RE: [Boost-users] regex with msvc-stlport

I have seen the similar problem, when I built it using intel-win32. I would suggest you to check regex\user.hpp. There are a couple of macros need to be set for win32 dll. I am not sure what is the proper setting. Just play with it. // define this if the runtime library is a dll, and you // want BOOST_REGEX_DYN_LINK to set up dll exports/imports // with __declspec(dllexport)/__declspec(dllimport.) #define BOOST_REGEX_HAS_DLL_RUNTIME // define this if you want to dynamically link to regex, // if the runtime library is also a dll (Probably Win32 specific, // and has no effect unless BOOST_REGEX_HAS_DLL_RUNTIME is set): #define BOOST_REGEX_DYN_LINK // define this if you don't want the lib to automatically // select its link libraries: #define BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB Hope this will help. -----Original Message----- From: boost-users-bounces(a)lists.boost.org [mailto:boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org] On Behalf Of Juan Casanueva Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 7:13 AM To: boost-users(a)lists.boost.org Subject: [Boost-users] regex with msvc-stlport Hi, I am trying to build de regex boost library with msvc and stlport4.6.1, with no success!!! help!!!!

What I wrote holds true for raw pointers. I had assumed it also held true for the Boost smart pointers, but as you pointed out in the other email - and I verified with a quick test - the smart pointers get around this problem.

Huh - whaddya know; I just tried it with this program: int main() { boost::shared_ptr< T > t = CreateT(); t.reset(); T * tptr = CreateRawT(); delete tptr; } where CreateT and CreateRawT are exported from a DLL (and do the obvious thing). 't.reset()' works OK, but 'delete tptr' asserts on an invalid heap pointer. I'll have to study the shared_ptr implementation to see how it avoids this problem. -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.

I've been using it successfully across DLL boundaries with no problems. The biggest caveat is to ensure you are using the DLL version of the C Runtime library. If you use the static library version, then each DLL will have its own heap, and a pointer *must* be deallocated in the same DLL in which it was allocated. -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.

Are you sure about the different heaps? It's been my experience (with Visual Studio, at least) that allocating memory in one DLL and deallocating it in another leads to problems.

Using shared_ptr across shared library boundary
by Edward Diener 11 Mar '04

11 Mar '04

Is there any problem with using shared_ptr and passing an instance of it to a function in another shared library, such as a DLL under Windows ? Does the reference count get updated correctly when the copy is passed to a DLL function, so that when the last shared_ptr in either the original module or the DLL goers out of scope, the actual pointer is correctly deleted ? If this is not the case, that shared_ptr works correctly across DLL boundaries in the manner described, does instantiating and exporting shared_ptr template instances from the DLL to the module using the DLL solve the problem ?

boost::thread no parameter?
by GoochRules! 11 Mar '04

11 Mar '04

Greetings, I'm wondering why there is no option to pass a parameter to a thread function with boost's threads. With pthreads and Windows CreateThread I'm used to casting an object to a void*, and retrieving the object within the thread function. The only thing similar with boost::thread seems to be to create a struct with an operator()() and a constructor that takes a void*. operator()() then calls an external function with the passed void*. Just curious about this design decision. --M Peltzer

Hi Hossein, I know that Spirit can be used for scanning and lexical analysis, at least that where I use it for. I don't know about the rest, but I guess Spirit will help you out there too. In my little project I use it for parsing XML, HTML and other datafiles. For more info on spirit : http://spirit.sourceforge.net/ If you need a C/C++ parser, you might consider Wave, which uses Spirit, and is highly standard compliant. Hope this helps, Roel. >----- Oorspronkelijk bericht ----- >Van : Hossein Haeri [mailto:powerprogman@yahoo.com] >Verzonden : maandag , maart 8, 2004 01:07 PM >Aan : boost-users(a)lists.boost.org >Onderwerp : [Boost-users] Compiler Generator Tools > >Dear all, > >Who knows where I can find the compiler generation >stuff in the Boost repository?

Compile problem

This may be a silly question, but why does the following code give me a compile error (only on Linux BTW, not Windows): template<typename TreeIterT> void ClassName::compile_something(const TreeIterT& iter, compile_context &ctx) { const TreeIterT::value_type& ident = get_first_leaf(*iter); } In member function `void ClassName::compile_something(const TreeIterT&, CompileContext&)': 128: error: syntax error before `&' token Also: template<typename TreeNodeT> void ClassName::compile_something_else(const TreeNodeT &tree, compile_context &ctx) { TreeNodeT::const_iterator iter = tree.begin(); } In member function `void ClassName::compile_something_else(const 138: error: syntax error before `=' token Any idea what is causing this?
