boost::asio::steady_timer only firing once
by Christopher Pisz 16 Jul '19

16 Jul '19

I am trying to perform a task on an interval and I made a POC using boost::asio::steady_timer. When I debug it, it only performs the callback once and does not fire again. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any suggestions? // DoMouseEvents.cpp : This file contains the 'main' function. Program execution begins and ends there. // #include <boost/asio.hpp> #include "boost/asio/deadline_timer.hpp" #include<boost/bind.hpp> #include <chrono> #include <iostream> class Pooper { boost::asio::io_context & m_ioContext; boost::asio::steady_timer m_timer; public: Pooper(boost::asio::io_context & ioContext) : m_ioContext(ioContext) , m_timer(boost::asio::steady_timer(ioContext)) { } void Run() { m_timer.expires_from_now(std::chrono::seconds(5)); m_timer.async_wait(boost::bind(&Pooper::OnTimerExpired, this, boost::asio::placeholders::error)); } void OnTimerExpired(const boost::system::error_code & error) { if (error.failed()) { std::cerr << "boost error: Failed" << std::endl; } std::cout << "Poop" << std::endl; try { // Move the mouse int x = 500; int y = 500; if (!::SetCursorPos(x, y)) { int errorCode = GetLastError(); std::cerr << "SetCursorPos error: " << errorCode << std::endl; } // Left button down x = 65536 * 500; y = 65536 * 500; ::mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE | MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, x, y, NULL, NULL); // Left button up x = 65536 * 500; y = 65536 * 500; ::mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE | MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, x, y, NULL, NULL); m_timer.expires_from_now(std::chrono::seconds(5)); m_timer.async_wait(boost::bind(&Pooper::OnTimerExpired, this, boost::asio::placeholders::error)); } catch (std::exception &) { std::cerr << "An exception occured." << std::endl; } } }; int main() { boost::asio::io_context ioContext; auto pooper = Pooper(ioContext); pooper.Run(); ioContext.run(); std::cerr << "Exited..." << std::endl; }

[multiprecision] Getting the best performance on windows for uint128_t etc
by Neill Clift 14 Jul '19

14 Jul '19

Hi, I develop a program for generating optimal addition chains. I normally use 64 bit integers but in order to attack some conjectures I compile up my program with boost using uint128_t. In order to get some functionality I need I used the backend access to limbs. For example I need population count/hamming weight/binary digit count. I did this like this: static LPTYPER bits(NTYPE n) /*++ Calculates the number of 1 bits in a number. --*/ { LPTYPER b = 0; std::size_t size = n.backend().size(); boost::multiprecision::limb_type* p = n.backend().limbs(); for (std::size_t i = 0; i < size; i++) { b += (LPTYPER)__popcnt64(p[i]); } return b; } I use the same sort of logic to calculate Floor(Log2(n)) (number of largest bit set), to clear the bottom say b bits of an integer. Is this a reasonable (though probably not idea) way to go? I noted that the limbs are 32 bits on Windows and this leads me to my second question. How can I get the internals of boost using bigger chunks like 64 bit? It seems I need a compiler supporting __int64. I have access to the intel compiler (19) and MSVC but neither seem to change this. I tried LLVM but that seemed quite slow. I may not have put enough effort into investigating LLVM up to this point. Various bit operations seem overly slow in boost. For example I use sequences like this: Control &= Control + 1; Mask = ((Control - 1) ^ Control) >> 1; Control |= Mask; These seem to be bottlenecks under boost. That sequence above is meant to generate masks that straddle the first run of zero bits in control so 1010100000111111_2 produces a mask of 11111111111_2. Thanks. Neill.

A question regarding gregorian week_iterator
by Bill Moo 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

I can’t understand what, if indeed anything, I am doing wrong here. Using boost 1.69 on Arch Linux I am trying to use a gregorian::week_iterator to iterate a gregorian date_period that has a length of 365 which produces this output: Starts 2018-07-10 Ends 2019-07-10 true false true 365 >From this code: boost::gregorian::date_period dp{ m_Start, m_Ends } ; BOOST_LOG(lg) << "Starts " << boost::gregorian::to_iso_extended_string(dp.begin()) << " Ends " << boost::gregorian::to_iso_extended_string(dp.end()) << " " << isYear << " " << isMonth << " " << isWeek << " " << dp.length() ; The following is the code I am using to iterate the date_period: for(boost::gregorian::week_iterator wi = dp.begin(); wi != dp.end(); ++wi) { items.push_back(formatParams(pi, (*wi))) ; } However, when this code executes it eventually fails with the following error: Year is out of valid range: 1400..9999 In my formatParams method the code generates the correct strings, but it doesn’t stop at Jun 2019 as I’d expect but continues to run out to 2375! I would appreciate some feedback on this as I have identical code that uses a gregorian::month_iterator and this generates the 12 items from the same date_period range as I’d expect. -- Bill

boost interprocess data structure operating when process killed
by 吴昊 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

Hello, as I haven’t read the source code deeply, I doubt about what will happen when boost interprocess is handling data structure such as map (e.g. rbtree rotating) while the process is killed (whether or not -9) or the machine is shutdown. Will the inner structure like the rbtree be broken ? Or will interprocess library detect this and fix it ?

