Asio example 5 sagmentation fault
by Alessandro Candini 04 Sep '11

04 Sep '11

I'm really interested in exemple 5 of boost asio: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/doc/html/boost_asio/tutorial/tuttimer5… I've tried it with boost-1.47.0. I can compile without warnings using: g++ -Wall -pedantic -lboost_thread -lboost_system -o timer5 timer5.cpp but when I launch the executable it gives me a Segmentation fault. Commenting the code I found that the segmentation fault raise at the 3rd line of main: boost::thread t(boost::bind(&boost::asio::io_service::run, &io)); I'm trying on the following machine: Linux office-007 2.6.38-11-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 29 19:02:55 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Can anyone help me? -- Alessandro Candini MEEO S.r.l.

[test] Does boost.test support mock objects?
by Jonathon 04 Sep '11

04 Sep '11

Hi, One facility that I really love about Google test is their mock object framework. It facilitates the development of tests/stub objects. Note that this is also delivered in easy mock and mockpp. Does anyone know if Boost.Test offers such a thing? I've looked through the documentation and I couldn't find anything. Thanks, J

[range] What's the best way to initialize a new container from a range?
by Martin B. 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Hi! Say I have a range R and I want to construct a new container from the range R. Will I always have to repeat the expression yielding the range, or is there a shorter way? Example: std::vector<int> numbers( boost::irange(7, 42).begin(), boost::irange(7, 42).end() ); Note that it's just an example. Is it possible to create a container C from a range expression R in one step? Any helper function for this? cheers, Martin

[type_traits] deduce argument type of member function with function_traits
by alfC 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Is function_traits the right way to extract the argument type of a member function? In the following example I want to make the last line work. This will be part of larger question, on how to deduce the argument type of operator() for function objects in which operator() is not overloaded. #include <typeinfo> #include <iostream> #include <boost/type_traits/function_traits.hpp> #include <boost/type_traits/remove_pointer.hpp> using namespace std; double dsquare(double l){ return l*l; } int isquare(int l){ return l*l; } struct csquare_impl{ int do(char c) const{ return 'c'; } }; csquare_impl csquare; template<class F> void test(F f){ typename boost::function_traits<typename boost::remove_pointer<F>::type>::arg1_type test_var; cout << typeid(test_var).name() << endl; } int main(){ test(dsquare); // ok, prints "d"(double) test(isquare); // ok, prints "i"(int) test(csquare_impl::do); // not ok, want to print "c"(char) return 0; } Thanks, Alfredo

In this particular case you're being lucky because the index you're getting is the first one and the whole multi_index_container publicly derives from it. If you tried a different index it wouldn't have worked. In general you shouldn't rely on this trick not even for index #0. > Ok thanks for your help and a great lib!

This fails for two reasons: 1. After entries.replace(...), r.begin() points to a modified element that is out of its original range; hence, r is no longer a proper range (in this particular example, its begin iterator will point beyond its end iterator.) 2. As elements are reordered, some of them can potentially be relocated *before* r.end(), so even if you fix problem #1 you still can end up visiting elements twice. > Would it be more efficient to iterate backwards and do the > update, since than all the elements will not be rearranged? Not really, since other types of similar problems crop up. The following is a possible solution (using iterator pairs rather than ranges since ranges here seem to be more noisy that useful): std::pair<entry_data::iterator,entry_data::iterator> p= entries.equal_range(boost::make_tuple(false)); if(p.first!=p.second){ // non-empty range --(p.second); // solve problem #2 for(;;){ bool end=(p.first==p.second); index_data d=p.first; d.masked=true; entries.replace((p.first)++,d); //++ solves problem #1 if(end)break; } } > Is there also any way to use modify_key with composite index or > are composite index key extractors always read-only? composite_key extractors return an opaque type called composite_key_result that you might esentially trat as read-only: http://www.boost.org/libs/multi_index/doc/reference/key_extraction.html#com… So the short answer is you can't use modify_key with composite keys.

[type traits] Extension to operator detection -> choose your preferred naming
by Frédéric Bron 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

It is time to include the type trait extension to the official boost trunk. These traits can detect if you can use a given operator with given arguments. For example: has_plus<double, int>::value is true because the following program compiles without error: double lhs; int rhs; lhs+rhs; We have come to three proposed lists of names (A, B and C): https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/GuideLines/Naming/OperatorTraitNames I have included the corresponding names of standard keywords, standard function objects from <functional>, boost Proto and boost Operators. Please give your preference between A, B and C before Sept. 5th. Regards, Frédéric

64bit boost::regex link error
by Lloyd 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hi, I am trying to port a 32bit application built on 32bit windows to 64bit. We are using boost::regex library. We have successfully built 64 bit version of boost. When we try to link our application with boost::regex we get the following error. What could be the reason?
