uBlas matrix - storage class

Is there a performance difference between the different storage classes for matrix and vector? If so, which one is the most performant? I could not find any reference to this in the documentation ... :^( Many thanks - Geert

"Correct" way to return empty shared_ptr?
by dick.bridges＠tais.com 24 Apr '03

24 Apr '03

What is the 'correct' way to return a NULL/empty shared_ptr? For example, this works <snippet> shared_ptr<int> maybe_get_a_pointer() { shared_ptr<int> p; return(p); } </snippet> but seems 'klunky'. I've clearly missed something in the docs/examples somewhere. Can someone point me in the right direction? TIA

The libraries specified with -l are part of the file list, same as the object files and any library files specified by their full file name. The nasty thing is that backwards references are only resolved in object files, not in library files, so library files must be listed after the object files (and any other library files) that reference them. You need to take the libraries from LDFLAGS (perhaps into another variable) and put them at the end of the command line. Also you should be using CXX and CXXFLAGS for compiling C++ code, not CC and CFLAGS. Since you're building a pthreads program, you *must* define the macro _REENTRANT to get a threadsafe C library. As a shortcut, include -pthread in CXXFLAGS (this causes linking with -lpthread, too).

VC++ has produced that warning for a while now, and it's totally bogus.

Signal/Slot copy semantics.
by Jesper Bojesen 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

I have a problem with the sematics of the the signal connect method. Consider this simple program: #include <iostream> #include <boost/signal.hpp> struct HelloWorld { void operator()() const { std::cout << "Hello, World!, the parallel world exist at " << (void *) this << std::endl; } }; int main () { // Connect a HelloWorld slot HelloWorld hello; std::cout << "Main world at " << (void *) &hello << std::endl; boost::signal<void ()> sig; sig.connect(hello); sig (); std::cout << "Thats all folks!\n"; return 0; } It produces this output: >Main world at 0xbffff2e0 >Hello, World!, the parallel world exist at 0x8056128 >Thats all folks! My problem is that the object signalled is not the same object that I subscribed to the signal. Is this really what was inteded ? Is the any rationale behind this behaviour ? -- Jesper Bojesen Medical Insight Email: jbb(a)medical-insight.com Phone mobile: (+45) 40 99 55 03 Phone direct: (+45) 46 55 04 42 Fax: (+45) 46 55 11 66

UBLAS and algorithms
by David Johnson 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Hi, I'm looking to solve some matrix problems using conjugate gradient methods. CGS and GMRES to name a couple. I see where the matricies can be stored by the UBLAS classes, but I don't see any of the algorithms available in boost. Are they available somewhere? I've looked at packages like IML++ and see them there, but they appear to use different storage classes. Can anyone point me in the direction of where some boost compatible algorithms are? Thanks, Dave

Trouble grokking iterator adaptors
by Kris Braun 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Hi there, I could really use the features provided by iterator adaptors part of the library, but I'm having a lot of trouble getting a nested set of adaptors to compile. In one case, I'd like to return an iterator into std::map< std::string, boost::shared_ptr< ApiOption > >, and have it return references to options in which option->isTemplate( ) is false. Conceptually, I'd like a filter_iterator->indirect_iterator- >projection_iterator chain. I've been using this typedef to project onto the second member of the pair: typedef boost::projection_iterator_pair_generator< select_second< std::string, boost::shared_ptr< ApiOption > >, OptionMap::iterator, OptionMap::const_iterator > OptionMapIterators; but I've been at a loss to add indirect_iterator and filter_iterator into the mix. Can anyone help me get unstuck? Thank you in advance, Kris

The unholy triumvirate of Boost, MacOS X & gcc
by Paul-Michael Agapow 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Does any one have recent experience with compiling / installing Boost on a Mac using gcc? A brief vox-poll seems to say that most everyone on the Mac uses it with CodeWarrior, manually including it in their project. However I'm more interested in using gcc / ProjectBuilder, and distributing the source code to my programs. So, I need to know if my end-users are going to have any problems installing Boost? My attempts have been been discouraging. The first install of Spirit almost immediately consumed all the memory on my machine and thrashed. Installation of the full Boost failed with link errors reporting "unrecognised option shared". Editing this option out of the regex makefile, lead to the next problem, failures with the unittests. Suspecting I was missing something obvious, I handed the problem over to someone else who spend a few days following the same trail, eventually commenting out the unittests. Sure, I could include the boost source with every program I use it in, but this strikes me as untidy and means every time Boost updates, I have to update the x separate copies on my disk. Opinions or sympathies? p -- Dr Paul-Michael Agapow (p.agapow(a)ucl.ac.uk) Dept. Biology, University College London

Is it desirable that links be resolved? I suppose it is if the iterator is being used to walk a whole tree - but not if it's being used to list a single directory. Perhaps there is a need to include explicit support for links in the API. Windows has supported them since 2000, so they aren't just a Unix thing now.

Newbie boost help needed..
by Bryan Coon 22 Apr '03

22 Apr '03

Hi, I am totally new to boost and just wanted to ask a couple of simple questions... First, I compiled the boost libraries okay with msvc. I updated the include path in my vc++ 6.0, and can include boost files via #include <boost/xxx.hpp>. So far so good! I wanted to try some things out, like boost's mersenne twister random number generator. I first did this: #include <boost/random/mersenn_twister.hpp> And got no errors. Then I read there was a random.hpp for convenience so I changed this to: #include <boost/random.hpp> And received as a reward complaints: d:\dev\devproject\boost_1_30_0\boost\random\uniform_01.hpp(44) : error C2275: 'std::numeric_limits<`template-parameter258'>::is_integer' : illegal use of this type as an expression d:\dev\devproject\boost_1_30_0\boost\random\uniform_01.hpp(95) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::uniform_01<UniformRandomNumberGenerator,RealType>' being compiled There were 6 of these errors. What am I doing wrong? Also, is there a way to include the boost libs in vc++ where I get the autocompletion if I use boost:: ? It is very difficult to figure out how the libs are supposed to be used (for me) by looking at example code or the documentation. Autocompletion as if boost were part of my project would be very useful. Thanks, B

I'm kind of new to makefiles, having only used Visual C++ in Windows untill recently. I 've tried changing things around a bit, doesn't help. A minimal test program I wrote links fine with boost_thread though. My makefile looks like this: CC=g++ CFLAGS=-g LDFLAGS=-L/home/sub/Libs/alsa/lib -lasound -lboost_thread -lpthread alsatest: alsatest.o $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o alsatest SmallObj.o alsatest.o alsatest.o: smallobj.o $(CC) $(CFLAGS) alsatest.cpp -c smallobj.o: $(CC) $(CFLAGS) /usr/include/loki/SmallObj.cpp -c clean: rm -f *.o alsatest g++ complains about the same missing references no matter if I include the -lboost_thread or not. If someone could point out what I'm doing wrong I'd be grateful : )
