[boost-users][boost graph] edge_descriptor problem when copy from original graph
by Emerson Xu 26 Apr '16

26 Apr '16

Hi all, I have a boost graph copy problem that has been nagging me for a long time. My question is, is there anyway that I can construct a graph once, and reuse it multiple times, each time I may mutate the graph a bit. I have a class, which creates a boost graph with bundled vertex and edge properties (my own properties, vertices are routers in a network, while edges are logical links between routers). When creating the graph, some helper unordered maps are also created, like mapping from an edge_descriptor to a logical link name, from a router name to a vertex_descriptor, etc. Now there are multiple clients calling some method in the class. Current strategy is to construct a new boost graph instance for every client, and run the service on each graph instance. Now I want to improve the performance by avoiding constructing the graph for every client ( >100 clients are calling it simultaneously). So I am thinking that we can initialize only one base graph, and make it a copy for every client. Then the problem comes, since in the method the client needs use those helper unordered maps, but the data inside the maps are from that original base graph. Even if I use a copy constructor(deep copy) for each graph copy, some graph data is still inconsistent, like the edge_descriptor, for example, I can't use the hashmap with edge_descriptor as key, because this edge_descriptor only points to the memory address of base graph. Best, Emerson

error when copying blocks into a dynamic_bitset
by Diab Jerius 26 Apr '16

26 Apr '16

Hi, I'm trying to initialize a dynamic_bitset<unsigned char> from a vector of blocks. Here's the code: #include <cstdlib> #include <vector> #include <boost/dynamic_bitset.hpp> typedef boost::dynamic_bitset<unsigned char> BitSet; typedef std::vector<BitSet::block_type> Block; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { int nbits = atoi( argv[1] ); BitSet bits( nbits ); Block buffer; buffer.resize( bits.num_blocks(), 0xff ); boost::from_block_range(buffer.begin(),buffer.end(), bits ); return 0; } If the bitset size isn't a multiple of sizeof(unsigned char) (here 8) , ~dynamic_bitset() throws an exception. For example: % ./a.out 1 a.out: boost-1.60.0/include/boost/dynamic_bitset/dynamic_bitset.hpp:633: boost::dynamic_bitset<Block, Allocator>::~dynamic_bitset() [with Block = unsigned char; Allocator = std::allocator<unsigned char>]: Assertion `m_check_invariants()' failed. Aborted % ./a.out 8 % ./a.out 15 a.out: boost-1.60.0/boost/dynamic_bitset/dynamic_bitset.hpp:633: boost::dynamic_bitset<Block, Allocator>::~dynamic_bitset() [with Block = unsigned char; Allocator = std::allocator<unsigned char>]: Assertion `m_check_invariants()' failed. Aborted % ./a.out 16 % I see this with 1.59 & 1.60 using either g++ 4.7.2 or Apple LLVM version 6.0 (clang-600.0.57) (based on LLVM 3.5svn) I believe that I'm following the rules for the buffer type and size. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks! Diab

Compiler errors using boost/program_options with Boost v 1.53 and v 1.59
by Christine Peters 26 Apr '16

26 Apr '16

Dear all, I had to reinstall my boost version as the cluster environment I'm working on has switched from Scientific Linux 6 to CentOS 7. When I'm now compiling my code including the header "#include <boost/program_options>", I will receive the following error message: In file included from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/aux_/arithmetic_op.hpp:34:0, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/times.hpp:19, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/multiplies.hpp:17, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/numeric/conversion/detail/is_subranged.hpp:17, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/numeric/conversion/detail/conversion_traits.hpp:21, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/numeric/conversion/conversion_traits.hpp:13, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/numeric/conversion/converter.hpp:13, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/numeric/conversion/cast.hpp:33, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/lexical_cast/detail/converter_numeric.hpp:37, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/lexical_cast/try_lexical_convert.hpp:34, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/lexical_cast.hpp:32, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/program_options/value_semantic.hpp:14, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/program_options/options_description.hpp:13, from /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/program_options.hpp:15, from /home/cp652127/EclipseWorkspace/AMD-Geant4.10/amd/externals/g4sipm/sample/include/ParticleSourceMessenger.hh:24, from /home/cp652127/EclipseWorkspace/AMD-Geant4.10/amd/externals/g4sipm/sample/include/AsciiPersistencyHandler.hh:20, from /home/cp652127/EclipseWorkspace/AMD-Geant4.10/amd/externals/g4sipm/sample/include/RunAction.hh:16, from /home/cp652127/EclipseWorkspace/AMD-Geant4.10/amd/externals/g4sipm/sample/src/RunAction.cc:9: /home/phys3aauger/tine/ApeInstalled/External/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/aux_/include_preprocessed.hpp:37:90: fatal error: boost/mpl/aux_/preprocessed/gcc/ostimes.hpp: No such file or directory # include BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE(boost/mpl/aux_/preprocessed/AUX778076_PREPROCESSED_HEADER) ^ compilation terminated. This fatal error occurs with my own boost installation (version 1.59.0) but also with the system default boost (version 1.53.0). It worked properly on Scientific Linux 6. Now, I'm using gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4), CPU codename Intel Nehalem EX, LINUX, CENTOS 7.2 environment. I would be very glad if someone could help me. It seems that somehow the AUX778076 parameter defined in "boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/times.hpp" is converted to ostimes during the compilation: I've changed, just for testing reasons!, in file "/boost/1_59_0/include/boost/mpl/times.hpp" the line "#define AUX778076_OP_NAME times" to "#define AUX778076_OP_NAME timestest" and then boost is searching for the correct header "timestest.hpp" but in the case of "#define AUX778076_OP_NAME times" it is searching for "ostimes.hpp" instead of "times.hpp". Thanks in advance for your help! Cheers, Christine

