[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?

Boost Log: Use of operator<<
by Florian Lindner 21 Jan '16

21 Jan '16

Hello, I want to put a custom object called DynamicVector on the BOOG_LOG_SEV stream. For that I defined an operator<< template<typename Vector> typename std::enable_if<tarch::la::IsVector<Vector>::value, std::ostream&>::Type operator<< (std::ostream & os, const Vector & vector); IsVector<Vector> will be true, since template<typename Scalar> struct IsVector<DynamicVector<Scalar> > { static const int value = true; }; The operator itself is working: // getCoords returns a DynamicVector<double> std::cout << inMesh->vertices()[j].getCoords(); // compiles just fine. but BOOST_LOG_SEV(_log, boost::log::trivial::severity_level::error) << inMesh->vertices()[j].getCoords(); gives an compile error: /usr/include/boost/log/utility/formatting_ostream.hpp:799:19: error: invalid operands to binary expression ('ostream_type' (aka 'basic_ostream<char_type, traits_type>') and 'const tarch::la::DynamicVector<double>') strm.stream() << value; str.stream() seems to be an ostream_type which is an basic_ostream<char_type, traits_type>. I wonder why this isn't convertible to std::ostream, like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17269499/overloading-operator-for-boost-… and the comment at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/boost/log/utility/formatting_ostream.h… suggest. Any help appreciated! Thanks, Florian

Re: [Boost-users] [boost] Boost.Operators issue: polluting namespace of caller through argument-dependent lookup

[locale] boost::locale::format number formatting on OS X and Windows
by Michael Smith 21 Jan '16

21 Jan '16

Using Boost.Locale from Boost 1.60.0 (installed via homebrew, so it uses icu) on Mac OS X 10.11.2, I seem to be getting unexpected behavior for some of the boost::format number formatting. A short example program #include <boost/locale.hpp> int main(int argc, char** argv) { boost::locale::format fmt("{1,number} should be 1,25."); fmt % 1.25; boost::locale::generator gen; std::cout << fmt.str(gen("fr-fr.UTF-8")) << std::endl; return 0; } That produces 1,25 on Linux, and 1.25 on Windows (using mingw-w64) and Mac. Any idea why they'd represent it differently?

Let your visitor throw an exception to get out of the dijkstra shortest path function; use some version of the function that skips initialization to resume again (the existing dijkstra_shortest_path_no_init is not good enough, so you would have to make one). 2. Reimplement the dijkstra function as a coroutine. I have implemented both, but have only really used option 1; whereas option 2 remained a toy experiment. In both cases the tricky part was to properly initialize and keep track of(and not re-initialize on resume) all parameters that are input to the dijkstra function, i.e. color_map, queue, distance_map, etc. https://github.com/ahhz/resumable_dijkstra I used the lightweight stackless coroutine of Boost ASIO. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/coroutine .html >The control flow I need would probably look like this: start the first >Dijkstra search, on its first vertex it visits, "jump back out" and >start the second Dijkstra visitor.

boost serialization
by Виктория Доможакова 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

I use boost serialization in my project. I I conducted f an experiment: 1) I removed one line with the data in the boost archive file. 2) I started my project. 3) All variables initialized in the constructor. 4) Value of variables loaded from boost archive in order . 5) When queue comes to removing values , I get exeption (I handle exeption with try-catch ) and file didn't read to end and close. 6) But this variable is equal to the value next after removal . My question: why this variable is equal to the value next after removal . if this variable has value from constructor than it is more logic. -- Виктория Доможакова

[gsoc16] Attn: We need 2016 mentors and project ideas for Boost!
by Niall Douglas 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

