[msm] Stuck in pseudo exit
by Chrisopher Vogl 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Hi all, I have got a sub state machine (called Calibrate) which is exited via a pseudo exit on an event called Ev_Exit. The event is triggered on the return of a synchronous D-Bus call. So far everything works fine. Now I wanted to use an async D-Bus call and trigger the event in the finished-handler of the asynchronous D-Bus call. I can see that the event is released and that the transition into the pseudo exit takes place but the control is not given back to the outer state machine, i.e. the following transition in the outer state machine is not executed: Row < Calibrate::exit_pt<PseudoExit> , Ev_Exit , CheckNFC , none , none >, Instead I get the log output that there is no transition for event Ev_Exit in the sub machine: user.notice tm-calibration: void hale::tmop::Calibration_::Calibrate_::CheckKconst::on_exit(const Event&, FSM&) [with Event = hale::tmop::Ev_Exit; FSM = boost::msm::back::state_machine<hale::tmop::Calibration_::Calibrate_>] user.notice tm-calibration: void hale::tmop::PseudoExit::on_entry(const Event&, FSM&) [with Event = hale::tmop::Ev_Exit; FSM = boost::msm::back::state_machine<hale::tmop::Calibration_::Calibrate_>] user.notice tm-calibration: void hale::tmop::Calibration_::Calibrate_::no_transition(const Event&, FSM&, int) [with FSM = boost::msm::back::state_machine<hale::tmop::Calibration_::Calibrate_>; Event = hale::tmop::Ev_Exit], No transition from state I get the same behaviour when I try to use Glib's signal_timeout() to generate timeout events in a sub machine. Then the sub machine gets also stuck in the pseudo exit. I'm using boost 1.53. The program is not multi-threaded and I'm using Glib's main loop. Part of transition table in sub machine called Calibrate: ... Row < CheckKconst , Ev_Exit , PseudoExit , none , is_exit_ok >, Row < CheckKconst , Ev_Exit , ShowDesc , showImpError , is_exit_error >, ... with enum ExitReason { EXIT_REASON_NONE, EXIT_REASON_OK, EXIT_REASON_TIMEOUT, EXIT_REASON_ERROR }; struct Ev_Exit { ExitReason exitReason_; std::string message_; int code_; Ev_Exit() : exitReason_( EXIT_REASON_NONE ), code_( 0 ) {} Ev_Exit( ExitReason exitReason, std::string message = "", int code = 0 ) : exitReason_( exitReason ), message_( message ), code_( code ) {} template <class Event> Ev_Exit( Event const& ) : exitReason_( EXIT_REASON_NONE ), code_( 0 ) {} }; struct is_exit_ok { template <class EVT, class FSM, class SourceState, class TargetState> bool operator()( EVT const& evt, FSM& fsm, SourceState& ss, TargetState& ts ) { return evt.exitReason_ == EXIT_REASON_OK; } }; struct PseudoExit : public msm::front::exit_pseudo_state<Ev_Exit> { template <class Event,class FSM> void on_entry( Event const& evt, FSM& fsm ) {} template <class Event,class FSM> void on_exit( Event const& evt, FSM& fsm ) {} };

