[Serialization] [1.33.1-beta] Does not compile with GCC 2.95.4
by Simon Barner 10 Nov '05

10 Nov '05

Hi, I tried to build boost 1.33.1 with gcc 2.95.4, using STL-port and Spirit 1.6.2. It worked quite well, but I had to comment out the following lines: --- boost/archive/detail/oserializer.hpp.orig Thu Nov 10 00:40:32 2005 +++ boost/archive/detail/oserializer.hpp Thu Nov 10 00:43:15 2005 @@ -330,9 +330,9 @@ { static const basic_pointer_oserializer * register_type(Archive & /* ar */){ // it has? to be polymorphic - BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT( - boost::serialization::type_info_implementation<T>::type::is_polymorphic::value - ); + //BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT( + //boost::serialization::type_info_implementation<T>::type::is_polymorphic::value + //); return static_cast<const basic_pointer_oserializer *>(NULL); } }; As far as I understand this will not affect the runtime behaviour, but it will disable some compile time assertation check. Perhaps you want to fix it. Please Cc: me in your replies, I am not on the list. -- Best regards / Viele Grüße, barner(a)FreeBSD.org Simon Barner barner(a)gmx.de

XML APIs: use cases, and wishes
by Andreas Pokorny 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hi there, Stefan Seefeld recently presented his set of Dom classes. Personally I do not have any need for a DOM API. To focus the discussion on other APIs I started this new thread (and also because I could not find a good entry point in the previous disucussions). Last time I had to process XML I wrote my own wrapper on top of SAX, which forwarded higher level events to xml-unaware structures. The model served well to directly map a fixed XML-format to C++ structures (also XML writing was supported). The wrapper that forwarded all SAX events to the datastructures was generated from a single C++ expression, or several if recursion was required. I adopted a lot of spirits techinques to make it look nice. There were no intermediate data structures. In retrospective I also dislike my attempt, although it was better than working on xml document classes. It only worked with full xml documents, no partial parsing was supported. Furthermore it required a nearly direct mapping of xml elements to datastructures, different use cases which do not include a mapping of xml<->c++ werent considered. I currently do not need to fiddle with XML, but I would like to see at least these different APIs: * on-demand parsing, a parser drived by a cursor, that allows to navigate through a document, without loading it completly (I dont see a need for prior validation, here) * xml path / query like api to fastly grep for certain subtrees or elements of the xml * direct mapper of c++ structures to a certain format, so a kind of xml serialization, As you can see my view on XML is very limited, it boils down to a flexilbe form of reading XML.

threads - suggestion for producer/consumer pattern - synchronisation channel
by Oliver.Kowalke＠infineon.com 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello, I've a suggestion for an implementation of the synchronization channel between producer and consumer threads. It is adopted from several books - the only problem is how to tell the consumer threads, that all producer have finished their jobs. You can signal it from outside (deactive member function) or each producer thread has to register on the message_queue (and unregister if it has finished its job). With best regards, Oliver <<test.cpp>> <<message_queue.h>>

linker problem ob HP/UX - wrong extension
by Oliver.Kowalke＠infineon.com 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello, I compiled boost on HP/UX 11.11 (PA RISC) with gcc. I got a linker error if I tried to link against the regex library: /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Invalid loader fixup in text space needed in output file for symbol "__gxx_personality_sj0" in input file "/opt/boost/lib/libboost_regex-gcc." What I found out was: 1) 'bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" install' creates libraries with wrong extension (*.so instead of *.sl) /opt/boost/lib/libboost_regex-gcc.a /opt/boost/lib/libboost_regex-gcc.so 2) It seams that the linker chooses the static library if I declare '- boost_regex-gcc', so I get the linker error as described in my prevoíous email! 3) Building boost with 'bjam "-sSUFDLL=.sl" "-sTOOLS=gcc" install' creates /usr/local/lib/libboost_regex-gcc-1_33.a /usr/local/lib/libboost_regex-gcc-1_33.s /usr/local/lib/libboost_regex-gcc.a Shared library /usr/local/lib/libboost_regex-gcc.sl is missing! 4) Now linking with '- boost_regex-gcc-1_33' works (no linker error). Conclusion: 1) The extension for HP/UX libraries should be fixed. 2) The shared library without version in its name is missing. So long, Oliver
