Paul, could you send me a private mail, I don't reach to send you any private mail. I'm always getting Hallovicente.botet(a)wanadoo.fr, Sie erhalten diese E-Mail, weil die Gruppe, die Sie kontaktieren möchten (boost-devel-archive), möglicherweise nicht vorhanden ist bzw. Sie nicht die erforderlichen Berechtigungen haben, um der Gruppe Nachrichten zu posten. Nachstehend einige Detailinformationen zu den möglichen Gründen, warum Sie keine Nachricht posten konnten: ... :( Vicente

Hi, we have started to create some issues in https://github.com/pfultz2/Fit/issues, and sometimes there are some interesting discussion. I will try to add post on the MLs the issues that are conflicting so that other are aware of the discussion. Anyway, if you are curious you can always take a look at and participate also. If you want to receive the updates I believe that you just need to click on watch (top right). Best, Vicente

[asio] Feature request: console IO
by Tatsuyuki Ishi 06 Mar '16

06 Mar '16

Hello everyone, here is a greeting for joining the list. I want to request console support in asio. Some reasons: 1. non-block stdin is useful for some applications. 2. Linux can do non-block IO on ttys. Implementation concept: 1. Linux: if using epoll, first check if target is a regular file. If not, fall back to threaded non-blocking IO. select(), poll() can be use on any valid fds. 2. Windows: this garbage doesn't support overlapped console IO. Create a separate thread for std{in,out,err}, then communicate with the thread. 3. Other *nix: I don't know. It could already be used through POSIX stream descriptor, but it is too limited and platform specific. A library can cover these gaps is great. I hope you like this idea.

[Block Pointer][Container] Works - Take 2
by Phil Bouchard 06 Mar '16

06 Mar '16

Sorry for all the confusion but I was very confused myself. Now the block_ptr<> works in all cases with Linux x86: - I removed the usage of an allocator. Now there is no need for any allocator anymore. - I removed the usage of the strange pointer proxy optimization. Now the memory manager might take more memory but the class is clean and correctly abstracted. - I removed the usage of weak references. This is just too error-prone. But I need to tell whether an address is on the stack or on the heap. There is no portable way to do this except from marking the heap boundaries by overloading an allocator or write assembly code for each architecture / OS. I prefer the latter and I think this should eventually be part of the standards. Once again the working examples are here: https://github.com/philippeb8/block_ptr/blob/master/example/benchmark.cpp https://github.com/philippeb8/block_ptr/blob/master/example/block_ptr_test1… https://github.com/philippeb8/block_ptr/blob/master/example/block_ptr_test2… Regards, -Phil

Ok now everything works!! https://github.com/philippeb8/block_ptr/blob/master/example/block_ptr_test2… So now block_ptr<> is Boost.Container compliant! I still need to fix an issue but it's moving forward! Thanks, -Phil

[Fit] pipable order of the arguments
by Vicente J. Botet Escriba 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

Hi, I would like to know what other think about the order of the pipe (See this issue https://github.com/pfultz2/Fit/issues/5). What would be the expected meaning of auto r1 =1 | pipable(f)(2); f(1,2) or f(2,1)? What would be the expected meaning of auto f2 = partial(f)(2); auto r1 =1 | pipable(f2); f(1,2) or f(2,1)? As the operator| has left-to-right associativity, we can not do auto x = 1 | 2 | pipable(f); We would need a way to pack the parameters auto x = forward_as_tuple(1, 2) | pipable(f); but this wouldn't compile as f has two parameters. or use parenthesis auto x = 1 | (2 | pipable(f)); and the result will be f(2, 1). Any ideas? Best, Vicente Vicente

[fusion] getting type of attribute_proxy for BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_ADT
by Jens Weller 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

Hello, Code below, first what I'm trying to do is... assign a value to a adapted struct (BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_ADT), which works fine if both are of the same type or convertible: template<int I, class Seq, class V> typename std::enable_if< std::is_convertible< typename fusion::result_of::at_c<Seq, I>::type, V>::value ,void>::type assign(Seq& s, V& v) { fusion::get<I>(s) = v; } Some of my input is string, and the struct member is bool, unsigned int etc. In this case I'd need to know the type to convert from string. boost::fusion::get returns the attribute_proxy for the adapted struct, so does at_c<>::type. template<int I, class Seq, class V> typename std::enable_if< !std::is_convertible< typename fusion::result_of::at_c<Seq, I>::type, V>::value /*&& !std::is_same<typename std::decay<V>::type,std::string>::value*/ ,void>::type assign(Seq& s, V& v) { std::stringstream ss; ss << v; ss >> fusion::get<I>(s); } Obviously this does not compile. Is there any trick to get to the type of the proxy? One idea I have is decltype(fusion::get<I>(s).get()), but not sure if I can get this to work in an enable_if... thanks, Jens Weller
