Problems building Boost
by Ulf Johansson 15 Mar '04

15 Mar '04

I've downloaded Boost 1.31.0 and tried to build it using the standard bjam procedure from the getting started document. I have WinXP/Home and the standard edition of VC7.1 (.NET 2003). I've tried both the vc7.1 and the vc7.1-stlport toolsets. In both cases the following libraries are generated: boost_date_time boost_filesystem boost_signals boost_thread libbost_date_time libbost_prg_exec_monitor libbost_regex libbost_signals libbost_test_exec_monitor libbost_unit_test_framework During the build process I get compiler warnings because the standard version of VC won't do advanced optimizations, but otherwise there seems to be no problem. Bjam stops after having generated the above libraries. Shouldn't there be more? What's the difference between those starting with boost and those starting with libboost? Do I have to somehow generate the remaining libraries separately? Thanks!

Hi, I am getting the following error. I see that it is trying to link to the static library, but I still get this error. Would appreciate if someone can correct my usage. Linking to lib file: lib"boost_thread"-vc71-mt-sgd-1_31.lib c:\Boost\include\boost-1_31\boost\config\auto_link.hpp(269) : fatal error C1189: #error : "Mixing a dll boost library with a static runtime is a really bad idea..." Here is my sample: #define _MSC_VER 1310 #define BOOST_LIB_NAME "boost_thread" #define BOOST_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC "on"// Show library file details. #include <boost/config/auto_link.hpp> #include <boost/thread/thread.hpp> #include <iostream> void hello() { std::cout << "Hello world, I'm a thread!" << std::endl; } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { boost::thread thrd(&hello); thrd.join(); return 0; }

[BGL] Determining if a graph has a particular internal property?
by Douglas Gregor 15 Mar '04

15 Mar '04

Is this possible? A well-defined return type from get(p, g) when p is not an internal property of graph g would suffice. Doug

Are these types still in development or are they > abandoned? They are waiting for somebody to pick them up. To some extent, that already happened with rational numbers. There are a couple of more or less complete implementations laying around: * http://tinyurl.com/2qrpq, 'rational_c' implementation by Hugo Duncan; * http://tinyurl.com/39mjl, "static_rational.hpp" by Matthias Schabel (it's a part of YANL, his dimensional analysis library). The main reason one of them is not in the library yet is that their notation for arithmetic operations leaves something to be desired -- you have to write something like rational_plus<r1,r2> instead of mpl::plus<r1,r2> Besides this issue, AFAIK these are already usable. Of course, if you would like to improve them/contribute more optimal/clean/better in any other regard implementation, please do. As for 'fixed_c', I am not aware of any publicly available implementation. Again, contributions are more than welcome! > I'd like to continue my project using > mpl::rational_c and mpl::fixed_c as I need to make them work with the > mpl integral constants anyways. > > So is development on these templates halted, meaning I should just go > ahead and finish my types, or are the types coming soon enough so I > just should just hold off and wait for the cavalry to arrive? No, please go ahead! Cavalry have enough on their plates already (among other things, a new version of the library is upcoming, with plenty of new exciting and useful stuff like associative sequences), so progress on these two is totally in your hands. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering

date_time formatting compilation error
by Keith MacDonald 14 Mar '04

14 Mar '04

I'm trying to convert a gregorian::date to a string, as shown in the following code: // Build: cl /EHsc /I \CVS\boost dt.cpp #include <iostream> #include <boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp> int main() { boost::gregorian::date today(2004, boost::gregorian::Mar, 14); std::cout << today << std::endl; return 0; } When I compile it with Visual C++ 7.1, using Boost from CVS head, I get the following error: \CVS\boost\boost\lexical_cast.hpp(150) : error C2679: binary '>>' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'boost::date_time::date_formatter <date_type,format_type,charT>::string_type' (or there is no acceptable conversion) with [ date_type=boost::gregorian::date, format_type=boost::date_time::simple_format, charT=wchar_t ] The same thing happens when using to_simple_string and to_simple_string_type<char>, rather than operator<<. I actually want the result as a basic_string<wchar_t>, but all variations produce this same error. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Keith MacDonald

mpl rational_c and fixed_c
by Matt Calabrese 14 Mar '04

14 Mar '04

A couple of days ago I started work on a library where I need a way to represent rational numbers and fixed point precision numbers at compile time, so I started creating a compile-time rational number type following the style of integral_c in boost::mpl. After completing most operations, I notices that in the mpl/math directory there were already the beginnings of rational_c and fixed_c types, however, they are far from complete (in rational_c there are just two static constants for numerator and denominator and a self typedef, with no specialized operations). Are these types still in development or are they abandoned? I'd like to continue my project using mpl::rational_c and mpl::fixed_c as I need to make them work with the mpl integral constants anyways. So is development on these templates halted, meaning I should just go ahead and finish my types, or are the types coming soon enough so I just should just hold off and wait for the cavalry to arrive?

