[boost.atomic] linker error with gcc 4.1.2
by Jamie Allsop 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

With gcc 4.1.2 (gcc 4.3.x is fine) I am seeing this linker error: .build/debug/working/SourceOne.o: In function `void boost::detail::atomic::platform_atomic_thread_fence<boost::memory_order>(boost::memory_order)': /thirdparty/boost/boost_1_42/boost/smart_ptr/detail/shared_count.hpp:229: multiple definition of `void boost::detail::atomic::platform_atomic_thread_fence<boost::memory_order>(boost::memory_order)' .build/debug/working/SourceTwo.o: /thirdparty/boost/boost_1_42/boost/atomic/detail/gcc-x86.hpp:63: first defined here Which doesn't make a lot of sense at first glance, but on closer inspection I see that: boost/atomic/detail/base.hpp defines platform_atomic_thread_fence as: template<typename T> static inline void platform_atomic_thread_fence(T order) { /* FIXME: this does not provide sequential consistency, need one global variable for that... */ platform_atomic<int> a; a.exchange(0, order); } and then it is defined as a specialisation in: boost/atomic/detail/gcc-x86.hpp as: template<> void platform_atomic_thread_fence(memory_order order) { switch(order) { case memory_order_seq_cst: full_fence(); case memory_order_acquire: case memory_order_consume: case memory_order_acq_rel: case memory_order_release: __asm__ __volatile__ ("" ::: "memory"); default:; } } Is this a compiler error or should the specialisation be declared as: template<> inline void platform_atomic_thread_fence(memory_order order) (which will work) Suggestions?

[type traits] add a set of templates to propagate const etc from one type to another?
by Vasilis Vasaitis 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hello, I've been looking at the Type Traits library recently, and it looks wonderful overall. However, it's lacking a use case that I end up needing quite often, so I thought I'd suggest it in case the authors and/or other users of the library find it useful. Allow me to explain. So Type Traits has the add_const / remove_const / is_const triplet (and similar for a few other type properties). add_const is great when you always know that you want to add the const, but sometimes you only want to do it conditionally to another type being const. So recently I've ended up using something like this from quite a few places in my code: template<class Source, class Target> struct propagate_const { typedef Target type; }; template<class Source, class Target> struct propagate_const<const Source, Target> { typedef const Target type; }; That is, propagate_const<Source, Target> will only add const to Target if Source is const too. What are the use cases for this? Well, for example recently I was writing an iterator class, and I wanted to avoid duplicating the code for the const_iterator case. Not a big deal, as it turned out, as I could just pass a const type as the template argument and have it behave as the const iterator. The only problem was that I was doing some pointer arithmetic with reinterpret_casts from T* to char* and back (where T is the template argument), so the compiler would complain if T was const. So instead of char I defined this: typedef typename propagate_const<T, char>::type char_type; Of course I could also have done this with a combination of is_const and add_const, but this would probably require more code than the propagate_const definition above. So what do people think? Would it be a useful addition alongside add_* and remove_*? Thanks, Vasilis P.S. Please CC me in your replies, as I've set the mailing lists to not send me emails (similar to not being subscribed). -- Vasilis Vasaitis "A man is well or woe as he thinks himself so."

command line parameters parser
by Denis Shevchenko 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hi! Sorry for my English, I am from Russia. Is there any interest in a library which parse command line parameters and call correspond functions/functors? Features: - check type of parameter, - check "value semantic" of parameter, - set necessity of parameter, - maybe set default value for parameter, - some other settings. Example: void help() { std::cout << "This is my help info!" << std::endl; ::exit( 0 ); // Exit after printing help info. } struct config_file { void operator()( const std::string& file ) { // Some work with obtaining file path. } }; void limit( const std::string& some_limit_value ) { // int limit = boost::lexical_cast< int >( some_limit_value ); // ... } int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { typedef command_line_parameter_parser clp_parser; clp_parser parser; parser.add_parameter( "-h", "--help", help ); // Short and full names, in Unix tradition. // In this case we define parameter with one name and value (it is must be valid path); // Without check_value() obtaining path will not be checked. parser.add_parameter( "--config", config_file, clp_parser::with_value ).check_value( clp_parser::path ); parser.add_parameter( "-l", "--limit", limit ).check_type( clp_parser::integer ); // Is integer? parser.set_value_separator( ':' ); // "--config:/home/file.conf" instead default "--config=/home/file.conf" try { parser.parse( argc, argv ); } catch ( const std::exception& exc ) { std::cerr << exc.what() << std::endl; } ... return 0; } Denis

