Re: [boost] VC++ 7.1 build options lead to AV
Ashok Thirumurthi wrote: Dear Boost,
The following call stack leads to an access violation when I link a VC 7.1 DLL to the release build of the boost signals 1_33_0 DLL. In comparison, there is no access violation when I link to the debug build of the same library. Similarly, when I add the signals source to my own release DLL, there is no access violation. I attempted to disable all compiler optimizations in msvc.jam as follows. However, after running bjam -a in signals\build and installing the output, the AV still occurs.
You were commenting out BBv2 code. Boost.Signals is being build with BBv1 (if you were building it from the boost root), use "bjam -a --v2" to build with BBv2. Also, you can use:
bjam -a --v2 optimization=off
to turn off the optimization?
Thanks. Disabling all optimizations prevents the access violation.
How can I alter the release build to avoid the access violation?
Access violation reading location 0x00000004 (*((k2).content)).__vfptr is 0x00000000
bool operator()(const any& k1, const any& k2) const { if (k1.type() == typeid(front_type)) return !(k2.type() == typeid(front_type)); if (k1.type() == typeid(back_type)) return false;
if (k2.type() == typeid(front_type))
This looks to be an issue with either Boost.Any or your code. What is any::type() returning?
Actually, the () operator is crashing with the access violation. When I run without optimizations, k1.type is front_type and k2.type is back_type. If I optimize for speed (/O2), k1.content is null and k2.content.__vfptr is null. So, type() cannot be evaluated. If I optimize for size (/O1), I observe an invalid lock sequence exception (0xC000001E) when constructing a _Tree_ptr.
Have you made sure that RTTI is enabled for everything (including your own project -- is there a difference in the vcproj Configurations?)
Yes.
Are you doing something in the Debug version that is not in the Release version?
Are you linking with the right variant of the boost libraries? Is there a conflict with the run-time library being used?
I can reproduce the problem and the work-around by compiling the boost source into a DLL using a VC++ 7.1 project. Initially, I had used the bjam scripts without any modification after installing the full 1_33 source. I was able to reproduce the problem with boost 1_32. However, I'm not sure how to determine if a conflict exists. Thanks to your advice regarding bjam, I have a work-around in hand, - Ashok

My first impression is that this is a bit over-bureaucratic. You
obviously
need this sort of style managing 8 offspring ;-) , but Boosters are all volunteers and we have to be greatful for all the help we can get.
Authors are severely handicapped when writing documentation by knowing too much.
And they are often exhausted by the process of getting the code to work on the myriad of inconsistent platforms and versions.
So _any_ documentation editing is likely to be an improvement.
So I think you should just ask for someone (usually only one - we don't have _common_ tools for handling versioning and changes well) willing to contribute to editing each library. The code author and the editor will have to try to agree: only if they are uncertain should theygo out to the wider Boost audience.
Since I have the advantage of having English as my first language (and not the corrupted version of those renegage ex-colonials ;-), and I have enough knowledge of other languages to greatly admire those whose first language is not English struggling with the erudite esoteric elite Boost discussions, I may offer to edit some documentation.

I vageuely remember trying to kill GCC 2.95.3 support at one point, but was convinced otherwise. We could just mark it as unusable on new libraries/tests that support it but retain backward compatibility on those libraries that do.

In that case we might as well just roll-back the changes from the RC branch to the main branch.
There haven't been any changes to the test itself, and the only changes in the headers appear to be:
and related changes.
I'd still rather see this fixed than just rolled back (I presume these changes were in there for a reason?), or we could disable them for broken compilers if that works (but we need to know why they were in there in the first place, this could be a fix for VC6/7 for all I know).
BTW I don't have a Boost source tree (or compiler) to work with at present to test this out, since I've just replaced my hard drive!
Hopefully this narrows the problem down a bit?
John.

If not "don't," how will we know we're retaining backward compatibility?
