I'm happy with the direction boost is going in (if that counts for anything). I look to boost to solve data structure related problems for me where C++ lacks, less so for other things that a full library like POCO can provide. Sohail

CVS notification e-mails

22 Jul '06

Hi, I currently follow CVS activity through gmane.comp.lib.boost.cvs. Unfortunately for two days now it is completely stopped, and last message I can see there is: RCS file: boost/libs/date_time/xmldoc/exclusive_date_time.xml,v (...) diff -u -d -r1.1 -r1.2 --- exclusive_date_time.xml 8 May 2005 18:55:39 -0000 1.1 +++ exclusive_date_time.xml 20 Jul 2006 15:55:16 -0000 1.2 I wonder if the problem concerns gmane or the mailing list itself (or my news server, or...?). Any clue? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ]

My colleague just showed me a very concise example of how he created a service that can be registered with Windows. The same code works for Unix as well.

[BGL] Is it a doc error?
by Wang Weiwei 22 Jul '06

22 Jul '06

Hello, In the BGL doc @ http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/graph_coloring.html There's a function with name 'smallest_last_ordering', in which there's a line of code: degree_buckets.push(*v); but I cannot find where is 'degree_buckets' declared. What's wrong? By the way, is there any sample code that is using this function? Thanks Max

ANN: POCO - C++ Portable Components
by Guenter Obiltschnig 21 Jul '06

21 Jul '06

Hello all, David told me that the following announcement might be of interest in the Boost community, so here it goes ;-) I am happy to announce that POCO (the C++ Portable Components) is now under the Boost license, which makes it free for both open source and commercial use. Also, the new POCO Community Website is now online at http:// poco.appinf.com This is the place to meet the POCO developers and to discuss all things POCO. Contributors are welcome! About POCO: POCO, the C++ Portable Components, is a collection of open source class libraries that simplify and accelerate the development of network-centric, portable applications in C++. The libraries integrate perfectly with the C++ Standard Library and fill many of the functional gaps left open by it. Their modular and efficient design and implementation makes the C++ Portable Components extremely well suited for embedded development, an area where the C++ programming language is becoming increasingly popular, due to its suitability for both low-level (device I/O, interrupt handlers, etc.) and high-level object-oriented development. For more information, please visit http://poco.appinf.com Hope to meet you there, Günter -- Günter Obiltschnig Applied Informatics guenter.obiltschnig(a)appinf.com http://www.appinf.com P: +43 4253 32596 M: +43 676 5166737 F: +43 4253 32096 -------------------------------------------------------- The C++ Portable Components: http://poco.appinf.com