[1.39][preprocessor] "preprocessor/wstringize.hpp" not included by "preprocessor.hpp"
by Adam Badura 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

It seems that "preprocessor.hpp" includes (through "preprocessor/library.hpp") "preprocessor/stringize.hpp" but not "preprocessor/wstringize.hpp". I don't know whether this occurs in 1.42 as well but I guess it may. Adam Badura

boost::optional<A,B,...>
by Daniel Larimer 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

I have a situation where I have a class that stores two mutually exclusive optional values. This results in double overhead of two bools and twice the "reserved" space. I could opt for a boost::optional<boost::variant<A,B> >, but this would incur extra costs associated with the implementation of boost::variant. Considering the fact that boost::variant<> explicitly guarantees to be always "valid", it seems like it would be reasonable to have boost::optional<A,...> that behaves like boost::variant<>, yet is optimized specifically for allowing "empty" states as well. The boolean could then become the type index where 0 is empty, 1 is A, 2 is B etc. Thoughts? Dan

Hello! I have a small library that is intended for convenient and declarative resource wrappers creation. Read Documentation: http://rain.ifmo.ru/~sorokin/rcpp/doc/index.html Main Page: http://rain.ifmo.ru/~sorokin/rcpp/ Although this library is small I think it is useful. I think it is possible to use it in implementations of asio, filesystem and thread. **-- Ivan Sorokin

Another implementation of properties.
by Germán Diago 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hello. I've been trying to implement properties for c++0x, for now. I've come up with this solution for now. You need g++ svn to test it. It's a partial implementation, since not every operator is overloaded. Space overhead: - one pointer to the object per property instance. - the pointer to the member functions is shared among every instance of the class, so it's a per-class and not per-instance overhead, which is negligible. Usage: class Person { int getAge() const { .... }; void setAge(int age) { ... }; PROPS_RWPROPERTY(Age); Person() : Age(this) {} }; You can: - declare getters/setters const or nonconst. - getters must have one parameter. - setters must return void. - it has some operators overloaded, but the idea is to overload all of them if the implementation is all right. - the property returns whatever you put in your getter and gets as a parameter what you put in the setter. If you declare the getters and setters to be VIRTUAL, you get virtual behaviour, so you can use virtual properties, even with pure virtual functions, and it will work. Caveats: - Needs c++0x compiler for now. - Not enforced the read-only access for properties for now. I need extended friend declarations for that, and the operator= would be made private with friend class. But for now it's not reinforced. I think this implementation is pretty usable as-is. It's just a matter of extending it. I don't use the offset trick because I think it does not work with classes with virtual members, but I'm not sure. The implementation contains Trivial properties as well, which for now, are the same as fields I think. Implementation: #include <functional> #include <type_traits> #include <iostream> #ifndef _PROPS_PROPERTY_HPP_ #define _PROPS_PROPERTY_HPP_ namespace props { template <class GetterAddress, class SetterAddress> class RWProperty; template <class GetterAddress, class SetterAddress> class ROProperty; template <class PropType> class TROProperty; template <class PropType> class TRWProperty; namespace detail { struct unused {}; template <bool cond, class T = void> struct EnableIf { typedef T type;

Hi, I'm a newbie with mpl and I'm trying to execute some example code from the book "C++ Template Metaprogramming", by Abrahams and Gurtovoy: >From section 5.2, p. 78, Sequences and Algorithms: I wrote this code: // // mpltest.C // #include<boost/mpl/vector.hpp> using namespace boost; typedef mpl::vector<char,short,int,long,float,double> types; typedef mpl::find<types,long>::type long_pos; int main() { } And I get this compiler error on the mpl::find line: $ g++ mpltest.C -ompltest mpltest.C:10: error: expected initializer before ‘<’ token Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[Filesystem V3] Filesystem Version 3 beta 1 available for download and comment
by Beman Dawes 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