Dear Boost community, We are now within one month of the beginning of Google Summer of Code 2016! Last year's GSoC was a particularly momentus one as we witnessed the approval by the community for Boost.Hana to enter Boost - congratulations to Louis and his mentor Joel for bringing to Boost a very exciting new C++ library which pushes C++ compilers to their limits. We have also seen greatly improved retention of GSoC students in the community thanks to the improved student selection procedures introduced last year, and the fresh blood brought into Boost has been very evident on the mailing list this year. As part of filling in our application for 2016, we must supply to Google a list of potential GSoC mentors and potential GSoC projects for summer 2016 in order to be approved as an organisation this year. Therefore a lengthy page of awesome project ideas at https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/SoC2016 before *February 8th* would be an enormous help to getting us approved again this year and bringing to Boost another US$35,000 of Google funding. If you think yourself able to mentor a student doing some work on Boost this summer, *please* consider adding a description of the proposed work item and your name to the list. Last year we had more slots awarded to us by Google than we had good combinations of student and mentor, so we had to return slots which I believe has not happened here at Boost GSoC in at least a decade. That means that your project ideas have a better chance than ever of receiving funding if you can find a good student, and that is best done by getting project ideas floated *early*. If you want to know more about mentoring a Google Summer of Code funded student work before you nominate yourself, please feel free to ask on the main Boost developers mailing list boost(a)lists.boost.org or via gsoc-admin(a)boost.org. Thank you in advance for your time. --- Boost C++ Libraries Google Summer of Code 2016 admin https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/SoC2016

Using Coroutines in the Visitor Pattern (use-case: BGL event visitor)
by Daniel Hofmann 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

(Disclaimer: this is not only specific to BGL, I can think of similar use-cases where the visitor pattern is used --- I will still explain it in the BGL context, as it is probably easier to understand) Suppose you have a BGL graph and want to implement s-t shortest path queries. It is possible to do this by using a bi-directional approach, that is starting a Dijkstra search [1] from the start and starting a additional Dijkstra search from the target. As soon as they "meet in the middle", you can unpack the two sub-paths. In terms of the BGL this would roughly look like the following (simplified, with synchronization and visitor omitted): Vertex middle; async(dijkstra_shortest_paths(g, start, visitor(v{middle}))); async(dijkstra_shortest_paths(g, target, visitor(v{middle}))); where the visitors single-step all vertices in their examine_vertex callback [2] and check if they met in the middle. While this is quite easy to implement with threading, is has its downsides, mainly in synchronization for this ping-pong play between the two visitors, resulting in contention on the synchronization locks. But also the overhead of using threads might be too high for smaller graphs. It then came to my mind that I could use Coroutines for cooperative multitasking, without the downsides that come with threading. My idea was to invert the callbacks using Coroutines as it is shown in the SAX parsing example [3], in order to get a lazy range of vertices each visitor examines. I then could simply walk the two ranges, terminating as soon as there is the same element in both. But due to way the dijkstra_shortest_path function adds an additional level of indirection I failed to implement this, and I have strong doubts that it is possible with Coroutines at all. I'm mainly struggling with wrapping my head around stopping and resuming the dijkstra_shortest_path function, when all I can modify is the visitor it takes. That is, the reason I can not make it work is that I can not launch two dijkstra_shortest_path functions asynchronously with just Coroutines. The control flow I need would probably look like this: start the first Dijkstra search, on its first vertex it visits, "jump back out" and start the second Dijkstra visitor. From there on ping-pong between the two visitors exclusively. And I'm not sure this is possible with the Coroutine approach. I appreciate any tips in this regard, even if it's a "just use your 15 lines of threading code instead of trying to be fancy" :) Cheers, Daniel J H [1] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/libs/graph/doc/dijkstra_shortest_paths… [2] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/libs/graph/doc/DijkstraVisitor.html [3] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/libs/coroutine/doc/html/coroutine/moti…

multiprecision thread safety
by Daniel Brake 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

Hi Boost, I have a couple of questions regarding thread safety and Boost.Multiprecision. I am writing a library, and would like to be able to use mpfr_float (packed into my own complex class) in differing variable precisions on multiple threads simultaneously. 1. Is this supported? I looked in documentation, but didn't find comments to that end. 2. Must I manually call mpfr_free_cache when terminating threads, as recommended by the mpfr documentation? see http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/mpfr.html, section 4.7 memory handling. If so, since Boost.Multiprecision claims to not change the default precision of mpfr_t, do I need to access the particular back end for the thread, and free its cache? Thanks, Daniel Brake danielthebrake(a)gmail.com

boost 1.55 asio tcp cpp03 chat_server example memory leaks
by Hung Ruo Han 14 Jan '16

