Hi Boost, Vissarion, Adam, Niall, David Sorry for disturbing you at this time, I experienced a very bad thing that Satyam Pandey, a student who sent proposal yesterday copied too many sections of my proposal. I marked the sections red in the given PDF.* I think the same pattern of GSoC proposal is common, and it does not matter, but his proposal has too many same description as me. * And I received two emails from google docs. I will transmit these two emails in the following emailsThe meaning of one email is Satyam Pandey do a replace:replace “Dev Environment Visual Studio for C# development Eclipse for JAVA development Code Blocks, Sublime T…” to“`+” The meaning of another email is Satyam Pandey reject the comment of "Proposal" from his own, replace “Dev Environment Visual Studio for C# development Eclipse for JAVA development Code Blocks, Sublime T…” to“`+” I sent an email to him, but he did not think he did the copy work. But the actually thing is* he forked the whole proposal and then change some words to fix his condition.* 2017-04-03 7:42 GMT+08:00 Satyam Pandey <satyampandey0009(a)gmail.com>: > Hello Ruyong, > I just wanted to explain my part here.

Hello Ruyong, I just wanted to explain my part here. I did not copy as per what I understand.I have tried answering your queries.I hope you will read it calmly and would try to understand. 1. As far as I could guess we share similar background of competitive programming and have no experience in contributing to any large orgs . So I used your proposal as reference for writing my proposal. 2. Our Programming interest are same cause they are, I will end it here. This cannot be called a copy-case because thats-what I feel are the things that I like. How can you question that? Every guy that loves maths and programming would have written it in the same way and I'm not faking my interest toward them as you can check by following the links that I have given about different contest that I have participated in. Or do you want to say no-one other than you can like both. 3. The Timeline was, one feature that I liked in your proposal, so I used it. How its copying ? Your exact timeline will not even make sense for me,cause we are applying for different Projects. 4. And I did not understood "And you did not code for programming competency test, but have the same idea of implement of test" . What does this mean ? . Firstly I haven't read your proposal after you start describing "*far enough*" . So ,I did not know what you were doing in your test. Even if I knew what you have done or written there, do you think, you have claimed that way of solving the problem by putting it in your proposal ? And even after reading your proficiency test idea, the only thing that matches with my idea is the Basic-Distance function which is the first result that we get after googling the problem ? So , have we both copied from google ?? And please before going public with this, you could have at-least talked to me personally. I don't think Boost-Developer mailing list is meant for such discussions. Mailing list are made for communication that concerns the whole org not any individual. You could have directly mailed to me, before creating this nuisance. Genuinely you should be happy that people are following your style and if not, at least think a little before calling someone cheat because borrowing ideas are not equivalent to cheating , in anyway. I apologize to all for spamming their mail-boxes Thanks Satyam Pandey On Mon, Apr 3, 2017 at 5:12 AM, Satyam Pandey <satyampandey0009(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Ruyong, > I just wanted to explain my part here.

Hi, does someone know an equivalent of x86 'pause' mnemonic for ARMv6? Raspbian (-march=armv6) and Debian armel (-march=armv4) seam no to accept The 'yield' mnemonic seams no to be right in both cases. Or does boost.predef's BOOST_ARCH_ARM give a hint for both cases? ty, Oliver

BOOST license & GPL
by Oliver Kowalke 02 Apr '17

02 Apr '17

Hi, I encountered a open source project that is released under GPL and uses Boost - that's OK, because GPL and Boost license should be compatible. But the developers of those project copied code from Boost into their own library. The question is, is this new library now GPL or Boost license? Additionally, because they copied the code from several Boost files into one, they mixed up copyright statements. As a result, some people get copyright on code they never wrote. Seams to me that's not correct. Oliver

[gsoc17] My proposal
by GuillermoReyes 01 Apr '17

01 Apr '17

Dear Vissarion and Adam, My name is Guillermo- a Computer science student at UCLA. I am excited at the possibility of contributing to such a useful library! My application is not yet complete, but I will post my draft on here to demonstrate my intent to participate in the program. For the competency test, I began to implement a representation of points on earth and used the great-circle formula to calculate the shortest distance between two points. I will have a more in-depth explanation of the code by the final iteration of the draft along with the complete proposal and application. Sincerely, Guillermo R. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/gsoc17-My-proposal-tp4693288.html Sent from the Boost - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Stacktrace] Review 2 Manager report
by Niall Douglas 31 Mar '17