The first beta release of Boost.Filesystem Version 3 is now available. The documentation can be viewed at http://mysite.verizon.net/beman/v3/index.htm Important differences from the prior version: http://mysite.verizon.net/beman/v3/v3.html The beta can be downloaded from the Boost vault. See http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?&direction=0&order=&directory=Files… Installing the beta is described at http://mysite.verizon.net/beman/v3/install_distro.html I'm concerned about breaking existing code. While some workarounds have been provided already, I'd open to further suggestions as to how to mitigate code breakage. The tentative plan for integrating V3 into the boost release cycle involves several steps: * For the first boost release cycle, ship V2 as the default, but V3 is present and can be activated by users. * For an additional boost release cycle, ship V3 as the default, but V2 is present (but deprecated) and can be activated by users. * For the following boost release cycle, V2 is removed and no longer supported. The plan is to go through as many beta cycles as needed to reach stability. Although quite a bit of testing has already been done, this is definitely beta software that isn't ready yet for production use. Any comments appreciated. --Beman

[range] resulting range type
by Andrey Torba 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

Hi All, When i implement range based algorithms i always have to write `boost::iterator_range<typename boost::range_iterator<R>::type>'. It is pretty annoying. i.e.: template<class R> boost::iterator_range<typename boost::range_iterator<R>::type> Algo(R& r); I would like to have special metafunction in Boost.Range for such cases to make code more cleaner: template<class R> typename boost::make_range<R>::type Algo(R& r); What do you think? -- Regards, Andrey

[graph] gcc 3.4 & 4.0 currently broken
by Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

boost svn trunk rev 60079 broke our gcc 3.4 and 4.0 builds (various platforms). The problem is line 52 in boost/graph/two_bit_color_map.hpp BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(elements_per_char > 0); It fails with (gcc 3.4 in this case): % g++ -o boost/libs/python/src/object/inheritance.o -c -DBOOST_PYTHON_MAX_BASES=2 -DBOOST_PYTHON_SOURCE -DBOOST_PYTHON_BOOL_INT_STRICT -fPIC -fno-strict-aliasing -w -DNDEBUG -O3 -ffast-math -ftrapping-math -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB -DBOOST_DISABLE_THREADS -I/net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost -I/usr/include/python2.3 /net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost/libs/python/src/object/inheritance.cpp In file included from /net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost/boost/graph/breadth_first_search.hpp:26, from /net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost/libs/python/src/object/inheritance.cpp:7: /net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost/boost/graph/two_bit_color_map.hpp:52: error: non-constant `(((int)boost::two_bit_color_map<IndexMap>::elements_per_char) > 0)' cannot be used as template argument /net/chevy/raid1/rwgk/hot/boost/boost/graph/two_bit_color_map.hpp:52: error: `value' is not a member of `<declaration error>' Commenting out line 52 resolves the error. I printed the value of elements_per_char and it appears to be correct (4). There is no problem with gcc 3.2 and gcc 4.1 through 4.4. Maybe a BOOST_WORKAROUND to disable the static assert for 3.4 and 4.0? Ralf

[uuid] basic_random_generator doesn't produce a fully randomized uuid when sizeof(unsigned long) == 4
by Sylvester-Bradley, Gareth 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

Hi Andy, I wonder if the following is a flaw in basic_random_generator<> (boost/uuid/uuid_generators.hpp, line 366-374)? On many platforms sizeof(unsigned long) == 4. This means that the first 8 bytes of the uuid are populated with random data, but in my tests the remaining 8 bytes are populated with repeated data, and then only by relying on the undefined behaviour of >> when its "right operand is greater than or equal to the length in bits of the promoted left operand." For example, try the following test program with a Win32 build by Visual C++ 9.0 - #include <iostreams> #include <boost/uuid/uuid_generators.hpp> #include <boost/uuid/uuid_io.hpp> int main( int, char*[] ) { std::cout << boost::uuids::random_generator()() << std::endl; return 0; } This produced for me: f1633d75-ee94-47b9-ae94-37b9ee9437b9 Or wrapped to show the problem: f1633d75- ee94-47b9- ae94-37b9 ee94 37b9 Is 8 bytes of randomness enough, or is this a mistake?

