I can think of a couple of missing features. - An option to handle const and non-const arguments up to N, and only [non-]const arguments from N to M. - Automatically detect if the compiler supports variadic templates and rvalue references and use those instead.

pa-risc HP-UX compatibility.
by Jurko Gospodnetić 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

Hi. HP-UX system header '/usr/include/machine/reg.h' found on pa-risc HP-UX 11.11 defines R1, R2, R3, etc. macros which conflict with some boost headers. Conflicting headers found in Boost 1.34.1. are 'boost/iterator/iterator_facade.hpp' (several template parameter names) and 'boost/test/test_tools.hpp' (one local variable name). We have not checked the current trunk/1.35 release branches. Could these and any other conflicting files be updated to not use these identifier names? Such changes should be trivial renames. Also, most likely some Boost coding convention documentation should be updated to reference this. We ran into this problem when looking into porting the Boost ASIO library to HP-UX and working around this problem will be necessary in order to get this port working. Note though that newer HP-UX releases do not have this problem (tested on HP-UX ai64 11.23) Hope this helps. Best regards, Jurko Gospodnetić

boost::posix_time::time_duration greater than 24 hours
by Mark Van Dijk 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

The following code snippet produces an ASSERT on my machine running WinXP (sp2) with VS8 (sp1) with boost v1.34.1: boost::posix_time::time_duration t(24, 0, 0); std::cout << t << std::end; The assertion occurs because there is a check in the underlying CRT that verifies the hours portion is between 0 and 23 inclusive. Is this something that might be fixed in boost 1.35?

Serialization and polymorphic archives
by Chris Hamilton 11 Dec '07

11 Dec '07

Hello all, I've been using the serialization library for a while now. Because of the run-time module loading aspect of our project, serialization has to be available through virtual functions and we do this by wrapping calls to boost serialization using poylmorphic archive types. In general, this has worked well. We'd like to start using the 1.35 branch because we want access to Boost.mpi as well. Rebuilding the code against 1.35 works fine and doesn't require any changes. However, as soon as we try running any code, we get the following missing symbol problem (this is happening when run-time loading a library that links against boost_serialization): undefined symbol: _ZN5boost7archive6detail27archive_pointer_iserializerINS0_27polymorphic_binary_iarchiveEEC2ERKNS_13serialization18extended_type_infoE Any ideas on what could be going on here? I'm running revision 41959 built with GCC 3.4. Regards, Chris Hamilton

Boost.HTTP ?
by Michael Dickey 11 Dec '07

11 Dec '07

Greetings, I've been working over the past 7+ months on a little library that uses Boost and ASIO to implement HTTP functionality. Originally I called this "libpion," then renamed it to the "Pion Network Library." I'm using it as piece of a larger open source project for complex event processing, which has taken on the overall "Pion" brand (hence the change). http://pion.atomiclabs.com/pion/net The library includes pretty comprehensive support for HTTP versions 1.0 and 1.1, including persistent connections, pipelining, chunked encodings, etc. It supports client-side operations as well as an extensive server-side implementation, and can use either blocking or asynchronous sockets (through use of the Boost.ASIO library). The original purpose was to create a Boost/C++ library for building lightweight HTTP interfaces for applications. Although it can certainly be used to serve files, It is not meant to replace or compete with any full-featured web server (like Apache or lighttpd). One of its main features/uses is to bind HTTP resources to code. The library is now fairly stable and feature-complete, and I have a few other developers helping out with it. I've been thinking more lately about preparing this to submit for formal review as a Boost library. However, there are a few obstacles that I know of: 1) This is my first Boost library, and I made the mistake of using CamelCase and other non-Boost styles starting it out. So, some re- naming and cleanup work would obviously be required. I don't imagine this would take too much time, though. 2) Some of the functionality overlaps with other libraries that have not yet been included or accepted into Boost (most notably, I think Boost.Extension would overlap with Pion's handling of web services: dynamic plug-ins bound to resources). I'd be happy (and actually prefer) to swap out this code with Boost.Extension, but I do not believe it has been reviewed or accepted yet either. I could also prepare a version with the plug-in functionality removed, but since it's being used in other projects, this would create a fork requiring extra maintenance energy, etc. 3) I know that Dean Michael Berris has formed a group of developers working on a more comprehensive network protocol library for Boost called cpp-netlib. HTTP is one of the protocols they are working on. I've offered and would still be quite happy to combine efforts somehow, but that project still seems to have a long way to go, and a few people have mentioned that it may be preferable to have an independent library focused on HTTP. So.. I decided to throw all this out there and see what people think. Should Boost have its own HTTP library, or should it be part of an more comprehensive network protocol library? Would it be better have something available sooner in Boost that works and is reliable, and try to resolve the overlap over time as cpp-netlib matures? Or, would it be better to wait and try to merge my library (or at least it's functionality) into cpp-netlib? Thanks, -Mike

Clean disconnect with asio socket library
by Bert Passek 11 Dec '07

11 Dec '07

Hello, i'm using boost 1.34 with the asio c++ library extension for socket communication. At the moment i have following problem. - i open a client class with usage of io service and a connection manager according to the examples TcpClient* client = new TcpClient(ioServiceClient, string(regServer->host), Utilities::intToString(regServer->port), connectionManager, *this); - after connected to a server i send some messages via asio::async_write(socket_, buffer, boost::bind(&TcpConnection::handle_write, shared_from_this(), asio::placeholders::error)); - the connection itself listen to incoming messages via asio::async_read(socket_, asio::buffer(inbound_header_), boost::bind(&TcpConnection::handle_read_header, shared_from_this(), asio::placeholders::error)); So what i have to do is - open connection - send some messages - disconnect The disconnect is done ioServiceClient.post(boost::bind(&ConnectionManager::stop_all, &connectionManager)); So what is my problem: I need to close the connection after sending the last message. At a certain message length the disconnect happens before the message was send completely. That's why i thought putting the disconnect via post to the io service will handle this. But this is not the case. How can i make a clean disconnect when all outstanding messages were send completely?? Thanks for your answers.