31 Mar '17

Many thanks to all those who participated in the second review of proposed Boost.Stacktrace. I received the following formal reviews: 1. Peter Dimov (ACCEPT) 2. Vladimir Batov (ACCEPT) 3. Artyom Bellis (CONDITIONAL ACCEPT) 4. Bjorn Reese (ACCEPT) 5. Edward Diener (ACCEPT) Extensive comments without a formal recommendation were also made by: 1. Mark Bartosik 2. Florian Weimer Some of the more important conditions for acceptance as judged by the review manager are: * Problems on FreeBSD (and by inference OS X?). * Per frame execution of addr2line rather than calling it once. * Throw-with-trace was asked for by a lot of people. * One reviewer suggested that the addr2line backend was async signal unsafe. My reading of the code is that it is async signal unsafe to parse a stacktrace (and unavoidably so on any platform), but the capture of backtraces is now fully async signal safe. * Some disliked the bringing in of windows.h and the COM headers on Windows. For a header only library I consider this acceptable, Stacktrace when configured in non-header only mode does not inject windows.h into everything including stacktrace. Congratulations to Antony on getting yet another library of his into Boost! Niall -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/

[Beast] Redesigned HTTP algorithms and parser!
by Vinnie Falco 31 Mar '17

31 Mar '17

Background: Websocket connections start with an HTTP UPGRADE request/response sequence. Often people want to customize this handshake so I added code in Beast to read and write HTTP messages. Upon reviewing the HTTP RFC (rfc2616 and rfc7230) it seemed to be logical that the HTTP message could be modeled as a single class. And there could be free functions implementing the algorithms to serialize and deserialize these messages in th HTTP/1 format. I took this as far as I could and I was pretty happy with the result. You have functions like read, async_read, write, and async_write which take beast::http::message objects as parameters. Example: http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/http__read/overload3.html The innovation here is the "Body" template type which controls not only the type of container used to represent the body but also the algorithms used to transfer bytes from the message body on the wire into and out of that container. The Body concept, and its nested Reader and Writer concepts, are documented here: http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Body.html http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Reader.html http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Writer.html Previous efforts and HTTP implementations focused heavily on the representation and parsing of the headers. To my knowledge Beast is the first implementation to provide caller flexibility in the body representation. Now the Beast websocket implementation has a reasonable set of primitives it could use to perform the handshake, and users could get control of that process. The Problem: Unfortunately, while treating the message as an object that can be read/written atomically works great for example programs and trivial use-cases, it fails in the real world. These are issues with it: * The caller must commit to a Body representation before receiving the HTTP Header * No way to properly read and respond to Expect: 100-continue * An efficient HTTP relay function (one that does not buffer the entire body up front) cannot be implemented by the caller * The caller cannot reasonably set a timeout, for example what if the body is 2 gigabytes received over a slow connection? * The parser interface forces algorithms to perform an unnecessary buffer copy for body containers that are entirely stored in memory (e.g std::string or boost::asio::streambuf). These issues sparked quite a bit of discussion on GitHub: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/issues/154 https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/issues/265 In October of 2016 these problems became apparent. I tried a lot of different ideas to improve the design to solve it, but none of them worked. Some of my co-workers looked at it but we didn't really find anything great. One user in particular, on GitHub, had strong ideas involving the concept of "completion conditions" to augment the read/parse algorithms but it didn't feel right to me. The Solution: After suffering from writer's block for 5 months inspiration hit and I tried a combination of interface changes that got the design to where it needs to be to solve these problems. * The Reader concept is refined into two types: "indirect" readers, and "direct" readers. This is described here: http://vinniefalco.github.io/stage/beast/beast/ref/Reader.html * The parser exposes a small number of internal states, informing callers of where it is at and giving the caller control over if and when the parser advances to the next state: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/http/basic_par… * The parser is rewritten to work only on linear buffers (allowing it to be optimized to become 20 times faster if SSE2 instructions are allowed). To facilitate this requirement, the flat_streambuf class is provided which works just like a basic_streambuf except it guarantees a single buffer. If the parser is given multiple buffers, it allocates memory to flatten it: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/core/flat_stre… * New functions parse_some and async_parse_some allow the caller to perform incremental parsing. This allows for the implementation of relay functions, or reading just the header (for Expect: 100-continue): https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/http/parse.hpp… With these changes callers can get control of the inner loop that reads the body off the socket or stream, so they can do whatever custom steps are necessary if they want. They can set timeouts, and write their own loop that calls parse_some repeatedly. I think it solves all of these issues. I've written some test code which demonstrates how direct and indirect body readers are implemented, and what calling code looks like. I've also written a prototype "relay" function (read a message from one socket and efficiently write it to another socket). And there's an example of how Expect: 100-continue might be implemented. These prototypes are located here: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/test/http/design.cpp#L30 How to Help? These are some controversial changes and I think they could use some polish and vetting before I merge it to the master branch. Maybe there is something I haven't thought of, or a use-case it doesn't address. Perhaps there is a better way, or perhaps there are tweaks to make it even more usable and understandable. If some kind soul(s) would look through it and offer some feedback, positive or negative, that would be enormously helpful. The formal review for Beast is now scheduled for the first week of July and like an expectant father I am anxious and would like everything to go just right! My only objective is to polish up the library and its documentation so it is in the best possible shape for review. Thanks for listening!