Boost.Log formal review upcoming
by Vladimir Prus 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

Boosters, the formal review of the Boost.Log library, written by Andrey Semashev, will start in a week from now, on March 8, 2010 and will run through March 17, 2010. The documentation for the current version is available at: http://boost-log.sourceforge.net The downloads at at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost-log Because the library is relatively big and important, you might want to take a look in advance, without waiting for the formal review. Please note that reports of real-world usage will be particularly appreciated -- even if you don't have the time to to do everything formal review checklist requires please still report your experiences. To clarify timelines, the formal reviews are accepted from 23:59, March 7, PST = 2:59, March 8, EST = 7:59 March 8, GMT = 10:59, March 8 MSK until 23:59, March 17, PST = 2:59, March 18, EST = 7:59 March 18, GMT = 10:59, March 18 MSK Reviews submitted outside of this frame are not guaranteed to be processed.

Boost.Coroutine
by Daniel Larimer 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

I am attempting to use boost.coroutine; however, it is not behaving for me. Perhaps someone could shed some light? Here is what happens: 1 start coroutine A 2 do some work.... 3 my_wait_for_value() 4 future<R> f(self); 5 callback = make_callback(f); 6 r = do_wait( f ) 7 boost::coroutines::wait( f ) // blocks and the coroutine exits , goto A 8 return *f; 9 print( "here" ) 10 return r; 11 do some more work A start coroutine B B do some work C callback_from_coroutine_A ( R ) // goto line 8 D .... back to line 8 8 r = *f; // got the right future value 9 print("here") 10 return r; 11 ????? After returning r on line 10, I should end up back on line 11, but instead end up on line D. I clearly setup the future, waited, started another coroutine, set the value of the future, returned 2 levels of the stack, but the 3rd level dumped me off back in a different coroutine. Running on Mac OS X 10.6. Single threaded code. Dan