Hi all i hope someone could give me a clue where to investigate... i'm running the chat_server example from boost http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/boost_asio/example/cpp03/chat… on visual studio 2010, windows 10 and i downloaded boost binaries from : http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/1.55.0/boost_1_5… i used a script to simulate 30 tcp clients, each thread behavior basically: 1. connect to tcp server 2. start a loop 3. send a message to tcp server 4. receive a message from tcp server 5. sleep 6. back to step 2 the strange fact is when i use windows task manager to monitor the memory consumption. The numbers from columns *private working set* and *shared working set* remains "stable" for almost 18 minutes and after that the values of *private working set* starts to increase almost 5 MB by minute. So my doubts are: 1. Does anyone ever seen anything similar before? 2. What could cause this?

[phoenix] [clang] error assigning function object
by Nathan Ridge 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hi there, I'm experiencing a compiler error in code that tries to assign a Boost.Phoenix function object returned by invoking a phoenix::function with a std::string as one of the bound parameters. I've reduced my error to the following minimal code: #include <string> #include <boost/phoenix/core/argument.hpp> #include <boost/phoenix/function.hpp> struct S { void operator()(std::string, int) const; }; boost::phoenix::function<S> lazy; auto func1 = lazy(std::string(), boost::phoenix::placeholders::_1); auto func2 = func1; void foo() { func2 = func1; } My compiler version is clang 3.7; the error does not occur with gcc 5.1. The error also goes away if I change the type of the first argument from std::string to a different type (like int). The compiler error is shown below. Any ideas as to what is going on? Am I doing something wrong, or did I run into a bug in Phoenix?

[Statechart] Implementing an internal timeout in an asynchronous state machine
by John Buonassisi 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hi there, I am looking for some advice on the best way to implement an internal timeout in an asynchronous state machine using the Boost Statechart library. My project requires an asynchronous state machine that multiple threads can queue events to. The asynchronous state machine will react to events and execute callback functions that are registered on creation of the state machine. So far, this hasn't been a problem, but I have hit a bit of a roadblock when handling timeouts. I need my asynchronous state machine class to start a timer in a certain reaction method, when this timer expires I need the scheduler to queue a timeout event. Basically, the timer will act as an interrupt, when it expires I need a timeout event to be immediately queued to the state machine event queue. Since asynchronous state machines are created and managed by a scheduler class (in my case boost::statechart::fifo_scheduler<>) how can I get the asynchronous state machine to queue a timeout event? If possible, I would like to encapsulate this timeout functionality, so client code that uses my derived asynchronous state machine does not have to deal with managing timeouts. My first thought is to have the asynchronous state machine class create a thread when the timer is started. The thread will continually check if the timer has expired and if it has, will queue a timeout event. The issue with this approach is that I would need to pass the scheduler and state machine handler to the thread function in order to queue the event. Obviously, the state machine does not have access to these objects and I am unsure if this is a safe approach. Any suggestions or help with this matter would be greatly appreciated! This is my first post to the mailing list so I hope this is the right arena for my question. Thanks, John Buonassisi

*newbie* 'BOOST_INTRUSIVE_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION_CALLABLE_WITH_ITERATION' : undeclared identifier
by Gregory Werner 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hi all new to the list. When trying to build a rather large project which uses boost, I get the following few lines 12 times during the build process: 7>c:\local\boost_1_60_0\boost\intrusive\detail\has_member_function_callable_with.hpp(303): error C2065: 'BOOST_INTRUSIVE_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION_CALLABLE_WITH_ITERATION' : undeclared identifier 7>c:\local\boost_1_60_0\boost\intrusive\detail\has_member_function_callable_with.hpp(320): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.