Hi, I am trying to build de regex boost library with msvc and stlport4.6.1, with no success!!! help!!!!

Heollo, guys, I try to wrap a c++ extension class requiring qt lib through boost.python, I failed always because of the following error: c:\Python23\include\object.h(343): error C2059: syntax error : ';' My code will link to qt-2.30nc lib (window version). I don't know why. Can someone give ahint how to fix it? Thank you very much.

RE: [Boost-users] regex with msvc-stlport
by Jia Pu 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

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!!!!

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'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.

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

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?

Graph, inv_adjacency_iterator_generator problem
by Peter Aronsson 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

Hi, I have a problem with traversing over all parents of a vertex. If I use (the undocumented?) inv_adjacency_iterator_generator class to return iterators for the parents (predecessors) of a vertex I get a compile error. It worked on an earlier version of the library (in debian testing), but does not work for the latest version(1.31.0). I think the problem is that it can no longer find a suitable constructor. Here is my code: // some typedefs removed...... typedef boost::graph_traits<TaskGraph>::in_edge_iterator InEdgeIterator; typedef boost::adjacency_list<boost::listS, boost::listS, boost::bidirectionalS, VertexProperty, EdgeProperty> TaskGraph; typedef boost::inv_adjacency_iterator_generator<TaskGraph, VertexID, InEdgeIterator>::type ParentsIterator; std::pair<ParentsIterator, ParentsIterator> parents(VertexID v, TaskGraph &tg) { InEdgeIterator e,e_end; tie(e,e_end) = in_edges(v,tg); ParentsIterator c(e),c_end(e_end); // problem here. No suitable constructor. return make_pair(e,e_end); } (Traversing through the children/predecessors works fine.)

mpl lambda facilities
by Matt Calabrese 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

I'm trying to create a metafunction which takes in a boost::mpl::vector containing spirit parser types, and yields a vector of the original vector's length plus one with each element representing the parser type made of the recursive boost::spirit::alternative of all of the original parser types from the corresponding element in the original vector and an epsilon_parser at the end. in other words, the metafunction should be able to take in: (using boost::mpl and boost::spirit) vector< chlit<>, strlit<>, range<> > and yield a result: vector< alternative< chlit<>, alternative< strlit<>, alternative< range<>, epsilon_parser > > >, alternative< strlit<>, alternative< range<>, epsilon_parser > >, alternative< range<>, epsilon_parser >, epsilon_parser > where empty is my own parser type, similar to epsilon_parser I'm still new to metaprogramming and the mpl lambda facilities and I'm having some trouble creating a metafunction which produces my desired type. This is what I've come up with, though it doesn't work - I'm assuming because of my second use of mpl::_1 in the nested template parameter of mpl::front in mpl::push_front (which I'd like to have represent the current state of the mpl::fold). template< typename vector_t > struct get_alternatives { typename mpl::fold_backward< vector_t, mpl::vector< epsilon_parser >, typename mpl::push_front< mpl::_1, spirit::alternative< mpl::_2, typename mpl::front< mpl::_1 >::type > >::type >::type type; }; Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

python library issue migrating from boost_1_30_2 to boost_1_31_0
by Marco Donizelli 09 Mar '04

Hi there, when I built the 1_30_2 Python Library, I got: libboost_python.so now, with 1_31_0, I get several libs but that one: libboost_python-gcc-1_31.a libboost_python-gcc-1_31.so libboost_python-gcc-1_31.so.1.31.0 libboost_python-gcc.a libboost_python-gcc-d-1_31.a libboost_python-gcc-d-1_31.so libboost_python-gcc-d-1_31.so.1.31.0 libboost_python-gcc-d.a libboost_python-gcc-d.so libboost_python-gcc-mt-1_31.a libboost_python-gcc-mt-1_31.so libboost_python-gcc-mt-1_31.so.1.31.0 libboost_python-gcc-mt.a libboost_python-gcc-mt-d-1_31.a libboost_python-gcc-mt-d-1_31.so libboost_python-gcc-mt-d-1_31.so.1.31.0 libboost_python-gcc-mt-d.a libboost_python-gcc-mt-d.so libboost_python-gcc-mt.so libboost_python-gcc.so Unless I made a mistake in the building step which prevented libboost_python.so to be created, the first solution that comes to my mind to solve this backward compatibility problem would be to create a symlink from libboost_python.so to one of the new libraries. The question is, what would you recommend: libboost_python-gcc.so or libboost_python-gcc-mt.so (or none of the above, but....) thanks a million marco