26 Jun '19

We don't have enough reviews yet, so we're extending the review by two weeks. Please review this small and useful library! >From the original announcement: The formal review of JeanHeyd Meneide's out_ptr library starts Sunday, June 16th and ends on Wednesday, June 26th. out_ptr is a library for making it easy to interoperate between smart pointers and traditional C-style initialization and allocation interfaces. It also enables doing so in a way that allows library authors to opt into speed optimizations for their smart pointers that give them performance equivalent to typical C pointers (see benchmarks ( https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr/benchmarks.adoc) and the Standard C++ proposal for more details). Online docs can be found here: https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr.adoc The GitHub repository is available here: https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr Also, there is an associated standards proposal: https://thephd.github.io/vendor/future_cxx/papers/d1132.html We encourage your participation in this review.

B2 release 4.0.0
by Rene Rivera 23 Jun '19

23 Jun '19

After even more years of development the landscape of build systems has changed considerably, and so has the landscape of compilers. This version marks the start of B2 transitioning to a C++ implementation. Initially this means that the engine will be compiled as C++ source but that source is still the base C implementation. Over time it will transform to a C++ code base in both the engine and build system. Some changes in this start: - Requires C++ 11 to build engine. - Simplified build scripts to make it easier to maintain. - Building with C++ optimizations gives an immediate performance improvement. *Other changes in this release:* - Add support for using prebuilt OpenSSL. -- *Damian Jarek* - Define the riscv architecture feature. -- *Andreas Schwab* - Add ARM64 as a valid architecture for MSVC. -- *Marc Sweetgall* - Set coverage flags, from coverage feature, for gcc and clang. -- *Damian Jarek* - Add s390x CPU and support in gcc/clang. -- *Neale Ferguson* - Support importing pkg-config packages. -- *Dmitry Arkhipov* - Support for leak sanitizer. -- *Damian Jarek* - Fix missing /manifest option in clang-win to fix admin elevation for exes - with "update" in the name. -- *Peter Dimov* - Add freertos to os feature. -- *tee3* - Default parallel jobs (-jX) to the available CPU threads. -- *Rene Rivera* - Simpler coverage feature. -- *Hans Dembinski* - Better stacks for sanitizers. -- *James E. King III* *WARNING*: The default number of parallel jobs has changed in this release from "1" to the number of cores. There are circumstances when that default can be larger than the allocated cpu resources, for instance in some virtualized container installs. *Continuously tested on:* - Linux Clang 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 - Linux GCC 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 - macOS Xcode 8.3.3, 9.0, 9.0.1, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.3.1, 9.4, 9.4.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.2.1 - Windows MinGW 8.1.0 - Windows VS 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 Documentation and more at <https://boostorg.github.io/build/> -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net

How to set up user-config.jam properly?

I am working on a user-config.jam file to build boost 1.70 against Android NDK r19. My jam file looks like this: ``` import os ; local ndk_cxx = [ os.environ CXX ] ; local ndk_ar = [ os.environ AR ] ; local ndk_ranlib = [ os.environ RANLIB ] ; local ndk_flags = [ os.environ CXXFLAGS ] ; using clang : x86 : "$(ndk_cxx)" : <cxxflags>"$(ndk_flags)" <archiver>"$(ndk_ar)" <ranlib>"$(ndk_ranlib)" <architecture>x86 <address-model>32 <binary-format>x86 <abi>x86 ; using clang : armeabi-v7a : "$(ndk_cxx)" : <cxxflags>"$(ndk_flags)" <archiver>"$(ndk_ar)" <ranlib>"$(ndk_ranlib)" <architecture>arm <address-model>32 <binary-format>elf <abi>aapcs ; ``` And my command line is: ``` ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR/boost || cat bootstrap.log ./b2 -j8 \ --without-python \ --without-test \ target-os=android \ toolset=clang-${ANDROID_ABI} \ variant=release \ threading=multi \ threadapi=pthread \ link=static \ runtime-link=shared \ install ``` When I run the commands above I get: ``` /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/feature.jam:314: in implied-subfeature from module feature error: "armeabi" is not a known subfeature value of <toolset>clang /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/feature.jam:497: in feature.validate-value-string from module feature /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/property.jam:341: in validate1 from module property /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/property.jam:367: in validate from module property /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/property.jam:376: in property.validate-property-sets from module property /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/toolset.jam:187: in toolset.flags from module toolset /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/tools/common.jam:447: in common.handle-options from module common /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/tools/clang-linux.jam:62: in clang-linux.init from module clang-linux /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/toolset.jam:44: in toolset.using from module toolset /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/tools/clang.jam:33: in clang.init from module clang /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/toolset.jam:44: in toolset.using from module toolset /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build/project.jam:1104: in using from module project-rules /home/build/user-config.jam:28: in modules.load from module user-config /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build-system.jam:255: in load-config from module build-system /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build-system.jam:453: in load-configuration-files from module build-system /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/build-system.jam:607: in load from module build-system /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/kernel/modules.jam:295: in import from module modules /_build/boost_1_70_0/tools/build/src/kernel/bootstrap.jam:139: in boost-build from module /_build/boost_1_70_0/boost-build.jam:17: in module scope from module ``` The value of `ANDROID_ABI` is either `x86` or `armeabi-v7a`.