the best possible c++ properties (implementation).
by Germán Diago 02 Mar '10

02 Mar '10

Hello. I've been trying hard to implement the best possible properties sytem in c++ (version 0x). For now, I'm quite satisfied with the result, but it can be improved a little. The properties are implemented in a header called (surprisingly!) Property.hpp Classes: template TROProperty and TRWProperty for trivial properties, which are those which you can use very straightforward without defining setters or getters and it stores the property value inside. templates RWProperty and ROProperty, for which you need to define a storage (if needed) and getters and setters. FEATURES: - You can define a getter as a function that returns *ANYTHING* and it will deduce parameters, constness and everything it needs. - You can define a setter as a function that returns void and takes one parameter. The deduction machinery will do the rest. So, for trivial properties there is little to explain: class Person { public: TROProperty<unsigned int> Age; Person(int age) : Age(age) {} }; int main(int argc, char * argv[]) { Person p(26); cout << p.Age << endl; } For elaborated properties, you have freedom in defining the get and set functions, as long as the get function gets just one parameter and the set function sets one parameter and returns void. The usage of elaborated properties is done through a macro: class Agenda { typedef Agenda ClassName; //Needed for elaborated properties. vector<Person> persons_; Person * getCurrentPerson() { return persons_[Position]; } public: TrivialProperty<int> Position; PROP_ROPROPERTY(CurrentPerson); .... Agenda() : PROP_PROPERTY_INIT(CurrentPerson) {}; }; And now it's ready to be used. For now the features are: -Implicit conversion to the underlying type. -Operator overloading (just a sample of the possible operators, just implemented operator++ and some others) -Comparison operators... -Construction assignment, etc from any other property that has a convertible type or from a data type that makes sense. - Move and copy construction where it makes sense. - Compare, for example, a Property<int> to an int or another property with a convertible value to a Property<int>. If it makes sense, it must work. The same for any other operator. - You can obtain the underlying type for a property through operator(), which makes sense in some contexts. For example, suppose you have a class Person with properties Name, SurName and Age and a class Agenda with a property CurrentPerson which returns a pointer to a Person. You can do like this: string name = agenda.CurrentPerson().Name; you can assign Name to a string or any other property that accepts a string (untested but you could). But you don't need operator() when implicit conversion takes place. personsbyage_[aperson.Age] //No need for operator(), implicit conversion Caveats: ROProperty TROProperty I cannot enforce a private operator= because for that I need a workaround I don't know of or extended friend declarations, which are part of c++0x. So for now, these properties are exactly the same as their writeable counterparts without read-only enforcement. In the implementation part, for elaborated properties I have a template like this: template <class Getter, class Setter> class RWProperty; The same goes for ROProperty. Just with that and the macro to ease the writing of properties, you can get a property. These properties must be constructed with the this pointer AND the pointer to member functions. I'm experimenting (but I can't find a way to do it) with something like this: template <class Getter, class Setter, Getter, Setter> class RWProperty; so that the construction of properties wouldn't need the pointers, because they would be passed as template parameters. But inside the template I have an ambiguity problem. Getter and Setter are pointer to member function types and Getter and Setter parameters are the addresses. For now I've found the properties very usable. The only caveats are the enforcement of operator= and the passing of pointer to members as part of initialization. If I can solve those, we can get a good properties implementation of properties and the initialization of elaborated properties would be just with the this pointer (and a value if you want to initialize with a value). This is a work in progress. For now I've used c++0x, but I think I can use BOOST_TYPEOF (maybe) and some other things in order to translate it to current c++. The code is attached. It's an (unfinished) miniapplication of an Agenda made in gtkmm compiled under g++ 4.5 svn. Take a look at the Property.hpp and the application and tell me what you think. I would like to be able to pass pointer to member functions as template arguments in order to avoid initialization of pointers as parameters. compile with: g++ -std=c++0x `pkg-config gtkmm-2.4 --libs --cflags` Person.cpp Agenda.cpp Window.cpp main.cpp -o Agenda You can just add people with "Añadir" Button and traverse with < and > button. It does not do anything special, it's just to test properties.

[iostreams][patch] position_to_offset() is broken for Microsoft Visual C++/Dinkumware
by Sylvester-Bradley, Gareth 02 Mar '10

02 Mar '10

The recent work on Boost.Iostreams by Richard Smith and Daniel James has really improved this library. Thanks guys; this kind of maintenance is really appreciated. I have found a bug in position_to_offset() on Microsoft Visual C++/Dinkumware demonstrated by the following test app - #include <iostream> #include <boost/iostreams/positioning.hpp> int main( int, char*[] ) { const boost::int64_t twoGB = 2 << 30; std::streampos pos = boost::iostreams::offset_to_position( twoGB ); pos -= 2; if ( twoGB - 2 != boost::iostreams::position_to_offset( pos ) ) { std::cout << "Failed!" << std::endl; return -1; } return 0; } This has the potential to affect many parts of Boost.Iostreams but in particular it means the "small seeks optimization" in indirect_streambuf.hpp is broken. I believe this is resolved by the following patch to boost/iostreams/positioning.hpp. 105,106c105,106 < static_cast<stream_offset>(static_cast<std::streamoff>(pos)) - < static_cast<stream_offset>(_FPOSOFF(streampos_to_fpos_t(pos))); --- > static_cast<stream_offset>(static_cast<std::streamoff>(pos) - > _FPOSOFF(streampos_to_fpos_t(pos))); Raised on Trac: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3969 Best regards, Gareth ************************************************************************ The information contained in this message or any of its attachments may be confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s).