Changing case with regex_format
by Keith MacDonald 06 Mar '04

06 Mar '04

The following useful Perl expressions seem to have been omitted from regex_format: \l lowercase next char \u uppercase next char \L lowercase till \E \U uppercase till \E \E end case modification Was there a good reason for that? The only way I can see to implement those expressions is to take a copy of regex_format.hpp, then hack _reg_format_aux. I think that it would also be necessary to change the undocumented regex_traits class, to do upper case conversion, as it only seems to do lower casing at present. Is there an easier way? Thanks, Keith MacDonald

Futures revisited
by Slawomir Lisznianski 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Hello, During discussions on possible extensions to Boost.Threads, concept of Futures came up rather frequently. Below, I’d like to introduce a particular implementation available at www.rhapsodia.org of which requirements were defined as follows: 1. Provide means to register exception types with a "Future Registry". Rationale: I find it imperative that users should not have to define a list of exception types on each invocation yielding a Future object. Instead, provide the ability to register exception types with a Future Registry and bundle it with Future objects. I feel that compile time registration should be sufficient. 2. Work under the assumption that asynchronous invocations returning Futures and system threads are not coupled. In particular, Futures implementation should not relay on joining with a particular thread to perform synchronization for returning results. Rationale: Although most prevalent, the technique of joining with a particular thread to synchronize on returning result is too limiting. It implies that each task be run on a dedicated thread, specially created to handle it and destroyed to meet with a caller using a Future. Although this approach may be adequate under certain conditions, it generally tends to be expensive on system resources and disorganizes the application. For example, it’s impossible to control the number of concurrently running threads. It may also perform poorly if executed code happens to run shortly as the overhead of creating a thread and cleaning up after it may be significant. More robust approach is to use a queue and a thread pool for running tasks. This adds complexity on the synchronization side, as we can no longer rely on a lifetime of a thread to join with Future’s result. 3. Ability to utilize Futures with arbitrary code without explicit support for them. Rationale: For implementation to be widely adopted, it should be possible to turn just about any function call into a Future-armored asynchronous invocation. No explicit thread synchronization primitives should be used as well. 4. Implement using existing Boost.Threads facilities only. Rationale: Boost.Threads library provides enough support to implement Futures paradigm that meets requirements listed here. 5. STL and Boost compatible. For example, storing Futures in an STL container. Be strongly typed. Futures implementation and usage patterns must naturally coexist with STL and Boost code. Additionally, compile-time type validation is key to safer code. Attached is a sample file from Rhapsodia library showing the use of Futures. Regareds, Slawomir Lisznianski [ www.rhapsodia.org ]

Constructor in for adjacency_matrix missing?
by Heiko Bauke 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Hello, since some weeks I'm using the BGL. It's really a great library. But I'm a bit confused about the documentation for the template class adjacency_matrix. According to the BGL-book and also the online documentation there should be three constructors for adjacency_matrix: adjacency_matrix(vertices_size_type n, const GraphProperty& p = GraphProperty()) template <typename EdgeIterator> adjacency_matrix(EdgeIterator first, EdgeIterator last, vertices_size_type n, const GraphProperty& p = GraphProperty()) and template <typename EdgeIterator, typename EdgePropertyIterator> adjacency_matrix(EdgeIterator first, EdgeIterator last, EdgePropertyIterator ep_iter, vertices_size_type n, const GraphProperty& p = GraphProperty()) but actually in boost/graph/adjacency_matrix.hpp is only the constructor adjacency_matrix(vertices_size_type n_vertices) is defined. So it's not possible to construct an adjacency_matrix from a pair of iterators (as it is possible for adjacency_list). Has this constructor been removed or never been implemented? Such a constructor would be very useful for me. Another point that confuses me is that the template parameter GraphProperty for template <typename Directed = directedS, typename VertexProperty = no_property, typename EdgeProperty = no_property, typename GraphProperty = no_property, typename Allocator = std::allocator<bool> > class adjacency_matrix; seams never been used for the implementation of this class. regards, Heiko P.S.

jeff suggested, >>You could also look at the STLPort hast table. I too recently wanted to use a hash table and found that neither VC++ 6 not Boost have one. I investigated STLPort thinking that I could just use a one or two .h files to get a hast table template. I carried out a number if iterations involving installing more and more STLPort files to the point that I might as well have installed the whole thing, something I did not want to do as I already have STL as provided by VC++, and Boost of which I'm using only a very small part. The outcome was that I chose another collection type rather than have two STL implementations installed (who knows what type of problems that would have caused). I understand that VC++ 7 does have a hash table implementation. You have to be very careful looking at the documentation at the Microsoft web site as they appear not to distinguish between documentation for V7 and V6.

