Apologies in advance for the long disclaimer at the end of this message!
Note that your code does not use ostringstream, so your analysis is
wrong. I'm 99% sure that Steven's guess is correct. Try to recall
how you built boost regex library. How did you pass _SECURE_SCL 0
and _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING 0 to it?

While you are 99% sure its a boost library build problem, I am fairly
certain it is not. The libraries were built with:
.\bjam -a --with-regex --with-thread --with-date_time --with-filesystem
--with-program_options define=_SECURE_SCL=0
define=_HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING=0 define=_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
define=_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE define=_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE
define=_SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE -d+2 > bjamout.txt
Example build output is:
file
bin.v2\libs\regex\build\msvc-9.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\c_regex_traits.obj.rsp
"libs\regex\src\..\src\c_regex_traits.cpp"

You are right, though, the posted code does not use ostringstream - sorry
for the confusion. ostringstream was used in one of the various
distillations of code in trying to locate this error. Code similar to this
is used in many places, all successfully, apart from two. One used
ostringstream.
For example, replace the string concatentation:
std::string x = "x" + boost::lexical_caststd::string(i);
with:
std::ostringstream oss;
oss << "x" << i;
std::string x = oss.str();
and the bug remains. Replace it with:
std::string x = "x";
x += (std::string)boost::lexical_caststd::string(i);
and it works perfectly. Also, using boost::format instead of ostringstream
also works fine. ostringstream was also responsible for another bug of a
similar nature - all occurring in the basic_string destructor - code
below.
I think, therefore, that the boost libraries are probably not the problem
(although in these cases both regex and lexical_cast are used); my
suggestion is that the string concatentation and ostringstream use some
common code wherein lies the possible bug.
For completeness, code was built using debug multi-threaded dll libraries:
/MDd. Under VC++ 2005 all is fine; under 2008 the problem occurs. Also,
code is fine in release mode. Here is another code distillation showing a
similar problem:
#define _SECURE_SCL 0
#define _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING 0
#include
#include
#include
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
struct Version
{
Version();
~Version();
static const Version& currentVersion();
private:
static const Version Version::currentVersion_;
std::string version_;
int major_;
int minor_;
};
namespace
{
std::string version4d()
{
int zero = 0;
int one = 1;
//boost::format fmt("%1%.%2%");
//fmt % one % zero;
//return fmt.str();
std::ostringstream oss;
oss << one << "." << zero;
return oss.str();
}
const boost::regex reg("^([0-9]+)\\.([0-9]+)$");
int group(const std::string& ver, int i)
{
boost::match_resultsstd::string::const_iterator match;
bool found = boost::regex_search(ver, match, reg);
return found ? boost::lexical_cast<int>(match.str(i + 1))
: 0;
}
int major(const std::string& ver)
{
return group(ver, 0);
}
int minor(const std::string& ver)
{
return group(ver, 1);
}
}
const Version Version::currentVersion_;
Version::Version():
version_(version4d()),
major_(major(version_)),
minor_(minor(version_))
{
}
Version::~Version()
{
}
const Version& Version::currentVersion()
{
return currentVersion_;
}
int main()
{
std::cout << "Enter to exit\n";
std::cin.get();
}
In this case, the error occurs in the destructor of the static member,
currentVersion_. If you build and run these examples, you should be able
to reproduce the bug. If, on the other hand, I have made some foolish
mistake, I would be pleased to be enlightened.