Typo in BGL Subgraph
by Eisuke Kawashima 23 Apr '16

23 Apr '16

Dear all, I submitted the following to boost-docs but have received no response, so also submitting to boost-users. The last part of Boost Graph Library: Subgraph <http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/graph/doc/subgraph.html> (since Boost 1.40) > > struct my_vertex { ... }; > typedef property<vertex_index_t, std::size_t, vertex_prop> vertex_prop; > struct my_edge { ... }; > typedef property<edge_index_t, std::size_t, vertex_prop> edge_prop; should be > > struct my_vertex { ... }; > typedef property<vertex_index_t, std::size_t, my_vertex> vertex_prop; > struct my_edge { ... }; > typedef property<edge_index_t, std::size_t, my_edge> edge_prop; Additionally I want you to note how to modify GraphProperties of boost::subgraph (or whether it is not implemented).

[interprocess] posix_recursive_mutex constructor never called, fails to init mutex
by Adrian Cheater 23 Apr '16

23 Apr '16

This was submitted as a bug (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/12150) but I don't know that this is actually a boost bug, possibly a OSX or clang issue, or maybe I'm just doing something silly, so I'm hoping someone here can shed some light on the issue. I'm trying to use boost's shared memory system to get data from another application, but while it works fine on Ubuntu 15.10 with boost 1.58 and 1.60 on gcc, clang-3.6 and clang-3.7, it throws an exception when it attempts to acquire the mutex lock on OSX because the mutex has not been initialized. Placing a breakpoint in the constructor for the recursive_lock never gets hit, and I'm not sure why. Hopefully someone with more OSX experience can help me sort this out. Thanks very much for your time.

Compiler does not give error for missing serialize function
by Elizabeta 22 Apr '16

22 Apr '16

Hi I have the following code : class MyClass { private: friend class boost::serialization::access; template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) {} }; class MyClass2 : public MyClass {}; MyClass2* ss = new MyClass2; std::ofstream ofs("C:\\test.xml"); boost::archive::xml_oarchive oa(ofs); oa & boost::serialization::make_nvp("test",ss); I am serializing trough the derived class pointer. The derived class doesnot have serialize function. The Base have. And I was expecting compiler to give me error that MyClass2 doesnot have serialize function. But this code compiles without errors. I am using vs2010. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Compiler-does-not-give-error-for-missing… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[gsoc16] Summer of Code 2016 shall proceed after all
by Niall Douglas 22 Apr '16

22 Apr '16

Dear Boost, We are very glad to announce that non-Google funding has been found to continue the Summer of Code for the following veteran student projects in Summer 2016: A. Boost Document, mentored by Antony Polukhin. Veteran student: Anurag Ghosh https://anuragxel.github.io/boost-document/ B. Boost.Compute, mentored by Kyle Lutz. Veteran student: Jakub Szuppe https://boostorg.github.io/compute/ C. Boost.Http, mentored by Bjorn Reese. Veteran student: Vinícius dos Santos Oliveira https://boostgsoc14.github.io/boost.http/ All three of these projects shall see a Summer of Code as if it were Google Summer of Code following the same timeline, mentor and student stipends, and progress acceptance criteria. Our thanks to the students and mentors for being so patient during the organisation of this funding. This all happened very quickly and much faster than Boost org processes normally happen - it would not have been possible without the efforts of Jon Kalb and Bryce Adelstein Lelbach, the latter of whom wrote up a great funding request worth reading at https://goo.gl/7v3VMK. Thanks are also due to the Boost Steering Committee for moving so quickly to vote on this, and to Boris Schäling for finding sponsorship for this effort. And finally congratulations to the veteran students! Niall and Bryce --- Boost C++ Libraries Google Summer of Code 2016 admin https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/SoC2016

measuring distance between a point and a segment
by Juliette Pera 22 Apr '16

22 Apr '16

Dear all, I am currently trying to use the boost library in order to measure the shortest distance between a point and a list of segments. I am declaring a segment to which I append the two points of my segment and the I calculate the distance from my point P to the segment. xsegment_t segment; geom::append(segment,geom::make_point(A[0],A[1])); geom::append(segment,geom::make_point(B[0],B[1])); double distance2 = geom::distance(segment,geom::make_point(P[0],P[1])); The issue is that I measure every time the same distance even if the segment is different. Does anyone knows from where that issue can come from? Thank you in advance, Juliette Pera