What is "subfeature" for and what values does it accept? How does this map to the command line arguments? How should I best set up my user config jam file for providing different build parameters per architecture in a cross-compilation setting (building for Android)?

I am already using boost.unit successfully for other units and conversions with the help from the mailing list. I want to now define the correct strong type for this type for consistency.

Building Boost.Python for a custom Python installation

I have a build of Python I made that was installed (--prefix) at ~/python-3.5.2-asan/. I want to build Boost.Python against it. I have Boost 1.70.0. I have tried a variety of permutations of passing various --with-python options and such to both bootstrap and b2 with no success.

[Process] Zombie Processes left behind
by Ryan Ruhge 05 Jun '19

05 Jun '19

Boost Team: We are trying to use boost process to have an always running process spawn child processes in a fire and forget manner (don't wait or block on the process that was just spawned). The issue we are running into is that the child processes become zombie processes when finished until the parent process completes. However in our system the parent process is never intended to complete, it is always running and listening. We have provided code snippets which give a simple example of the symptom we are experiencing. It's an infinite loop (imitating our always running process) that spawns processes that run and then become zombies instead of finishing (I included a sleep so it doesn't spawn processes too quickly). Please advise on whether there is something else we can do, if we are using child or spawn wrong, or if we are using boost process in a manner that it is not intended to be used. Thanks, Ryan Ruhge #include <boost/process.hpp> using namespace std; int main() { while (true) { boost::process::spawn("sleep 10"); sleep(5); } } #include <boost/process.hpp> using namespace std; int main() { while (true) { boost::process::child childProcess("sleep 10"); childProcess.detach(); sleep(5); } }

Downloads of boost from Bintray.com are temporarily unavailable
by Marshall Clow 30 May '19

30 May '19

Apparently, Boost is being downloaded over 6000 times/day from Bintray, and we've reached the limits of their bandwidth for the month. We're trying to get them to increase our quota (and see if there's someone who is downloading boost over and over again), but at the present time, downloads from bintray are being rejected. Hopefully this will be a temporary situation. -- Marshall (boost release manager)

Re: [Boost-users] catmull_rom splines
by Nick Thompson 30 May '19

30 May '19

Yes, the Catmull-Rom curve is confusing for scientific application developers because it *creates* a parametrization. For example, if you solved by stepper an ODE y' = f(t,y) and got a solution skeleton {t_i, y_i}, the Catmull-Rom curve *wouldn't accept the time points t_i*. It's only interested in the y_i. Since the Catmull-Rom curve is used in computer graphics, you can kinda see why those guys don't care what the parametrization is. I'm currently working on extending the barycentric rational interpolator into higher dimensions; mathematically it's trivial but getting the interface right is (as always) the real problem.

I debugged my program and I saw that Catmull-Rom class internally change the parametrisation from 0 to m_max_s (for normal range 0 -1).

But the compact support of the basis functions means that the decision is not super important, and this choice will at least give reasonable-looking tangent vectors. >>> >>> Nick >>> >>> ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ >>> On Wednesday, May 29, 2019 12:08 PM, Giorgino R via Boost-users <boost-users(a)lists.boost.org> wrote: >>> >>>> Hi all, >>>> >>>> I am trying to interpolate some data with a catmull_rom spline available in boost math (interpolation).

