(Trying to use the tuple function for the first time.) When adding #include "boost/tuple/tuple_comparison.hpp" a compilation gives the following errors: [C++ Error] tuple_basic.hpp(158): E2434 Template declaration missing template parameters ('template<...>') [C++ Error] tuple_basic.hpp(158): E2238 Multiple declaration for 'element<N,T>' [C++ Error] tuple_basic.hpp(143): E2344 Earlier declaration of 'element<N,T>'

Thanks for your reply. But in fact since I download BOOST 1.30, the problem didn't occure anymore.

The problem only seemed to occur for me if I included boost\python.hpp in the precompiled header file (stdafx.h). If I moved the #include so that it wasn't precompiled, the INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (I have an english version of MSVC7) disappeared. Could this be the problem you are experiencing? Does anyone know of a better solution for this? It would be nice to be able to precompile boost headers ...

So is it a generic thing or is it part of some other > BOOST library. It's right under your nose, as they say ;=) The IntType is a parameter to the template, so it's whatever you tell the compiler you want it to be. Taking a snip at (ahem) random from one of the files: template<class IntType, IntType a, IntType c, IntType m> class linear_congruential { public: typedef IntType result_type; static const IntType multiplier = a; static const IntType increment = c; static const IntType modulus = m; static const bool has_fixed_range = true; static const result_type min_value; static const result_type max_value; explicit linear_congruential_fixed(IntType x0 = 1); // compiler-generated copy constructor and assignment operator are fine void seed(IntType x0); IntType operator()(); }; At this point, we don't know exactly what an "IntType" is. However, on the next lines: typedef random::linear_congruential<long, 16807L, 0, 2147483647L, 1043618065L> minstd_rand0; typedef random::linear_congruential<long, 48271L, 0, 2147483647L, 399268537L> minstd_rand; These typedefs provide typedefs that fix IntType as a long, with the various parameters converted to long. More detailed explanation about templates is beyond the scope of this list - it's really quite a basic topic. I'd suggest picking up a good C++ tutorial book. Koenig and Moo's "Accelerated C++" comes highly recommended (I haven't read it myself, but I have yet to hear a negative review of it). -- Jim

For most of the Boost library items, the header *IS* the entire library (that's the power of templates for you :-) The exceptions are the Python, Regex, Signal and Thread libraries - those you need to build.

A newbie question.
by Amit Bhatia 18 Jun '03

18 Jun '03

Hi, I have just downloaded boost 1.3.0 a couple of days ago. While going thropugh the documentation I read that it is not necessary to build the library, completely. As of now the uBLAS and the random number library seem to be most useful to me. I have this doubt that is it equally good practice to just include the .hpp files rather than building the whole libary. Does it mean a very messy code, and a rather very different way of compilation, etc ? Also was just wondering if there are seperate disc groups for each set of libaries like numerics/math in one place ? Thanks, amit.

Windows services have to respond to the Windows Service Control Manager (SCM) within a certain amount of time (a few seconds as I recall) or the SCM will assume the start has failed.

Python and hello.World class example
by David Brownell 18 Jun '03

18 Jun '03

I am trying to run the hello.World class example in the tutorial and am running into problems. I can compile the dll fine, and then copy the dll (and the boost_python.dll) into my python directory, and then start my Python interpreter. The library will import, but when I call either the greet or set methods, I get the following errors from within the Python interpreter: [greet]: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? TypeError: unbound method Boost.Python.function object must be called with World instance as first argument (got str instance instead) [set]: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? TypeError: unbound method Boost.Python.function object must be called with World instance as first argument (got nothing instead) I am failrly new to Python and even newer to Boost.Python, so there may be something very basic that I am missing. I am using boost 1.30, bjam to compile, MSVC 7.1, Python 2.2, and Windows XP. Note that I can compile and successfully execute the inital Hello World example (hello.cpp in the tutorial subdir). Thanks in advance for your help! David Brownell

My newbie questions are: 1) Is it compiler issue or BGL issue? Cannot we use optimization of gcc when using BGL? 2) I suppose gcc3.3 is good so if this is an BGL issue, where could the thing go wrong? How to fix it? Thanks, Michael

Yes, you can debug it. After starting the service, open the Task Manager and get the process ID. Then type "msdev -p <pid>" on a command line. If the error happens too quickly (e.g. on startup), put an infinite loop at the very start and break out of it with the debugger. int i=1; while (i > 0 ); is my favorite. Just change i to zero and everything starts going as normal (just don't forget to take it out!). Good Luck, - Mark P.S.