No, but there are common extensions to the standard containers library (aka STL) that are included with many compilers, called hash_map and hash_set. Unfortunately there are several implementations of these which do not have quite the same interface. Ben.

Where is the jam_src Makefile?
by Dr Mark H Phillips 04 Mar '04

04 Mar '04

Hi, I am trying to compile a bjam executable from scratch (under Linux). In the file: boost_1_31_0/tools/build/jam_src/README it says: The Makefile (UNIX, NT), build.com (VMS), Build.mpw (Mac MPW) are for bootstrapping. Once jam is built, it can rebuild itself. But I can't find the Makefile anywhere! It is not in that directory, and I can't find it anywhere else? Am I blind, or is it missing? Thanks, Mark.

Boost (& Visual Studio 2003) for Dummies?
by Matthew Jankowski 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hey all, My need is to combine a program I've written with some linear algebra. I can generally do most basic tasks in C/C++, but not yet derived classes and the like. Anyway, not wanting to reinvent the wheel, my searches revealed that 'boost' might be a good source of code for some math functions I will need, essentially matrix operations. I read the getting started page http://boost.org/more/getting_started.html, all I managed to do was run the batch file in the tools/build folder, but I don't think this installed any libraries, or if it did, it didn't put them where I need them..I don't have much experience working from the command line in Windows. Boost looks good, can anyone help me get started? Thanks, Matt

Boost threads bug!
by Roger Wilco 01 Mar '04

01 Mar '04

On Win32: { // Verify boost tss bug is fixed. (still present as of 1.31.0) // This bug will not trigger until application termination. boost::thread_specific_ptr<bool> tss; bool * testPtr = new bool; tss.reset(testPtr); tss.reset(NULL); // testPtr is deleted and is now invalid. tss.get() returns NULL. // When tss goes out of scope, an unpatched Boost will erroneously delete testPtr a second time. } I've posted and emailed this bug at least a dozen times now... I hope this gets through this time. This bug seems very blatant; like it would affect lots of people. Is this bug known? Is Boost threads being actively maintained? This bug has been present for at least a year.

shared_ptr casts
by Hickman, Greg 01 Mar '04

01 Mar '04

I note that the shared_ptr casting functions have new names in the current release, but I'm just wondering why there is no longer a 'polymophic_cast' function provided? It's not a big deal to me, but I'm curious about the rationale.

My misunderstanding about what was the derived work in your "yes" above. The rest of my post was based on that misunderstanding. [snip] > > Whatever the conclusion I think this needs to be in the FAQ. > > Patches welcomed I'm happy to provide a patch once I'm reasonably sure I understand the license. I'm assuming an email discussion will be more productive than patches in the meantime. I have one more question that I have a proposed FAQ answer for, but my "answer" is based purely on what I think it should be, not an understanding of the law. The point that confuses me is: If a program uses boost, the binary distro doesn't need to contain the license, but it is a derivative work. As I understand it, a derivative work contains exclusive rights both the "preexisting material" author and "contributed material" author. This in turn means there must be some form of agreement as to how the derivative work can be distributed. The boost license seems to deal with that by saying that the derivative work must contain the boost license wording unless the derivative work is object code. That seems to result in a reasonably clear rule for derivative works that are not object code. What I'm not sure on is whether the grant to allow derivative works, combined with permission to omit the license wording from object code, gives the "contributing author" the right to distribute the object code "derived work" under any terms/license that author choses? Here is my proposed "patch" in a form suitable for forwarding to lawyers for "testing". Q: Does #include <boost/any_old_header.hpp> make the including file a derived work? A: No. That is use, but not derivation. But if instead of #include, you pasted in a legally significant portion of <boost/any_old_header.hpp> , that would make your program a derived work. Note that if you pasted in code from several sources, your code might become a derived work of each of those sources. Source - Beman Dawes in http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/boost/1686928 Q: Is the object file produced by compiling a source file which contains #include <boost/any_old_header.hpp> a derived work? A: Yes. However, the license explicitly grants the right to distribute object code derivative works (the result of compiling source which includes boost files) without the boost license. Q: So I can apply my own choice of license terms to the object code? A: Yes. Is this legally and "intently" correct?