catmull_rom splines
by Giorgino R 29 May '19

29 May '19

Hi all, I am trying to interpolate some data with a catmull_rom spline available in boost math (interpolation). However, the resulting spline has a strange behavior; especially, at its ends (see the attached image). Just out of curiosity, I also tried to normalise my data to [0-1] range. However, the line has had even worse behavior (see the attached image). Below, the c++ code segment of the interpolation is depicted: std::vector<std::array<double, 2>> points_intr(16); points_intr[0] = { 1.263270, 0.774614 }; points_intr[1] = { 1.876, 2.480 }; points_intr[2] = { 1.651110, 4.550 }; points_intr[3] = { 1.426340, 5.688 }; points_intr[4] = { 1.429, 7.054 }; points_intr[5] = { 2.073220, 8.377020 }; points_intr[6] = { 3.910, 9.140 }; points_intr[7] = { 6.430, 9.537 }; points_intr[8] = { 8.950, 9.859 }; points_intr[9] = { 11.470, 10.317 }; points_intr[10] = { 12.730, 10.6456 }; points_intr[11] = { 13.990, 11.0741 }; points_intr[12] = { 15.335, 11.6928 }; points_intr[13] = { 16.680, 12.5661 }; points_intr[14] = { 18.3538, 14.830 }; points_intr[15] = { 18.700, 16.056 }; bm::catmull_rom<std::array<double, 2>> interpolator_cr(std::move(points_intr)); std::vector<double> x_linspace_cr(100); std::vector<std::array<double, 2>> inter_points(100); linspace(1.263270, 18.700, 100, x_linspace_cr); // evaluation points along the line for (std::size_t i{0}; i < x_linspace_cr.size(); ++i) { inter_points[i] = interpolator_cr(x_linspace_cr[i]); } Should I have to add additional (ghost) points at both ends? If yes, is there any optimum way to calculate where exactly to poisition these points? I understand if I get the derivatives at both end I can calculate a straight line that the additional points should lie within. However, how should I calculate the distance from the end points? I hope I am not doing anything fundamentally wrong. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks!

bug or documentation missing boost posix_time time_duration not_a_date_time
by Erik Thiele 27 May '19

27 May '19

hi please compile this program: #include <boost/date_time/posix_time/ptime.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <vector> using namespace boost::posix_time; using namespace std; #define x(v) cout << #v << " : " << (v) << '\n'; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { time_duration a(not_a_date_time); time_duration b; x(a<b); x(a>b); x(a<=b); x(a>=b); x(b<a); x(b>a); x(b<=a); x(b>=a); x(a==b); x(b==a); x(a.is_special()); x(b.is_special()); vector<time_duration> v0, v1; v0.push_back(time_duration()); v0.push_back(time_duration(not_a_date_time)); sort(v0.begin(), v0.end()); v1.push_back(time_duration(not_a_date_time)); v1.push_back(time_duration()); sort(v1.begin(), v1.end()); x(v0==v1); return 0; } the output is: a<b : 0 a>b : 0 a<=b : 1 a>=b : 1 b<a : 0 b>a : 0 b<=a : 1 b>=a : 1 a==b : 0 b==a : 0 a.is_special() : 1 b.is_special() : 0 v0==v1 : 0 if the time_duration datatype is a complete partial order which is for example needed for it to be able to be sorted, then the above output is partly illegal: if not a<b and not b<a then must be a=b. but this is not the case. if a<=b and b<=a then must be a=b. but this is not the case. so as expected the two vectors v0 and v1 are not equal after being sorted even though they certainly should be! i do not understand why time_duration is behaving in such a strange way here. I am using time_duration(not_a_date_time) as a SQL-NULL value just like i am using date(not_a_date_time) and ptime(not_a_date_time) as SQL-NULL values. obviously I should not use time_duration(not_a_date_time). maybe this is the reason why time_duration() != time_duration(not_a_date_time)? I don't understand the design here. for example date()==date(not_a_date_time) and also ptime()==ptime(not_a_date_time) but not with time_duration. why??? why is there no documentation that time_duration is not a complete partial order and thus not sortable - at least when using not_a_date_time? cya erik

[Boost.Build] configure.builds and check-target-builds always build in debug mode
by David Callu 25 May '19

25 May '19

Hi, I try to add icu support in boost conan package, but on windows with msvc, the build never use icu. During icu detection in boost.locale, the has_icu.exe never build because configure.builds try to build in debug mode when I use property "variant=release" in b2 command line. I can see that in config.log written by b2 during build : b2 use icuucd.lib and icuind.lib instead of icuuc.lib and icuin.lib. So icu is not correctly detected, and so never used. If I bypass the has_icu test, boost locale build fine and have icu backend as expected. This behaviors only fail builds that use different library in release and debug mode, like icu build with msvc. Is it the correct behaviors ? - If yes this is a bad news for library with different library name in release and debug mode. - If no ... houston, we have a problem Best regards David