Maximum flow algorithms for interactive application
by Kai-Peter B�ckman 17 Jun '03

17 Jun '03

Hello fellow Boost users, I have been using the boost.graph library in an interactive application for solving the maximum flow problem using the push_relabel algorith. The application consists of the user building the graph network interactively, node by node and edge by edge. Currently the maximum flow for the whole system is recalculated after each change. In addition to the total maximum flow the individual flows in all edges are used by the application. The problem is that interactivity is lost when the amount of nodes approaches 10k with the number of edges varying between 20k-40k. My question is: Is there an algorithm that would let me quickly calculate the changed maxium flow solution after each change without needing to do the global calculations again? The idea here would be to amortize the running time over each interactive change and thus keep response times acceptable (<200ms). My intuition tells me something like this should be possible, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel. Thank you in advance. If someone replies by email I will summarize to the group. Have a nice summer. -- Kai-Peter Bäckman, kai-peter.backman(a)mistaril.com http://www.mistaril.com - Space Station Manager - PC strategy game

Solution for (some) Compilation Problems with Sun Forte 6.2
by Adalbert Perbandt 16 Jun '03

16 Jun '03

Hi there, a colleague of mine tried to build the Boost::filesystem library (from Boost 1.30.0) under Sun SPARC Solaris7 with the Forte6.2 aka Sun Workshop5.3 compiler and got this failure: >> Assertion: (../links/init.cc, line 972) while processing /opt/boost_1.30.0/boost/type_traits/alignment_of.hpp at line 45. He investigated this problem and found out that defining the preprocessor macro BOOST_NO_INCLASS_MEMBER_INITIALIZATION would solve this. So we changed the boost/config/compiler/sunpro_cc.hpp at line 33 as follows: # if (__SUNPRO_CC <= 0x530) || !defined(BOOST_STRICT_CONFIG) # define BOOST_NO_INCLASS_MEMBER_INITIALIZATION Now we can compile the filesystem library successfully. Could please one of the experts comment on this change or maybe include this in the next release? Regards, Adalbert Perbandt.

Newbee: Build/Installation Questions

Hi there, I'm still uncertain how to properly build and install boost libraries under Solaris 7.

To get the header files installed I ran $ bjam -sTOOLS=sunpro -sBUILD=install But this command did not install the header files which would be required to use the test library. Instead a complex directory structure was created below ../sunpro/install. Is there no way to automatically get all the header files that belong to the test lib plus the other boost header files used by this lib installed automatically? Many thanks in advance for any hint.

I seem to be having a difficult time using the Regex class in a service. It works wonderfully in a regular app. Can anyone help me out.. Basically, instantiating a regex class raises an exception. Any thoughts? Thanks Loren

Spirit for C++ style if expressions
by Vincent Finn 12 Jun '03

Hi, I am thinking of using spirit for C++ style expressions and am wondering if it is the way to go What I have will be something like ( (A != 192) AND ( (V > 0) AND (V < "89") ) ) What I need is to be able to parse this replace the AND, > etc... with operations, replace string numbers with real numbers and then apply the operation to a large number of A and V. I would have thought this would be quite a common usage but I haven't seem any samples doing it of partictuar importance is the delayed evaluation Anyone have an example of this? Vin

boost::condition and lock concept
by db10www 12 Jun '03

I have created a mutex class which is a model of the mutex concept. I also have lock classes for this mutex which models the lock concept (e.g. called CMyLock). (The reason for this is to implement a read/write mutex and associated read and write locks) According to the boost documentation I should be able to use this lock with the boost::condition but I get a compile time error:- 'm_mutex' : is not a member of 'CMyLock' This is due to the condition::wait method defined in condition.hpp making a reference to lock.m_mutex Surely boost::condition only needs a lock object to be an instance of a class which is a model of lock. The lock concept makes no reference to a member variable called m_mutex. Is this a bug of boost::condition or am I doing something wrong. Any ideas? Many thanks.