[Asio] run_one does not seem to run signal handler but run does

Hi, I am reasonably new to Boost.Asio. Below is a short test program to catch CNTR C. It nearly works as i would have expected. #include <iostream> #include <boost/version.hpp> #define BOOST_ASIO_ENABLE_HANDLER_TRACKING #include <boost/asio.hpp> namespace asio = boost::asio; #define GCC_VERSION (__GNUC__*10000 + __GNUC_MINOR__*100 + __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ ) struct Sig_handler { Sig_handler(int& count, asio::signal_set& signals) : count_(count), signals_(signals) {} void operator()(const boost::system::error_code& ec, int signal_number) { if (!ec) { count_++; std::cout << "signal: " << signal_number << std::endl; if (count_ < 3) signals_.async_wait( Sig_handler(count_, signals_)); } else { std::cout << "Sig_handler error" << std::endl; } } int& count_; asio::signal_set& signals_; }; int main() { std::cout << "test_asio_sig starting " << std::endl; std::cout << "GCC VERSION " << GCC_VERSION << std::endl; std::cout << "BOOST VERSION " << BOOST_VERSION << std::endl; asio::io_service io_service; asio::signal_set signals(io_service, SIGINT); int count = 0; std::cout << "count " << count << std::endl; signals.async_wait( Sig_handler(count, signals) ); size_t num_handlers = io_service.run(); // size_t num_handlers = io_service.run_one(); // <<== NOTE std::cout << "num handlers " << num_handlers << std::endl; std::cout << "count " << count << std::endl; std::cout << "test_asio_sig finishing " << std::endl; } Here is the output after pressing CNTR C 3 times [robert@localhost misc]$ ./test_asio_sig test_asio_sig starting GCC VERSION 40902 BOOST VERSION 105700 count 0 @asio|1425176527.462503|0*1|signal_set@0x7fffcd9139b8.async_wait ^C(a)asio|1425176530.453067|>1|ec=system:0,signal_number=2 signal: 2 @asio|1425176530.453092|1*2|signal_set@0x7fffcd9139b8.async_wait @asio|1425176530.453102|<1| ^C(a)asio|1425176533.749159|>2|ec=system:0,signal_number=2 signal: 2 @asio|1425176533.749187|2*3|signal_set@0x7fffcd9139b8.async_wait @asio|1425176533.749191|<2| ^C(a)asio|1425176548.261061|>3|ec=system:0,signal_number=2 signal: 2 @asio|1425176548.261092|<3| num handlers 6 count 3 test_asio_sig finishing @asio|1425176548.261116|0|signal_set@0x7fffcd9139b8.cancel [robert@localhost misc]$ I don't understand why io_service.run() says 6 handlers where invoked but otherwise it seems OK. Now if i replace io_service.run() with io_service.run_one() i expected the handler to be invoked once when CNTR C is pressed.

This does not have a line with >1 indicating entering the handler and there is no output from the handler and count remains at 0. Could someone help me to understand this. [ I am using Fedora 21, gcc 4.9.2, x86_64, boost 1.57 ] kind regards

problems building
by Nathan Ridge 28 Feb '15

28 Feb '15

Hi list, I'm trying to build Boost for the first time in a while, and getting unexpected errors. I have a git checkout of the 'master' branch, but I've also tried with the 'boost-1.57.0' tag and had the same problem. The build command I'm running is './b2 --with-filesystem', and the errors I'm getting are of the following form: gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/system/build/gcc-4.9.0/release/threading-multi/error_code.o In file included from libs/system/src/error_code.cpp:16:0: ./boost/system/error_code.hpp:18:39: fatal error: boost/utility/enable_if.hpp: No such file or directory #include <boost/utility/enable_if.hpp> ^ compilation terminated.

What am I missing? Thanks, Nate [1] https://github.com/boostorg/system/blob/master/include/boost/system/error_c… [2] https://github.com/boostorg/utility/tree/master/include/boost/utility

[Units] Heterogeneous unit for pressure per time
by Dina Goldshtein 28 Feb '15

28 Feb '15

Hi, I asked about this in StackOverflow<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27519186/boost-heterogeneous-unit-bar-pe…> but didn't get any answers so I thought I'd try here as well. I need to create a unit which represents pressure per time, specifically Bar per Minute. I tried creating it in the same way as I created similar units before: typedef boost::units::derived_dimension<boost::units::length_base_dimension, -1, boost::units::mass_base_dimension, 1, boost::units::time_base_dimension, -3>::type pressure_roc_dimension; typedef boost::units::unit<pressure_roc_dimension, boost::units::make_system<boost::units::metric::bar_base_unit, boost::units::metric::minute_base_unit>::type> bar_per_minute_unit; BOOST_UNITS_STATIC_CONSTANT(BarPerMinute, bar_per_minute_unit::unit_type); typedef boost::units::quantity<bar_per_minute_unit, double> BarPerMinuteRoC; And then I try to use it: BarPerMinuteRoC bpm = 5.0 * BarPerMinute; But this line doesn't compile with quite a long error trail which I'm having a bit of trouble understanding fully. 1>c:\workspace\externals\boost_1_57_0\include\boost\units\detail\linear_algebra.hpp(197): error C2039: 'item' : is not a member of 'boost::units::dimensionless_type' 1>

