[spirit-qi] [attr] Invalid static_cast error
by 含露月含露月 03 Mar '17

03 Mar '17

Hi, I try to generate a string using qi::attr, and the following is the code. #include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp> namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi; int main(){ // ok qi::rule<char const *, std::string()> world = qi::attr("world"); qi::rule<char const *, std::string()> rule = qi::eps > world; // error: invalid static_cast from type 'const char [6]' to type 'char' // qi::rule<char const *, std::string()> rule = qi::eps > qi::attr("world"); } Do I miss something or it is a bug? How can I fix it without using extra rules or semantic actions. Platform: win7 64bit Compiler: gcc 4.9.1 Boost 1.63 Since I typed on my phone, forgive me if there are errors. Best regards, Yuan Yao

error running boost book

I get the following error when I cd to BOOST_ROOT/doc and run ../bjam My ~/user-config.jam looks fine. I pasted it bellow the error. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have spent a great deal of time trying to fix this. It looks like the doxygen.jam in the boost_1_63_0/tools/build/src/tools directory does not like the syngax of the doxygen rule in ~/user-config.jam. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Building the tti docs with automatic index generation disabled.

[serialize] using virtual inheritance causes compiler error
by Douwe Gelling 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

Hi all, When trying to serialize a class with a virtual base class, I'm getting compilation errors. It seems to be part of a bug in type_traits, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a workaround for making it work anyhow. ultimately, the error boils down to "error: virtual function 'A::foo' has more than one final overrider in 'boost_type_traits_internal_struct_X'", using the code listing below.. It's simplified as much as possible, but obviously I need virtual inheritance due to using diamond inheritance. #include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/base_object.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/export.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/serialization.hpp> struct A { virtual ~A(){}; virtual void foo() = 0; template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { } }; struct B : public virtual A { virtual void foo() { } template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { ar& boost::serialization::base_object<A>(*this); } }; struct C : public B { template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { ar& boost::serialization::base_object<B>(*this); } }; BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(C); int main() { C c; return 0; }

Re: [Boost-users] Fw: error running boost book

I attached my user-config.jam I also attached the output of ../b2 --debug-configuration, as the file, debug.txt. I went to the BOOST_ROOT directory and rebuilt the headers. Initially ./b2 headers, caused errors, because I had initially run b2 as "sudo ./b2 install". I chowned back to my user, and reran. After I reran I still got the same errors.

Looking at Boost DLL doc build file <https://github.com/boostorg/dll/blob/boost-1.63.0/doc/Jamfile.v2> it does globs for filling header files for the sources. Which would suggest that the headers aren't there. And hence you should try running "b2 headers" first. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail

[thread] Feature request: set_value/exception with deferred notification (not at_thread_exit)
by TONGARI J 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

boost::promise (so does std::promise) only supports set_value/exception and their at_thread_exit variants, while the at_thread_exit variants support deferred notification, but the point to trigger the notification is restricted to thread-exit. This is not sufficient for, e.g. coroutine usage. This is the same problem as shown in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/cpp/comments/4ctj2a/visual_studio_2015_update_2_co… If you want to write a "correct" adaptor for boost::future, currently you have to use extra storage when you get the return-value from the coroutine, and set the promise until final_suspend is reached. To efficiently address the problem, we need something like: * promise::set_value_deferred * promise::set_exception_deferred * promise::notify_deferred Thoughts?

libc++-5 doesn't know auto_ptr anymore
by bebuch 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

I just tried to compile one of my projects with LLVM-TOT and got a lot of error massages in boost's shared_ptr implementation because libc++ removes std::auto_ptr. (I don't use boost::shared_ptr directly, but via parts of boost::dll and boost:spirit::x3.) Is there a workaround? -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/libc-5-doesn-t-know-auto-ptr-anymore-tp4… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

serialization support for gcc ?
by Alain Miniussi 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Hi, In the serialization jam file (master), I see: <toolset>gcc:<cxxflags>"-fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden" with no mention of gcc version number. gcc-3.4.4, for one, does not support that option. Does that mean that the serialization library does not support the gcc-3.x serie ? Thanks Alain

Issues building Boost 1.63.0 on Solaris 11.3 x86 using Developer Studio 12.5

Has anyone found solutions to these issues? FYI, a set of libraries are still generated even after the above issues have occurred. I’m not sure how reliable are these libraries which I assume are unaffected by the above issues. Kinds regards, Leo

Issue with Boost.Test using Oracle Developer Studio 12.5
by Leo Carreon 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Hi, This is a continuation of the issues I’ve encountered with Boost 1.63.0 using Developer Studio 12.5. I’m assuming that even with the Boost 1.63.0 build issues that libraries unaffected by the build issues are usable. Therefore, I have attempted to build one of my small projects in both C++11 and C++14 modes. The builds of this small project failed with the following error message: "/opt/boost1.63.0/include/boost/test/unit_test_log.hpp", line 218: Error: boost::unit_test::unit_test_log_t::test_unit_skipped hides the virtual function boost::unit_test::test_observer::test_unit_skipped(const boost::unit_test::test_unit&). This error was encountered compiling a source file containing the following: #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE TestImport #include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp> Is this a Boost.Test issue or is it a Developer Studio 12.5 issue? If it is a Boost.Test issue, how do I resolve it? Kind regards, Leo
