Release Managers: permission to merge small feature to release?
by Marshall Clow 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

I have a ticket <https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7652> asking for compile-time checked access to elements of a boost::array. I have implemented a specialization of boost::get (and for c++11, std::get) that does this, and it's been on the trunk and being tested for a couple weeks. This is technically not a bug fix, but new functionality, but I'd like to get it into the next release. So, I'm asking permission to merge to release. The change lists are 82083 (for the functionality), 82084 and 82102 (for the tests), and 82103 (for the docs) Thanks! -- Marshall

[type_erasure] Overloading
by Christophe Henry 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hi Steven, I'm afraid I might need some help again. I try to take as model the example in the doc (http://steven_watanabe.users.sourceforge.net/type_erasure/libs/type_erasure…) First problem, it seems that the example has a typo. It will not compile without a :Base in the concept_interface specialization: struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,void>, Base, T, Enable> : Base ... Second, the example overload.cpp includes a as_param.hpp which no more exists. But my problem is that I need an overload with 1 and 2 parameters: Test t; any< mpl::vector< foo<_self, int>, foo<_self, int, double>, boost::type_erasure::copy_constructible<> > > x (t); x.foo(1); // calls foo(int) x.foo(1,1.0); // calls foo(int, double) I don't get this to compile, the second foo cannot be found, I suppose the first one hides the second. Thanks in advance, Christophe Here my failed attempt (well, one of them ;-) ): template<class T, class U, class V=void, class Enable=void> struct foo {}; template<class T, class U, class V> struct foo<T,U,V,typename boost::disable_if<boost::is_same<V,void> >::type > { static void apply(T& t, const U& u, const V& v) { t.foo(u,v); } }; template<class T, class U, class V> struct foo<T,U,V,typename boost::enable_if<boost::is_same<V,void> >::type > { static void apply(T& t, const U& u) { t.foo(u); } }; namespace boost { namespace type_erasure { template<class T, class U, class Base, class Enable> struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,void>, Base, T, Enable> : Base { typedef void _fun_defined; void foo(typename rebind_any<Base, const U&>::type arg) { call(::foo<T, U, void>(), *this, arg); } }; template<class T, class U, class V, class Base> struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,V>, Base, T, typename Base::_fun_defined> : Base { using Base::foo; void foo(typename rebind_any<Base, const U&>::type arg, typename rebind_any<Base, const V&>::type arg2) { call(::foo<T, U,V>(), *this, arg,arg2); } }; } } struct Test { void foo(int) { std::cout << "foo(int) called" << std::endl; } void foo(double) { std::cout << "foo(double) called" << std::endl; } void foo(int,double) { std::cout << "foo(int,double) called" << std::endl; } }; int main() { Test t; any< mpl::vector< foo<_self, int>, foo<_self, int, double>, boost::type_erasure::copy_constructible<> > > x (t); x.foo(1); // calls foo(int) x.foo(1,1.0); // calls foo(int, double) return 0; }

[algorithm] adjacent_for_each interest?
by Ian Hobson 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hi, Is there any interest in a version of for_each that operates on each adjacent pair of elements in a range? #include <iostream> #include <boost/algorithm/adjacent_for_each.hpp> void PrintInts(int a, int b) { std::cout << '(' << a << ", " << b << ")\n"; } int main() { const int ints[] = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}; boost::algorithm::adjacent_for_each(ints, ints + 5, PrintInts); } Output: (0, 1) (1, 2) (2, 3) (3, 4) Initial implementation available at http://github.com/irh/adjacent_for_each Best, Ian

[git] Bad superproject.
by Rene Rivera 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

In trying to use the new boost git superproject there's a reference to a non-existent subrepo "boostorg/spirit_classic.git". This of course makes it impossible to do a full clone. -- -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo

[Test] Allowing assert to break into debugger
by Alexander Lamaison 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Normally when debugging a program in Visual Studio 2005, the debugger will let the user break the program if it asserts. But when the program in a Boost.Test runner, that doesn't happen. In this thread [1] other people report the same problem but Gennadiy says that it should work. Was this ever fixed? I'm using Boost 1.50. [1] http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/BOOST-ASSERT-any-one-against-improving-d… Thanks, Alex -- Swish - Easy SFTP for Windows Explorer (http://www.swish-sftp.org)

[Installer] Windows 1.51 installer is broken
by Alexander Lamaison 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

I'm not sure who's dealing with this now, but the installer for 1.51 on Windows is broken with multiple File Not Found (404) errors. The sourceforge directory it tries to access seems to not be a real folder. Or at least it appear strangely when browsed: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/ Alex -- Swish - Easy SFTP for Windows Explorer (http://www.swish-sftp.org)