Re: [Boost-users] linker error boost with 1.69 and 1.70
by Danny K 21 May '19

21 May '19

I figured out my problem so please disregard my question. My problem was that zlib and bzip2 support was not being included. I developed a perl script that builds everything for me for Windows & Linux and somehow when the Linux script builds 1.69 or 1.70, it turns off zlib and bzip2 support. Not sure the cause but taking the command my perl script executes and running it the shell outside of perl, boost builds with the proper support for zlib/bzip2 in iostreams. Not sure what the change would be but I have a workaround. wr, Danny

linker error boost with 1.69 and 1.70
by Danny K 20 May '19

20 May '19

So I have been using boost for awhile. I compile boost the same way for all the versions and have been since 1.48. My platforms are CentOS 6 & 7 and Windows 10 vs2017. My code has compiled on all 3 platforms with Boost without a problem. My current version is 1.66 and I wanted to upgrade to 1.69. Under Windows, I build 1.69 with ZLIB & BZIP and my applications have no problems. I use zlib & bzip in the IOstreams library to read & write compressed files. So I built 1.69 under Linux the same way as I always have but I am now getting a linker error that I don't understand and I am stuck. The error starts with: API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x154): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::detail::zlib_base::before(char const*&, char const*, char*&, char*)' API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x15b): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::zlib::sync_flush' API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x165): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::detail::zlib_base::xinflate(int)' API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x177): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::detail::zlib_base::after(char const*&, char*&, bool)' API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x17e): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::zlib_error::check(int)' API_utiltyFunctions.cpp:(.text+0x185): undefined reference to `boost::iostreams::zlib::stream_end' The boost portion of my linker line is: -L[ path to boost 1.69] \ -lboost_random-1_69 \ -lboost_program_options-1_69 \ -lboost_date_time-1_69 \ -lboost_chrono-1_69 \ -lboost_regex-1_69 \ -lboost_thread-1_69 \ -lboost_exception-1_69 \ -lboost_filesystem-1_69 \ -lboost_system-1_69 \ -lboost_iostreams-1_69 -lrt -lbz2 -lz -lm Any help would be appreciate. Weirdly if I revert back to boost 1.66, I don't have a problem. I also tested this compilation against boost 1.70 and I get the same problem. I do compile boost statically with shared runtime libraries and threads. Respectfully, Danny K

by Michael Caisse 16 May '19

16 May '19

Peter Dimov has updated the Variant2 library based on review acceptance criteria. I have reviewed the changes and "OK" Variant2 to be included as a Boost library. My understanding is that Peter is targeting Variant2 to be available in the 1.71.0 release. Congratulations Peter! Thank you for your quick work in updating the library based on the review feedback. -- Michael Caisse Ciere Consulting ciere.com

Building boost 1_70_0 with PGI 18.5 on CentOS 7
by Christopher Harrop - NOAA Affiliate 16 May '19

16 May '19

Hi, I am having trouble building Boost 1_70_0 with PGI 18.5 on a Linux CentOS 7 system, and I am wondering if anyone has suggestions about how to get it working. I spent some time searching online for answers, but didn’t find anything recent that applied to my problem. I am a novice with boost, and so am not sure where to start digging for solutions. I have no issues with GCC or Intel compilers. My procedure, after I untar and cd into the boost directory, is as follows: ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=pgi —prefix=/path/to/install/boost export BUILD_TYPE=complete export LIBRARY_NAME=versioned export LIBRARY_TARGETS=shared,static ./b2 -j 12 install --build-type=${BUILD_TYPE} --layout=${LIBRARY_NAME} --target=${LIBRARY_TARGETS} This procedure appears to work fine for the intel-linux and gcc toolsets. But, for pgi, I get this: ==================================== +./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=pgi --prefix=/path/to/install/boost Building Boost.Build engine with toolset pgi... tools/build/src/engine/bin.linuxx86_64/b2 Detecting Python version... 2.7 Detecting Python root... /usr Unicode/ICU support for Boost.Regex?... /usr Generating Boost.Build configuration in project-config.jam for pgi...

[stacktrace]stacktrace print nothing on x86.
by Hao Jiang 16 May '19

16 May '19

Hello everyone, I found boost::stacktrace print no information on my machine in RELEASE mode when target is x86, i.e. the size of stacktrace is zero. But if target switched to x64, stacktrace worked fine. Is anyone knows the reason? OS: Windows 7(64) Compiler: MSVC 14 Boost ver. :1.67/1.69 Stacktrace config: BOOST_STACKTRACE_USE_WINDBG(_CACHED) Thanks, Hao Jiang.