I'm now having a very similar problem with a slightly more complicated example (that builds on the first): template< class Iterator > struct harder_iterator { typedef simple_iterator< Iterator >::type inner_type; typedef boost::indirect_iterator< inner_type > type; static type Create( const Iterator& iter ) { return type( inner_type( iter ) ); } }; This "composite" iterator not only has problems with comparison, but assignment from non-const to const as well. Is there a way to handle this case? Thanks, Kris __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard - Read only the mail you want. http://antispam.yahoo.com/tools

building boost 1.31.0

Hi, I have not been able to build version 1.31.0. I run bjam -sTOOLS=gcc-nocygwin Basically, I get a lot of undefined references from the linker. The linker cannot find "cpp_main", "init_unit_test_suite", and, so on. It seems to be a problem with the testing, regression testing, unit testing, etc. Greg Silverman Northrop Grumman San Jose, CA

lambda / boost usage questions
by Luis De la Parra 26 Feb '04

26 Feb '04

hello, I don't have much experience with boost, so I'm having problems getting boost lambda to work...hope someone here can point me in the right direction. I have: class Song {public: string artist( ) const { return m_artist } string title( ) const { return m_title } private: string m_artist, m_title; } typedef boost::shared_ptr<Song> pSong; vector<pSong> c; and I am trying to use lambda to find a song in c which matches a certain artist and title...something like iterator it = find_if( c.begin(), c.end(), something ) but I havn't figured out what "something" should look like I've tried find_if(begin(),end(), (_1->artist() == "a1" && _1->title = "t1" ) ); but the compiler -- or I =) -- doesn't seem to know the type of _1 --> error: base operand of `->' has non-pointer type `const boost::lambda::lambda_functor<boost::lambda::placeholder<1> >' If I try it = find_if(begin(),end(), boost::bind(&Song::artist,_1) == "a1" ); it fails because "_1" is ambiguos (defined as lambda/placeholder and boost/arg ) using boost::lambda::bind (and not including the "normal" bind ) gives a bunch cryptic errors... I've tried several other variants with lambda / lambda::bind / boost::bind but I havn't figured it out... can anyone help me out? I'd also like to know what's the difference between boost::bind and boost::lambda::bind ? Also... is there a way to know when a lambda object is going to be constructed?, it's probably just that I don't know much about the BLL, but in cases where you have several nested lambdas and binds, I'm not sure which lambda objects will get constructed. regards, luis

bug in numeric_cast<unsigned long>, <unsigned char>, and <unsigne d int> in gcc 3.3.2
by King, William D 26 Feb '04

26 Feb '04

Hello, I am seeing a bug that the regression tests miss for numeric_cast<unsigned long> with gcc 3.3.2. Specifically, the following code is throwing an exception: double small_value = 1.25; unsigned long l=0; l = numeric_cast<unsigned long>(small_value); // throws exception! unsinged char c=0; c = numeric_cast<unsigned char>(small_value); // throws exception! I am under the impression that numeric_cast is supposed to accept losses of precision (by truncating the fractional values), and to throw exceptions only if there is a range or sign error. Is this so? This error happens only when I try to cast a value with a non-zero fraction; i.e. 1.25 breaks but 1.0 is fine. It only occurs for unsigned types -- signed int, char, and long appear to work correctly. I have found the same incorrect behavior with gcc 3.3.2 on both solaris and linux. Using sunpro on solaris, the same code runs correctly. The regression tests don't catch this, since they only test numeric_cast with integral values 1 and LONG_MAX. Any ideas? It looks like a compiler problem to me. Davis King william.d.king(a)bankofamerica.com

Boost.Test and Threads
by p.klotz＠icoserve.com 26 Feb '04

26 Feb '04

Hi After our migration from Boost 1.30.2 to Boost 1.31.0 several multithreaded tests no longer work stable. We tracked it down to the macros BOOST_UT_LOG_BEGIN and BOOST_UT_LOG_END. When one protects this macro calls with a mutex, the tests work stable again. After the investigation we found 'Support for the testing of multithreaded programs.' on the open issues list of Boost.Test. Does this mean that Boost.Test is not thread-safe at all? Do we misuse Boost.Test by calling things like BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL, BOOST_CHECK and BOOST_REQUIRE concurrently from different threads? Any clarification on this topic is welcome. Best regards, Peter.