[units] division with absolute temperature
by João Leal 19 Apr '16

Hello, I'm trying to use absolute temperature in some expressions. Unfortunately I'm having some issues with the compilation. For instance, if I divide an absolute temperature by itself I would expect to get 1 dimensionless, however that will cause a compilation error. #include <iostream> #include <boost/units/absolute.hpp> #include <boost/units/io.hpp> #include <boost/units/quantity.hpp> #include <boost/units/systems/si.hpp> #include <boost/units/systems/si/io.hpp> int main(int argc, char** argv) { using namespace boost::units; quantity<si::temperature> rT(273.15 * si::kelvin); // relative temperature quantity<si::dimensionless> v; v = rT / rT; std::cout << v << std::endl; // 1 dimensionless quantity<absolute<si::temperature> > aT(273.15 * absolute<si::temperature>()); // absolute temperature //v = aT / aT; // uncommenting this line will cause compilation errors //std::cout << v << std::endl; // 1 dimensionless return 0; } If I uncomment the line with v = aT / aT, in ubuntu 15.10 with boost 1.58 and gcc 5.2.1, I get the error: (...) /usr/include/boost/units/operators.hpp:81:5: error: no match for ‘operator/’ (operand types are ‘boost::units::absolute<boost::units::unit<boost::units::list<boost::units::dim<boost::units::temperature_base_dimension, boost::units::static_rational<1l> >, boost::units::dimensionless_type>, boost::units::homogeneous_system<boost::units::list<boost::units::si::meter_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::scaled_base_unit<boost::units::cgs::gram_base_unit, boost::units::scale<10l, boost::units::static_rational<3l> > >, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::second_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::ampere_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::kelvin_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::mole_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::candela_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::angle::radian_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::angle::steradian_base_unit, boost::units::dimensionless_type> > > > > > > > > > > >’ and ‘boost::units::absolute<boost::units::unit<boost::units::list<boost::units::dim<boost::units::temperature_base_dimension, boost::units::static_rational<1l> >, boost::units::dimensionless_type>, boost::units::homogeneous_system<boost::units::list<boost::units::si::meter_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::scaled_base_unit<boost::units::cgs::gram_base_unit, boost::units::scale<10l, boost::units::static_rational<3l> > >, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::second_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::ampere_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::kelvin_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::mole_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::si::candela_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::angle::radian_base_unit, boost::units::list<boost::units::angle::steradian_base_unit, boost::units::dimensionless_type> > > > > > > > > > > >’) BOOST_TYPEOF_NESTED_TYPEDEF_TPL(nested, (typeof_::make<X>()/typeof_::make<Y>())) (...)

Boost statechart, how can i transit to previous state using deep_history or shallow history
by juls 16 Apr '16

16 Apr '16

I have a difficulty in understanding the boost statechart history functionality. I have the following state machine. struct InButtonPressed : sc::event<InButtonPressed> {}; struct OutButtonPressed : sc::event<OutButtonPressed> {}; struct InButtonPressed : sc::event<InButtonPressed> {}; struct InputProceed: sc::event<InputProceed> {}; struct OutputProceed: sc::event<OutputProceed> {}; struct CancelEvent: sc::event<CancelEvent> {}; struct Proceed: sc::event<Proceed> {}; struct Revert: sc::event<InputProceed> {}; struct RH_StateMachine : bsc::state_machine< RH_StateMachine, Idle > {}; struct Idle : bsc::state< Idle, RH_StateMachine> { Idle(my_context ctx) : my_base(ctx){ std::cout << "[+] Idle" << std::endl; } ~Idle(){std::cout << "[-] leaving Idle state... \n";} typedef boost::mpl::list< bsc::transition< InButtonPressed, Input>, bsc::transition< OutButtonPressed, Output> >reactions; }; struct Input : bsc::state< Input, RH_StateMachine> { Input(my_context ctx) : my_base(ctx){ std::cout << "[+] Input" << std::endl; } ~Input(){std::cout << "[-] leaving Input state... \n";} typedef boost::bsc::transition< CancelEvent, Cancel> >reactions; }; struct Output : bsc::state< Output, RH_StateMachine> { Output(my_context ctx) : my_base(ctx){ std::cout << "[+] Output" << std::endl; } ~Output(){std::cout << "[-] leaving Output state... \n";} typedef boost::bsc::transition< CancelEvent, Cancel> >reactions; }; struct Cancel::bsc::state<Cancel, RH_StateMAchine>{ Cancel(my_context ctx) : my_base(ctx){ std::cout << "[+] Cancel" << std::endl; } ~Cancel(){std::cout << "[-] leaving Cancel state... \n";} typedef boost::mpl::list< bsc::transition< Proceed, CanceledConfirmed>, bsc::transition< Revert, *"PREVIOUS_STATE"*> >reactions; }; How do i implement transitioning to previous state using deep_history or shallow history, when i can transit to a state from many different states? In the above state machine i want to transit from Cancel state to the previous state when the revert event is triggered, but i have already transited in Cancel state from either Input or Output state...
