Integrate Boost Server in DLL
by Jithendrakumar K 11 Dec '15

11 Dec '15

Hi, Can we use Boost ASIO async TCP Server example and integrate it into DLL, any example would be better. I want to make Boost Server up and running, when i run in DLL and i have to read values that come via LAN through Boost server in DLL for further processing I have tried as in this Tried_Solution <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33448734/how-to-integrate-boost-asio-ser…> . Please suggest if there's a way to achieve it. -- Regards, Jithendrakumar K, 8019514041.

[BGL] k-shortest path
by Ireneusz Szcześniak 11 Dec '15

11 Dec '15

Hi, I need to find k-shortest paths, but there is no such algorithm in BGL. I can get edge-disjoint k-shortest paths with a max-flow algorithm, but I don't need the k-shortest path to be edge-disjoint -- that's too strict for me. I would appreciate it if someone could share an implementation of the Yen or Eppstein algorithms using BGL. I found some implementations on the Internet, but they don't use BGL. Thanks & best, Irek

[boost][qvm] Formal review for QVM
by Adam Wulkiewicz 10 Dec '15

10 Dec '15

Dear Boost community, The formal review of Emil Dotchevski's QVM library begins on 7th Dec and ends on 16th Dec. Boost QVM defines a set of generic functions and operator overloads for working with quaternions, vectors and matrices of static size with the emphasis on 2, 3 and 4-dimensional operations needed in graphics, video games and simulation applications. While it provides its own quaternion, matrix and vector types, it is designed to work primarily with user-defined types through user specializations of the q_traits, v_traits and m_traits templates. QVM's source code is available on Github: https://github.com/zajo/boost-qvm Full documentation is also viewable on Github: http://zajo.github.io/boost-qvm/ We encourage your participation in this review. At a minimum, kindly state: - Whether you believe the library should be accepted into Boost * Conditions for acceptance - Your name - Your knowledge of the problem domain. You are strongly encouraged to also provide additional information: - What is your evaluation of the library's: * Design * Implementation * Documentation * Tests * Usefulness - Did you attempt to use the library? If so: * Which compiler(s) * What was the experience? Any problems? - How much effort did you put into your evaluation of the review? More information about the review process can be found here: http://www.boost.org/community/reviews.html We await your feedback! Best regards, Adam Wulkiewicz

[PostgreSQL+SOCI+BOOST] SOCI compile error in core\exchange-traits.h with PG and SOCI on Windows
by Lawry, Brian 10 Dec '15

10 Dec '15

Hi. This isn’t strictly a Boost question but I’ve gotten no response to the following issue posted on the SOCI-users list. I’m posting here in the hope that someone has experience building SOCI for PostgreSQL with Boost type support on Windows. Configuration: Using SOCI 3.2.3, Boost 1.59.0, PostgreSQL 9.4 (same with 9.5b2), and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 on Win 7 Pro 64-bit (everything but OS is 32-bit). Target is 32-bit SOCI DLL with PostgreSQL support and Boost integration (at least tuple). Ran 'soci_postgresql_test.exe' and all tests under 'SOCI PostgreSQL Tests' passed except: test 6 skipped (dynamic backend) NOTICE: table "soci_test" does not exist, skipping NOTICE: table "soci_json_test" does not exist, skipping NOTICE: table "soci_test" does not exist, skipping I can build an application that doesn't use boost::tuple without error. However, if I do use boost∷tuple, I get: c:\develop\soci-3.2.3\core\exchange-traits.h(40): error C2065: 'x_type' : undeclared identifier // ----example----------------------------------------------------- #include "stdafx.h" /* stdafx.h includes: #define _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL 0 #include "targetver.h" #include <stdio.h> #include <tchar.h> */ #include <string> #include <iostream> #include <boost/tuple/tuple.hpp> #include <boost-tuple.h> #include <soci.h> #include <soci-postgresql.h> #pragma comment(lib, "libsoci_core_3_2.lib") #pragma comment(lib, "libsoci_postgresql_3_2.lib") #pragma comment(lib, "libpq.lib") int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { soci::session sql(soci::postgresql, "host=localhost user=postgres password=XXXXX dbname=postgres port=5432"); sql << "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS t (i INTEGER, s TEXT)"; sql << "TRUNCATE TABLE t"; sql << "INSERT INTO t (i, s) VALUES (0, 'frist')"; int i; std::string s; sql << "SELECT i, s FROM t WHERE i = 0", soci::into(i), soci::into(s); std::cout << i << "\t" << s << std::endl; boost::tuple<int, std::string> r; // following line causes error C2065: 'x_type' : undeclared identifier in core\exchange-traits.h sql << "SELECT i, s FROM t WHERE i = 0", soci::into(r); std::cout << r.get<0>() << "\t" << r.get<1>() << std::endl; return(0); } //--------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks.

[BGL] Is vertex_descriptor always integer?
by Ireneusz Szcześniak 08 Dec '15

08 Dec '15

Hi, In my code I do: vector_property_map<edge_descriptor> pred(num_vertices(g)); auto rep = record_edge_predecessors(pred, on_edge_relaxed()); auto dv = make_dijkstra_visitor(rep); dijkstra_shortest_paths(g, s, visitor(dv)); But this assumes that the vertex_descriptor is integer, since I'm using vector_property. Does this assumption always hold, or should I choose the type of the property map based on the graph type? Thanks & best, Irek