Boost Graph write_grahml - wrong source- and target-ID's in edge of XML-File
by lila 13 May '19

13 May '19

Hi there, I want to create an xml-file out of my Graph... So I'm using the write_graphml Function with dynamic_properties. Everything is fine, I get a file, but there are wrong source- and target- ID's in the edge structs ... Here an example: <node id="n1"> <data key="key0">vertex_7</data> <data key="key2">bf88aa63-bff1-5c04-8daf-37a5e31981f6</data> <data key="key6">12.5</data> <data key="key7">7.5</data> </node> <edge id="e1" source="n1" target="n2"> <data key="key1">edge_4_5</data> <data key="key3">26c512cb-46d8-5eb5-8021-2aac9f492227</data> <data key="key4">45844430-f1ea-5355-b7ce-eb566fe89256</data> <data key="key5">ecac63d6-e531-5ce8-9578-13cb63d040de</data> </edge> In the edge there is the wrong source-ID - it should be the ID of Vertex 4 (source="n0") not 7 (source="n1") My Graph: struct vertex { float x; float y; string name; string uuid; }; struct edge { string source_v_uuid; //startpoint uuid string target_v_uuid; //endpoint uuid string name; // name - edge_from_src-Vertex_to_dest-Vertex string uuid; }; typedef boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::undirectedS, vertex, edge> myGraph; And my Properties: boost::dynamic_properties dyn_p; // fill vertex properties dyn_p.property("name", get(&vertex::name, graph)); dyn_p.property("x-value", get(&vertex::x, graph)); dyn_p.property("y-value", get(&vertex::y, graph)); dyn_p.property("uuid", get(&vertex::uuid, graph)); // fill edge properties dyn_p.property("name", get(&edge::name, graph)); dyn_p.property("v-src-uuid", get(&edge::source_v_uuid, graph)); dyn_p.property("v-dest-uuid", get(&edge::source_v_uuid, graph)); dyn_p.property("uuid", get(&edge::uuid, graph)); write_graphml(ofs, graph, dyn_p, true); I tried to create a property map by myself to set the UUID as the (vertex (source/target)) -ID's, but that changed nothing, there are still wrong source- and target- ID's in the edge struct. auto map = get(&vertex2::uuid, graph); write_graphml(ofs, graph, map, dyn_p, true); Can anybody help me? Or even give me a hint to figure out what is going wrong? -- Sent from: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Boost-Users-f2553780.html

[variant2] Review Results
by Michael Caisse 11 May '19

11 May '19

First, I would like to apologize to Peter and the those who took time to review Boost.Variant2 for the slow turn-around of a result. Thank you Peter for producing and submitting such a high-quality library for review. The code has been a pleasure to read and review. Thank you to the reviewers! Your participation in the process is what makes Boost libraries high-quality. I personally appreciate the time and effort that each of you have put into this review. ------------- Result ------------- Boost.Variant2 will be ACCEPTED after the following changes are made. An additional review will not be required. - The library will implement the strong guarantee: - If all alternatives have nothrow move, single buffer - else, double buffer - Improved documentation: - Addition of a tutorial - Addition of design motivation - Peter has indicated that triviality propagation will come in a future version. The initial Boost release need not support triviality propagation. - Expected will not be included but may be submitted for review at another time. ---------------- Review Verdicts ---------------- The following people provided reviews. Reject ---------- Andrezj Krzemienski Antony Polukhin Jan Herrmann Accept ---------- Emil Dotchevski Gavin Lambert Phil Endecott Conditionally Accept -------- Bjorn Reese Andrey Semashev Damian Jarek Niall Douglas Andrezj and Antony’s rejections were based on not having a valueless-by-exception state. Neither saw the selected design space worth considering and each believed the trade-off was dangerous for users. The Conditional Acceptance reviews voiced the following: - Strong preference for the strong guarantee (and therefore no need to provide “surprising” behaviour for the state after an exception.) - Improved documentation containing both tutorial and motivation sections. - Triviality propagation of the variant types. - Accepted without expected being contained. -------------- Some Thoughts -------------- There was a good amount of healthy discussion on the Developer Mail List concerning Variant2. I want to thank all of the participants for engaging with civility and keeping to the technical merits despite the galvanized opinions concerning valueless-by-exception and the basic exception guarantee. Over the past couple weeks I have re-read all of the discussion threads 3 or 4 times. While some people didn’t find value in the exchanges, this level of engagement about design trade-offs is one of the attributes that sets Boost reviews apart. They are not merely reviews discussing the quality of implementation but also the intricacies of design choices within the constraints and consistency of the language. When reviewers articulate their opinions the entire community learns and grows. The trade-offs that Peter made seem dangerous to some yet the exact correct formulation for others. There are even standard library implementers that don’t agree with std::variant’s valueless-by-exception. A high-quality variant that provides the strong exception guarantee is a type that has been missing from the programmer toolbox. Variant2 provides this. I will make an additional announcement to the community when the conditions for acceptance have been met. Thank you all for making Boost better! michael -- Michael Caisse Ciere Consulting ciere.com -- Michael Caisse Ciere Consulting ciere.com

filesystem::path crash on Windows when dealing with umlauts ( üëï )
by Gonzalo Garramuño 09 May '19

