::point <double, 2, bg::cs::cartesian> point; typedef std::pair<point, std::size_t> pointI; typedef bg::model::box<point> box; typedef std::pair<point, unsigned> value; bool CheckIndexAndDist(pointI i, pointI j, size_t dist); std::vector<uint64_t> res; struct StoreDataCallback { template <typename Value> void operator()(Value const& v) { res.push_back(v.second); } }; int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { std::vector<point> contourCenters; // has some value std::vector<pointI> cloud; double length = 2000; double width = 2000; double dX = length/1000.0; double horizon = 3.015*dX; for(int i = 0; i < length; i++) { for(int j = 0; j < width; j++) { point p; p.set<0>((-1.0 * length / 2.0) + dX + j * dX); p.set<1>((-1.0 * width / 2.0) + dX + i * dX); contourCenters.push_back(p); } } size_t id_gen = 0; std::transform( contourCenters.begin(), contourCenters.end(), back_inserter(cloud), [&](point const& p) { return std::make_pair(p, id_gen++); } ); bgi::rtree<pointI, bgi::quadratic<16> > rtree(cloud); // spatial search box query_box(point(cloud[10].first.get<0>() - 3.2*dX, cloud[10].first.get<1>() - 3.2*dX),point(cloud[10].first.get<0>() + 3.2*dX, cloud[10].first.get<1>() + 3.2*dX)); StoreDataCallback callback; rtree.query( bgi::within(query_box) && bgi::satisfies([&](value const& v) {return CheckIndexAndDist(v, cloud[10],3.015*dX);}), boost::make_function_output_iterator(callback)); return 0; } bool CheckIndexAndDist(pointI i, pointI j, size_t dist) { if( i.second != j.second && (bg::distance(i.first, j.first) < dist)) return true; else return false; }

Boost archive import error.

01 Mar '19

Dear boost-users, On Debian 8 I've compiled a Python extension written in c++ using pip install against Boost_1_66_0. My source code includes: #include "boost/archive/text_iarchive.hpp" #include "boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp" #include "boost/serialization/map.hpp" #include "boost/serialization/deque.hpp" At runtime I receive the error: ImportError: /home/stephen/envs/pyclonestream/lib/python3.4/site-packages/pyclonestream.cpython-34m.so: undefined symbol: _ZN5boost7archive18text_iarchive_implINS0_13text_iarchiveEE13load_overrideERNS0_15class_name_typeEi I don't know what's wrong here. Please, any suggestions to fix the issue?