I am using VS2010 Professional Version with SP1. My compiler and boost libraries are both 32 bit. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything but same errors. These are the only errors which prevent my project from successful build. Any ideas as to what could cause this? -Greg

Feedback boost conan binary packages
by Luis 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Dear Boost Users, Disclaimer: I am founder and developer of conan.io C++ package manager. Please note that it is just a FOSS project, MIT license, fully decentralized, and although I'd like to promote the tool and receive feedback about it, there are already channels for that conversation in the github repos. What I'd really like is to get feedback about the Boost packages I am creating and maintaining in conan. I have generated almost 190 different binary packages for Boost versions 1.57-1.60 ( https://www.conan.io/search?q=Boost%20AND%20user:lasote) for Linux, Win, Mac and different flavours of compilers (gcc 4.7-5.3, VS12-14) and settings (Debug, Release). You can read a quick getting started on such Boost packages in: http://docs.conan.io/en/latest/examples/boost.html If someone has been able to try it, I'd like to know several things: - whether it is interesting to have pre-compiled packages or you always prefer to build from source (i.e. always using the --build option in conan). So far there are about 200 downloads of binary packages, but probably many people prefer to build from source. - It has dependencies to already existing zlib and bzip2 conan packages (can be shared or static). Are you fine with these? Any other Boost dependencies missing that you would like to automate? - It is probably the largest package so far, have you experienced slow downloads? You can report issues and feedback in the conan-boost repo: https://github.com/lasote/conan-boost/issues. Thanks very much, Luis

boost variant is not a literal type
by Robert Ramey 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

I want to use Boost.Variant constexpr function. In order to do this it has to be a literal type - which apparently it isn't. The rule for being a literal type are summarized here: http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/LiteralType a boost::variant isn't default constructable so it fails to qualify. Has anyone else had this problem before and managed to solve it in a convenient way? Robert Ramey

boost program_options
by avib369 . 06 Jan '16

06 Jan '16

There seems to be change/regression in boost program options. In boost/1.53. I used boost::program_options::variables_map vm; po::store( po::parse_command_line( argc, argv, desc_ , po::command_line_style::unix_style ^ po::command_line_style::allow_short), vm ); po::notify( vm ); This could handle arguments like: ./exe --help all ./exe --help summary However from boost 1.59, this no longer works, instead I have to use: ./exe --help=all ./exe --help=summary Is this a known change ? how do i get back to the old functionality ? Ta, Avi

Boost 1.60.0 breaks Boost.Log formatter on MSVC11
by Robert Rumpf 06 Jan '16

06 Jan '16

I’ve been happily using Boost.Log (and much of the rest of Boost) for years, but on upgrading to 1.60, I find that I get runtime errors on MSVC 11. I’ve tracked the problem back to a simple representative example (as provided with the Boost.Log library): http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/log/example/doc/tutorial_fmt_stre… The problematic portion of the example is the usage of character arrays when setting up the formatter, specifically: << ": <" << "> " The code compiles fine but then throws an exception at runtime, seemingly due to uninitialized data. Removing the strings in the formatter configuration makes the error disappear. I would guess that it has something to do with xvalues going into the formatter unintentionally, but this code has functioned fine on prior versions of Boost 1.59-1.54, and I can find nothing in the release notes that points me at where the problem might be. I am compiling with BOOST_SPIRIT_USE_PHOENIX_V3. Before I start doing lots of diffs, has anyone else experienced this problem, and is there any known solution or workaround? Thanks for all of the excellent work and support, Rob

[boost][review][qvm] QVM formal review result
by Adam Wulkiewicz 04 Jan '16

04 Jan '16

Dear Boost community, The review period for Emil Dotchevski's QVM library has concluded. I'd like to thank everyone who participated in the discussions, esspecially those who sent formal reviews. Only four votes were casted however more people commented on issues on the mailing list. Comments received during the course of the review were generally positive, with a number of technical issues identified that need to be addressed. The review identified no fundamental problems in the design or implementation of the library that would entail rejection. The final version of the library can be fully accepted once Emil has addressed the issues identified during the review. Therefore I'm happy to say: Emil Dotchevski's Boost.QVM library is CONDITIONALLY ACCEPTED. Full report can be found here: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2016/01/227027.php Regards, Adam