09 May '19

I am getting a crash on Windows when passing a path that contains umlauts (like sampëüö ) to the path constructor. I tried boost 1.69 and boost 1.60. Here's the code I am using: namespace fs = boost::filesystem; const char* tmp = setlocale(LC_ALL, N_("")); // Create and install global locale std::locale::global(boost::locale::generator().generate( N_("") )); // Make boost.filesystem use it fs::path::imbue(std::locale()); if ( !tmp ) tmp = setlocale( LC_ALL, NULL ); std::string program = argv[0]; fs::path file = fs::path( program ); // CRASH -- Gonzalo Garramuño

A property_tree like structure where key is also value?
by Jeanette C. 05 May '19

05 May '19

Hey hey, I need a hirarchical data representation in my program, which is well modelled by boost.property_tree, but my keys will also be my values. The tree will have a fixed depth, all keys/values are std::string and I expect maybe a few hundred leaves and maybe a hundred or so nodes in between. Is it worth looking for a different structure at all, considering that the program is designed for desktop systems? If so: is there another Boost library that would serve me better?

Using Boost 1.63 and 1.66 together with GNU unique global objects
by Jamie Jason 30 Apr '19

30 Apr '19

Apologies if this is a newbie question, but I have done my best to search Google, etc., and haven't been able to find a solution. The project I am working on uses Boost 1.63 statically linked and a third-party shared library that uses Boost 1.66 statically linked on CentOS 7. For reasons that are beyond my control, these are the versions that must be used. I am running into a problem with g++ 4.5.8 and the GNU extension to ELF for unique global symbols. Take as example the function get_netdb_category() in boost/asio/impl/error.ipp. The function has a static boost::asio::error::detail::netdb_category object that it returns a const reference to. When I use nm to inspect the main executable the symbol appears in the data segment and the type for boost::asio::error::detail::netdb_category()::instance is "u", which indicates that the compiler has marked this as a globally-unique symbol. The problem occurs when the loader loads the third-party shared library. Because the symbol boost::asio::error::detail::netdb_category()::instance has been marked as unique in the shared library as well (verified by running readelf on the .so), the loader decides that it will simply use the one from the executable. Because the shared library's version of the object is larger than the executable's version, when it is constructed it overwrites the 16 bytes beyond the end of the executable's object, trashing the contents of the data segment that were there previously. I tried using the -fno-gnu-unique flag when compiling our executable, but that doesn't fix the problem - it marks the symbol as weak in the main executable, but the shared library, because I cannot re-compile, still has the symbol marked as unique. I tried using dlopen with RTLD_LOCAL and that fixes the problem of overwriting the main executable's memory, however the corresponding symbols in the shared library have pointers back into the main executable's data segment (where the corresponding netdb_category static lives), which means that when if the shared library accesses these objects it will be following invalid pointers as it will overlay a larger v1.66 object onto a smaller v1.63 object. Has anyone encountered a problem like this? And, if so, did you find a good solution? Much thanks, Jamie

[locale] gettext functions: std::locale default argument not working
by Jeanette C. 29 Apr '19

29 Apr '19

Hey hey, it appears that the std::locale const &loc=std::locale() argument of the gettext functions for direct message translation doesn't properly pick up the program's global locale. Assume that messages have been extracted and translated. Consider the code snippet below: ... boost::locale::generator gen; std::locale loc = gen("de_DE"); std::locale::global(loc); // std::locale loc2; // will also work as argument to gettext string s = boost::locale::gettext("Hello world"); // output "Hello world" string t = boost::locale::gettext("Hello world",loc); // output "Hallo Welt" ... I am on boost 1.69.0-2, Arch Linux package, gcc 8.2.1, libstdc++ 6.0.25 (taken from the dynamic library filename), this is distributed with the GCC package. I'd appreciate any hint to solve this, since it would mean a lot of code editing otherwise.

[locale] Using generator with std::locale always yields name *
by Jeanette C. 29 Apr '19

29 Apr '19

Hey hey, When I use the boost::locale::generator to initialise an std::locale the std::locale.name() always yields "*". Examples: ... boost::locale::generator gen; std::locale loc = gen("en_US"); std::cout << loc.name(); ... output: * Whereas using the std::locale constructor with const char * yields the proper name: ... std::locale loc("en_US"); std::cout << loc.name(); ... Output: en_US I am running on Arch Linux, with Boost version 1.69.0-2 (the latest version in the official Arch package repositoy). Is there a caveat I overlooked or is there another way around this behaviour? One word of praise: the Boost locale library gave me the first pleasant experience of using localisation. I love the interface and think it very understandable even for a programmer of only mediocre level like myself. So: thank you!

