boost::get<i>
by Lars Schouw 21 May '08

21 May '08

I tried to use boost::tuple for the first time, and soon ran into a problem. I can't get values using boost::get<i> where i is an int. samplec code typedef boost::tuple<double,double,double> tuple; void foo() { std::vector<tuple> corr = boost::assign::tuple_list_of ( 1.0, 0.1, -0.1 ) ( 0.1, 1.0, 0.4 ) ( -0.1, 0.4, 1.0 ); for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) { double val = boost::get<i>( corr[j] ); } } Using Visual Studio 2005 this comes give me a compiler error: error C2971: 'boost::tuples::get' : template parameter 'N' : 'i' : a local variable cannot be used as a non-type argument then when I move the int i declaration outside of the function foo. I get a new error: error C2975: 'N' : invalid template argument for 'boost::tuples::get', expected compile-time constant expression What do I need to do to access values in a tuple with an index i?

1.35.0 release tag?
by David Abrahams 21 May '08

21 May '08

Hi, Did the 1.35.0 release ever get tagged as such? I think that's a rather important step in the release process, but I can't find an appropriate tag. Did I miss it? Thanks, -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com

regression results for the release?
by David Abrahams 21 May '08

21 May '08

http://www.boost.org/development/testing.html quoth: Will all Boost libraries work with your compiler? Unfortunately, the answer is "it depends". See the regression testing results to see exactly what works and what doesn't. But when I "see the regression testing results," all I see are results for the trunk and the release branch. If I'm an ordinary user, I'm using the 1.35.0 _release_. Do those libraries work with my compiler? -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com

[thread] lock factory functions?
by Frank Mori Hess 20 May '08

20 May '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm curious if lock factory functions have been considered? Combined with the C++0x "auto" keyword (or some other kind of type erasure if you wanted to emulate), it seems like they could allow you to avoid having to specify the template type of locks explicitly. Like: template<typename M> boost::unique_lock<M> make_unique_lock(M &mutex); boost::mutex m; auto lock = make_unique_lock(m); -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIMy3V5vihyNWuA4URAgznAJ9ofZV/KfI0bit9QS6ek5DigfzvjgCgwoyE Y7GuiYLbTDRr+/AdM5JQMQk= =BaOW -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

proposal: interval containers
by Joachim Faulhaber 20 May '08

20 May '08

Dear boost developers, I would like to contribute some library code that covers the field of interval containers, specifically interval_set and interval_map. My design of interval sets is based on the fact that an interval<T> is a set<T>, which implies that a set<T> t can be represented as a set<interval<T>> s, where t is the union over all intervals contained in s. The implementation of a set<T> as a set<interval<T>> can be beneficial whenever in a given problem domain the elements of sets appear in contiguous chunks: intervals. This is obviously the case in many problem domains, namely in fields that deal with problems related to date and time. The benefits of interval sets and maps are 1. The implementation of sets/maps via interval_set/map is very space and also time efficient. 2. All problems concerning overlaps of intervals and their handling can be encapsulated in the implementation and thus ... 3. A higher abstraction level dealing with interval and specifically time interval related problems can be obtained. I wrote a library that provides generic classes for interval_sets and interval_maps and a few more things called "Interval Template Library (itl)". I'd like to give a very brief description of the library in this post. For more detailed information and the current source code you might want to download the itl from http://sourceforge.net/projects/itl. The code contained in the library was originally developed at Cortex Software GmbH Berlin (Clinic Information Systems), where interval containers already proved to be very useful for quite some years in almost all of our applications. In 2006 Cortex Software GmbH allowed the code to be released as open source and I provided a preliminary version at sourceforge. Meanwhile I have refactored the code to enhance it's fitness for generic designs, portable usage and a possible integration in the boost libraries. Since I have not (yet;) found the functionality of the 'itl' in the boost libraries nor a discussion about the rejection of such topics in the boost archives I would like to offer parts of the library here. interval_set: itl::interval_set implements all functionality of std::set as a set of intervals and in addition +=, -= and *= for set union, difference and intersection. On insertion of neighbouring or overlapping intervals inserted intervals are joined. split_interval_set: split_interval_set works like interval_set but borders of the inserted intervals are preserved, so it can be used as time grid. Using itl::split_interval_set you can partition other interval containers using the *= operator to perform intersections. split_interval_map: A split_interval_map implements a map as a map of intervals and associated values. For dealing with the insertion of overlapping intervals the principle of "aggregation on overlap" has proved to be very useful: It is shown by example: typedef set<string> guests; split_interval_map<time, guests> party; guests mary; mary.insert("Mary"); guests harry; harry.insert("Harry"); party.insert(make_pair(rightopen_interval(20:00, 22:00), mary)); party.insert(make_pair(rightopen_interval(21:00, 23:00), harry)); // party now contains [20:00, 21:00)->{"Mary"} [21:00, 22:00)->{"Harry","Mary"} //guest sets aggregated on overlap [22:00, 23:00)->{"Harry"} As can be seen from the example a split_interval_map has both a decompositional behavior (on the time dimension) as well as a accumulative one (on the associated values). Quality, validation, portability: The library code of the itl has been validated with a law based test automaton (LaBatea;) which is included in the current release. It includes a testcase generator and law tester that checks laws like e.g. commutativity<interval_set<double>, +=>: the commutativity of interval_set<double> w.r.t. the operation +=. The code has been compiled and tested with three compilers (gcc 3.4.4, conceptgcc-boostcon, msvc 8.0 sp1) and with three implementations of the stl (linux/gnu, stlport, msvc8) under suse linux 10.1. and ms-windows xp. I'd be happy if you found interval conainers as presented in this post an interesting contribution to look at. If so, I am looking forward to an inspiring discussion. Best regards Joachim Faulhaber

constrained_value: 1 more question
by Neal Becker 20 May '08

20 May '08

Is it really intentional that the error handling of constrained & operator = (const value_type & v) uses BOOST_ASSERT(_check_value()); But in void _initialize() it uses throw_exception<>()(_value, _value, _constraint());

constrained_value redundant check?
by Neal Becker 20 May '08

20 May '08

constrained & operator = (const value_type & v) { if(constraint()(v)) _value = v; else error_handler()(_value, v, _constraint()); BOOST_ASSERT(_check_value()); << Isn't this redundant? return *this; } Maybe this should be: constrained & operator = (const value_type & v) { if(constraint()(v)) _value = v; else { error_handler()(_value, v, _constraint()); BOOST_ASSERT(_check_value()); } return *this; }

setting rpath in boost libraries
by brook＠biology.nmsu.edu 20 May '08

20 May '08

I am trying to compile (using bjam) boost 1.35.0 on a Unix box with gcc and have discovered that the wave library depends on some others but the build process doesn't set the rpath in the wave shared library. Is there some magic that can be used to cause bjam to have the linker set the rpath within the library? Thanks for your hlep. Cheers, Brook