Boost_Test: Initialize fixture only once
by Dmytro Ovdiienko 02 Mar '10

02 Mar '10

Hello All, I have a question about boost test. Please help. I have set of test_suites. Every test_suite consists of a bunch of test_cases. Every test case should be initialized before execution. So, I created Fixture for every test_suite. The problem is Fixture initialization takes a lot of time and boost creates it for every test_case (not for every test_suite) How to solve this? Best regards. Dima

[iostreams] array and gzip_decompressor
by Nikolay Mladenov 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

Recently I came back to a source written some time ago, that was running then but it is not compiling now. the failing snippet is: typedef boost::iostreams::composite<boost::iostreams::gzip_decompressor, boost::iostreams::array_source> array_gzip_decompressor; boost::iostreams::gzip_decompressor filter; boost::iostreams::array_source source(&_storage[0], _storage.size()); array_gzip_decompressor dev(filter,source); boost::iostreams::stream_buffer<array_gzip_decompressor> ibuf(dev); the error is: > boost\iostreams\read.hpp(191) : error C2039: 'putback' : is not a member of 'boost::iostreams::detail::direct_adapter<Direct>' > with [ Direct=boost::iostreams::array_source ] It seems to me that gzip_decompressor requires peekable source, but array_source is not peekable. Is there another way I should be creating gzipped stream into memory? Or maybe the arrays could be made peekable? Thanks in advance, Nikolay Mladenov

boost::optional<void>
by Daniel Larimer 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

I am writing some generic code and would like to handle "all values" the same way; however, I keep running into the problem of return void return types that need "special treatment". There is nothing I can do about it most of the time except template specialization. That said, it would be helpful if boost::optional<void> could have some sensible default implementation where it acts more or less like a boolean. As it is, I will probably provide my own specialization of boost::optional to simplify my templates. Any thoughts on this? Dan

[ITL][Review] A late mini review
by Thomas Klimpel 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

> Please always state in your review, whether you think the > library should be accepted as a Boost library. ITL should be accepted as a Boost library. > - What is your evaluation of the design? I haven't spend sufficient time reviewing the library to be able to judge the design. At least, I haven't seen any obvious flaws during my short review. > - What is your evaluation of the implementation? I took a cursory look at all source (header) files, and they look nicely written. I took a cursory look at the directory structure, to verify that it follows boost conventions. It does so in general, but I was surprised to find a "libs/itl/build" folder, since I "know" that ITL is a headers only library. The content of the build folder also didn't make me happy (it's extremely "unportable"), but this is a completely different topic that has nothing to do with this specific library. The template meta programming in boost/itl/type_traits/* could follow MPL conventions more closely. > - What is your evaluation of the documentation? The documentation is nicely written. However, please don't invent new words like "aggrovering" or "unon". Please also try to avoid changing the meaning of existing words like "neutron". > - What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? The need to work with "interval sets" arises sufficiently frequently in "time based" and "geometry based" problem domains to warrant a library dedicated especially to this problem domain. (In my review of Boost.Polygon, I pointed out that interval set concepts were missing.) I have to admit that I haven't spend sufficient time evaluating ITL to be able to judge whether ITL is able to handle all these needs. > - Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems? No, I didn't try to use the library. > - How much effort did you put into your evaluation? > A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? Some month ago, I read through the documentation just for the pleasure it gave me, pondered a bit about the concept and looked at the BoostCon2009 slide show. I was certainly planning to do a proper review during the review period, but I was (and still am) occupied with other things. What I've done now while writing this review was just a glance. > - Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain? This is not important in this case, since I haven't spend enough time for the review anyway. Regards, Thomas P.S.: As I guessed from recent experience, the review period has just been extended. However, I decided to submit this mini review nevertheless. I may have a look at "I have to admit that I haven't spend sufficient time evaluating ITL to be able to judge whether ITL is able to handle all these needs." with respect to the issue raised by Phil Endecott in http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2010/02/162198.php (and write about it in case I can make up my own opinion), because this seems to be an interesting question. Even so I want to thank Phil Endecott for his courage to bring up this issue, and I guess that he is right (in a certain sense), I think it is wiser to base my review only on my personal experiences and not on my judgment of whether Phil is right or wrong with respect to this issue.
