Boost Users, Registration is now open for this year¹s C++Now (put on by Boost). http://cppnow.org/2016-conference/announcements/2016/01/28/registration-is-o pen.html The conference has sold out the last three years and is expect to do say again this year. Do not put off registering. Note that session submitters should not register until they receive instructions from Marshall Clow, our conference registrar. See you in Aspen! Jon

asio: implementing sock->receive like behavior eith async_read_some
by Lloyd 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Hi, I am using asio to read some data from SSL socket. asio tcp socket implements a "receive" function, but ssl socket doesn't have an implementation for "receive". In the code sample given below I wish to implement this kind of behavior. eg { ... sock.async_read_some(...); //continue the execution only after the above call finishes. } Whats the best way to do this? I tried "future" but the code blocks/dead locks some how, The I tried "spawn", but in this case also I don't know the method to wait for the coroutine to finish. Some tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lloyd

[Boost.LexicalCast] problem with 1.59 in Solaris
by dariomt＠gmail.com 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Trying to compile file libs/date_time/src/gregorian/greg_month.cpp I get an error related to Boost.LexicalCast. I have reduced the problem to a minimal test case: #include <string> #include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp> void f(const char* s) { std::string s1(boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(s)); } My feeling is that this compiler has problems in the specializations for boost::detail::is_stdstring and boost::detail::is_char_array_to_stdstring. If I remove all those specializations the error goes away. I assume this is not the perfect solution because I guess this will miss some optimization of lexical_cast, but at least I can compile it this way :( Is there a better solution for this? Has this problem been fixed in 1.60? Error message (full instantiation stack available if needed): "/ThirdPartyLibs/boost/1_59_0/boost/lexical_cast/try_lexical_convert.hpp", line 146: Error: Ambiguous partial specialization for boost::detail::is_char_array_to_stdstring<std::string, const char*>, boost::detail::is_char_array_to_stdstring<boost::container::basic_string<boost::detail::CharT, boost::detail::Traits, boost::detail::Alloc>, const boost::detail::CharT*> and boost::detail::is_char_array_to_stdstring<std::basic_string<boost::detail::CharT, boost::detail::Traits, boost::detail::Alloc>, const boost::detail::CharT*>.

Regression with boost::python 1.60
by Emmanuel 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Hello, I am not sure if this is the right place to do it, but I will try :-). I am having a regression in boost 1.60, I documented a small reproducer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35056398/typeerror-when-iterating-over-a… Does anyone have a clue ? Cheers, Emmanuel

[Odeint] Stiff System of differential equations
by jules 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hi all, I am currently working with a very large set of differential equations; it is a disease model with 20160 classes depending on which vaccine has been admnistered, history of infection, and age. To solve this I have been using the runge_kutta_fehlber78 controlled stepper with the integrate_const function. There I need to set the absolute_error, relative_error and the step_size. My issue is that the results from the solver seems to depend highly on the step_size and whether or not an observer is provided. Since the solver is adaptive I feel like the results should not depend on step_size and they should definitely not depend on the presence of an observer. My question is why would the results be related to the step_size or the observer? How would it be possible to get the same results regardless of the step_size and the presence of an observer? Could this be related to the system being stiff and if so how would it be possible to solve it (The jacobian is too complicated to calculate because of the population dynamics)? Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks, Jules

BGL, shortest path between two nearby nodes in a huge graph
by Paolo Bolzoni 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Dear list, I am a happy user of BGL, but recently I got stuck in a strange problem. I think I am missing the obvious, so I'll be happy to read the fine manual if it's the case. Just point me to the right direction. I need to find the shortest path between two nodes, for doing so I am using dijkstra with a custom visitor that stops the search (throwing an exception) when examine_vertex is called on the destination node. It worked fine, but it run strangely slow. After some profiling, it is clear that most of the time is used in the initialize_vertex function. The graph is fairly large, but the path I am looking for are fairly small (10 edges tops usually). It is possible to skip the initialize phase? Cheers, Paolo

Some help for betweenness centrality for undirected weighted graph
by Xinran Wang 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hi everyone, this is from Jason. I am a new user of Boost library. Nowadays, I am doing a research about betweenness centrality measure. I am very confused about how to use boost to calculate the betweenness centrality. I need to calculate the centrality score based on a undirected and weighted graph. The following code is what I tried to do. But this block of code can only be used for calculated for unweighted graph. Could anyone here can offer me examples? Thanks for any reply. #include <boost/graph/betweenness_centrality.hpp> #include <boost/graph/adjacency_list.hpp> #include <boost/graph/graphviz.hpp> typedef boost::property<boost::edge_weight_t, float> EdgeWeightProperty; typedef boost::adjacency_list < boost::listS, boost::vecS, boost::undirectedS, boost::no_property, EdgeWeightProperty > Graph; typedef boost::graph_traits < Graph >::vertex_descriptor vertex_descriptor; typedef boost::graph_traits < Graph >::edge_descriptor edge_descriptor; typedef std::pair<int, int> Edge; typedef std::map<Edge, int> StdEdgeIndexMap; void betweennessCentrality() { Graph g; Graph::vertex_descriptor a1 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a2 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a3 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a4 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a5 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a6 = boost::add_vertex(g); Graph::vertex_descriptor a7 = boost::add_vertex(g); EdgeWeightProperty weight0 = 1; boost::add_edge(a1, a2, weight0, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight1 = 1; boost::add_edge(a1, a3, weight1, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight2 = 1; boost::add_edge(a2, a3, weight2, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight3 = 1; boost::add_edge(a3, a4, weight3, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight4 = 1; boost::add_edge(a4, a5, weight4, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight5 = 1; boost::add_edge(a5, a6, weight5, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight6 = 1; boost::add_edge(a5, a7, weight6, g); EdgeWeightProperty weight7 = 1; boost::add_edge(a6, a7, weight7, g); typedef boost::property_map< Graph, boost::vertex_index_t>::type VertexIndexMap; VertexIndexMap v_index = get(boost::vertex_index, g); std::vector< double > v_centrality_vec(boost::num_vertices(g), 0.0); boost::iterator_property_map< std::vector< double >::iterator, VertexIndexMap > v_centrality_map(v_centrality_vec.begin(), v_index); brandes_betweenness_centrality( g, v_centrality_map); }

[math/stat] generating t-distributed random numbers
by U.Mutlu 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi, I've an old code that creates a normal-distributed random number between 0 and 1 (by using the polar method). Is it possible to convert this number to a t-distributed number (with v=5) using boost? Or, alternatively: how to generate t-distributed random numbers in the range 0 to 1 with v=5 (ie. degrees of freedom = 5) in boost?

[fusion] [mpl] binary MPL transform on empty fusion vectors
by Nathan Ridge 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi, I've run into an error in code involving MPL and Fusion which I've reduced to the following: #include <boost/mpl/transform.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/container/vector.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/mpl.hpp> struct predicate { template <typename T, typename U> struct apply { typedef T type; }; }; typedef boost::mpl::transform< boost::fusion::vector<>, boost::fusion::vector<>, predicate> ::type Result; This simple piece of code tries to perform a binary MPL transform on two fusion vectors of size 0. It produces the error reproduced below, with both gcc 5.1 and clang 3.7. My boost version is 1.60. I'm quite sure that this used to work with an older boost and compiler version combination, though I don't recall which exactly (something in the vicinity of boost 1.54 / gcc 4.8). Did I run into a regression, or should I not be expecting this to work in the first place? Should I be special-casing zero-length vectors?