[MP11] Loosing const-qualification on type result with GCC 4.8 only
by Mateusz Loskot 25 Apr '19

25 Apr '19

Hi, I prepared a lenghty MWE which reproduces my problem with type manipulation using MP11 that for some reason looses const-qualification on a ::type result Here it is at https://godbolt.org/z/eCsakP and copied below. I hope the XXXXXX comments make sense and important static assertions in the main() at the bottom explain what is the expected result. ``` #include <boost/mp11.hpp> #include <cstdint> #include <type_traits> namespace mp11 = boost::mp11; template <typename BitField, int FirstBit, int NumBits, bool IsMutable> struct bit_range_reference { /* long definition, irrelevant */ }; template <typename BitField, typename FirstBit, typename NumBits> struct bit_range_reference_type { using type = bit_range_reference < BitField, FirstBit::value, NumBits::value, true > const; // XXXXXX Why this const gets lost with GCC 4.8 XXXXXX }; template <typename BitField, typename RangeBitSizes> class bit_range_reference_list { template <typename FirstBit, typename NumBits> using reference_type = typename bit_range_reference_type < BitField, FirstBit, NumBits >::type; // XXXXXX Should carry the const, shouldn't? GCC >4.8 do. // If RangeBitSizes is mp11::mp_list_c<int,7,7,2> // then first_bit_list will be mp11::mp_list_c<int,0,7,14,16> using first_bit_list = mp11::mp_fold_q < RangeBitSizes, mp11::mp_list<std::integral_constant<int, 0>>, mp11::mp_bind < mp11::mp_push_back, mp11::_1, mp11::mp_bind < mp11::mp_plus, mp11::mp_bind<mp11::mp_back, mp11::_1>, mp11::_2 > > >; static_assert(mp11::mp_at_c<first_bit_list, 0>::value == 0, "first bit must be 0"); public: using type = mp11::mp_transform < reference_type, mp11::mp_pop_back<first_bit_list>, RangeBitSizes >; }; using reference3_list = typename bit_range_reference_list < std::uint8_t, mp11::mp_list_c<int, 3> >::type; int main() { using r1_t = mp11::mp_at_c<reference3_list, 0>; using r2_t = bit_range_reference<std::uint8_t, 0, 3, true>; using r2c_t= bit_range_reference<std::uint8_t, 0, 3, true> const; //#if defined(__GNUC__) && (__GNUC__ == 4) // GCC 4.8 compiles, later versions of GCC fail to compile static_assert(std::is_same<r1_t, r2_t>::value, "GCC says r1_t is const-qualified"); //#else // GCC 4.9, 5, 6, 7, 8 versions compile, GCC 4.8 fail to compile static_assert(std::is_same<r1_t, r2c_t>::value, "GCC says r1_t is NOT const-qualified"); //#endif } ``` To summary, I expect this to yield true: std::is_same < mp11::mp_at_c<reference3_list, 0> bit_range_reference<std::uint8_t, 0, 3, true> const > I got this confirmed by all GCC versions but GCC 4.8. (clang and MSVC also seem to agree with the GCC >= 4.9) Is mp11::mp_transform loosing const-qualification or have I made a mistake somewhere? I'm using Boost.MP11 from Boost 1.70 and from current develop branch Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

boost::xpressive use of before(...)
by Simon Giddings 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Good morning, In our project I have the enviable task of transforming a large number of perl regex into boost::xpressive static code in c++. To ensure that the code I write, I have put together a simple test app where I create the sregex object and can then test that the result is that which is exected. I am stuck with the use of before(...) Here is my test - which fails std::string strInput = "&9-A02FEfoo"; sregex re; re = bos >> as_xpr("&9-A02FE") >> before("foo"); if(regex_match(strInput, sm, re)) { strResult = "matched : " + sm[0].str(); } According to the documentation (v1.67) this should work. What am I doing wrong here ? Best regards Simon

[variant2] Review - Review period extended until April 15
by Michael Caisse 09 Apr '19

09 Apr '19

Hi all - The review period for Boost.Variant2 has bee extended to April 15. Thank you to those who have participated so far. There has been a fair amount of discussion about the merits of never valueless. A core design _feature_ of Variant2 is never valueless. You may have made different trade-offs. Understanding motives makes sense but in this review we are not trying to change this basic design choice. This paper by Peter discusses valueless variants some and may be useful reading: <http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0308r0.html> If you haven't started your review yet, you have time! Reviews ranging from detailed discussions of inner workings to a user-perspective of the library and documentation are all helpful. I personally believe we need more user-based reviews in Boost. So, feeling sheepish about reviewing? Don't! Your review is important in the process. Here is one more motivation if you are on the fence ... Peter's code is a joy to read. The library is extremely clean and the code is accessible. There might be all kinds of things you learn from reading the source. Thank you again community for staying involved. We get great libraries when people ask questions, review, and provide input to everything from the docs to the design. Happy coding! michael -- Michael Caisse Ciere Consulting ciere.com
