Re: [boost] About rcgc_shared_ptr
by 逸霖杨 31 Jul '20

A downgrade implementation can be like this (which is actually my former implementation during the experiments) We define an interface: struct IDIsposable { virtual void Dispose() = 0; }; And implement this interface with class A class A : public IDisposable { Public; A():disposed(false){} public: virtual void Dispose(){ if(!this->disposed){ this->_pb.Dispose();//this Dispose belongs to rcgc_shared_ptr this->_pc.Dispose(); //this Dispose belongs to rcgc_shared_ptr this->disposed = true; } } bool disposed; rcgc_shared_ptr<B> _pb; rcgc_shared_ptr<C> _pc; }; And we don’t care about ~A() and let the rcgc_shared_ptr call Dispose method of the IDisposable. This would avoid the dtors definition. However, this is not as elegant as the previous given solution in C++, having to write more code which we don’t like to do, although no difference in other languages or platforms. I’m sorry that I have to call it a day now and have to get some sleep (4:06am here) Waiting for your kindly response and suggestions. Best Regards, Yilin

Hi, I finally understand what is Top-Post. And feel very sorry for the Top-Posted emails, please pardon me. My email writer is the default one with Win10, and it replies with Chinese RE, not English, and embedding Chinese characters. Also sorry for the inconvenience when you’re reading the replies. My aim is not to replace shared_ptr or weak_ptr, I’m trying to provide another choice. Personally, I don’t like to decide when to use shared_ptr or weak_ptr and also don’t like the IUnknown way of manually memory or object allocation management, just personally. I like GC when I code in C# or Java for I don’t have to remember the trivial things beyond my design, BUT not its performance. I code this in C++ because it would be too complicated if I insert code into JavaVM or C#’s native support platform. As we have great flexibility coding whatever we want in C++ on the infrastructure level. So this is what I’m going to do with this rcgc_shared_ptr: 1. use it in my projects, and make it go through tests to see If its capable of doing things.2. Trying to make this a part of a GC based language or platform to see any performance increasing. And if possible, just as I did in emails, contribute to communities and let other coders to decide if the work Is helpful or even harmful. Please forgive me to be such a rude guy for the first time to talk so much. However, I do hope you can debug the code and hope this can be any help. Best Regards, Yilin

Still about rcgc_shared_ptr, to Andrey
by 逸霖杨 31 Jul '20

Hi Andrey, I just put Case 1 into main function and updated the GitHub project, please pull and run. I don’t have reset function for rcgc_shared_ptr, so case 2 can not work for now. Best Regards, Yilin

Dear Release Manager, We've received bug report about regression and have just fixed it in the develop branch of GIL: https://github.com/boostorg/gil/commit/8555ba08cd53c2ec5d65ea60bae9578ad586… Can I merge this fix to master? Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

[gil] Can I merge two minor fixes to header dependencies and tests for 1.7.4?
by Mateusz Loskot 26 Jul '20

26 Jul '20

Dear Release Manager, I'd like to request permission to merge these two minor fixes into GIL's master for release with 1.74 1. Fix dynamic_image extension header dependencies https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/508 This basically removes all-in-one #include <boost/gil.hpp from GIL's own headers. 2. Re-enable self containing header tests in CMake https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/509 Minor correction to an incidental disabling of headers tests in CMake. May I? Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

Two Graphs Common Spanning Trees Issue [GSoC]
by Prakash Tiwari 24 Jul '20

24 Jul '20

Hello, Community Members and developers, I'm student of Google Summer Of Code and contributing to the pgRouting <https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/>[1]. I need to use boost algorithm boost::two_graphs_common_spanning_trees. I have gone through the documentation and try to use it (with help of example.cpp) But I found that this algorithm is not returning the expected results. I have mentioned the example that I have used and explained the expected and given results <https://github.com/prakashupes/ProposalCodes/issues/1>.[2] So, please try to figure out that is it a bug implemented algorithm or It might be possible that I'm using the algorithm in the wrong way. Thanks Prakash Tiwari [1].https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/ [2]. https://github.com/prakashupes/ProposalCodes/issues/1