homogeneous system can only be composed of linearly independent base units. In my case, I'm trying to mix bars (which in turn "contain" seconds as the time element) with minutes. This sounds problematic to me. But on the other hand, since I don't include mass and length base units in my system it seems to me that the base is independent after all. In any case, I searched online for an example of creating such a heterogeneous unit but didn't find anything comprehensible. Also, I read in the Boost documentation that a heterogeneous unit doesn't preserve information about how it was created. Does this mean I won't be able to, for instance, multiply BarPerMinuteRoC by Minute and get Bar back? Thanks a lot!

VMD library accepted
by Steven Watanabe 27 Feb '15

27 Feb '15

AMDG The VMD library submitted by Edward Diener is ACCEPTED into Boost. I apologize for the long delay for this announcement. Thanks to everyone who participated in the formal review * Nial Douglass * Bjorn Reese * Rodrigo Madera * Zhou Zhenghui * Matt Calabrese * Paul Mensonides Reviews for the library were generally positive. The library was considered to be a useful set of tools for macro programmers. Paul expressed concern about the way the the library handles v-sequences and v-identifiers. After some discussion, Edward has agreed that the interface could be significantly improved. Work Items: * Add examples and improved motivation in the documentation * Update the v-identifier/v-sequence interface based on Paul's comments * Fix inaccurate statements about Boost.Preprocessor per Paul In Christ, Steven Watanabe

[Regex] Cannot build Regex without ICU
by Rob Desbois 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

I want to build the Boost libs without ICU support in Regex, but have been unable to prevent it from being linked in. I've run the following commands on a freshly extracted distribution of 1.57: ./bootstrap.sh --without-icu --prefix=/home/rob/workspace/deps/boost/1.57.0/linux/x64/ ./b2 install The bootstrap stage output includes this, which seems to indicate it's behaving correctly: Unicode/ICU support for Boost.Regex?... disabled. The resulting project-config.jam makes no mention of ICU. The build log includes: - has_icu builds : yes - icu : yes The shared library dependencies for the resulting libboost_regex.so.1.57.0 then include: libicuuc.so.50 => /lib64/libicuuc.so.50 (0x00007f74e5e3b000) libicui18n.so.50 => /lib64/libicui18n.so.50 (0x00007f74e5a3b000) libicudata.so.50 => /lib64/libicudata.so.50 (0x00007f74e4467000) I know the docs for Boost.Regex specify the bootstrap argument as --disable-icu, however this is rejected as invalid, unlike the argument I provide. Have I messed up somewhere or is this a bug? TIA -- rob -- Rob Desbois http://theotherbranch.wordpress.com/

Why does read_xml call fail if my property tree contains char16_t?

Hi I have a property tree which has strings of char16_t as both key and value datatypes. When I try to call read_xml() to load an xml file into this tree it fails. The same code however works with wchar_t. Seems like its failing on parse_bom() function. The code and error message can be seen here: http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/3f922b43838fd7e8 Any tips on how to fix this issue. -- *Ashish Gudla*

[fusion] Why is the std::tuple adapter undocumented?

What it says on the tin really: Why is boost/fusion/adapted/std_tuple.hpp not documented at all? I'd like to use it but if it's undocumented because it's considered experimental then I'll use fusion's vector instead... TIA -- rob -- Rob Desbois http://theotherbranch.wordpress.com/
