The following snippet is the mock-up of the problem I am having in order to be able to reproduce.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/range.hpp>
#include <boost/range/adaptors.hpp>
#include <boost/range/algorithm.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/assign.hpp>
using namespace boost::assign;
struct wxSize
{
wxSize(int height=0,int width=0):m_height(height),m_width(width)
{ }
int GetWidth() const {return m_width;}
int m_height;
int m_width;
};
class wxWindowBase
{
public:
wxSize GetTextExtent(const std::string val)
{
return wxSize(0,val.length());
}
void DoLayout(std::vector<std::string> m_FilteredItems)
{
using boost::adaptors::transformed;
wxSize longest = *boost::max_element(m_FilteredItems | transformed(boost::bind(&wxWindowBase::GetTextExtent,this,_1)),
boost::bind(std::less<int>(),boost::bind(&wxSize::GetWidth,_1),boost::bind(&wxSize::GetWidth,_2)));
std::cout <<longest.GetWidth();
}
};
int main()
{
std::vector<std::string> input;
input += "o","two","threexxx","four";
wxWindowBase window;
window.DoLayout(input);
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The above code fails to compile on GCC4.7.2 and MSVC10 although
it compiles and runs fine on clang3.3
From what I understand ,transformed returns a Single Pass Range and max_element expects a ForwardRange
and that's the gist of the problem.But it works for something like
max_element(someint_vector | transformed(doubleit()),std::less<int>()); without problems.
Is there a elegant way to achieve what I am trying to without using a intermediate container?
Thanks in advance..
I would try simplifying things (e.g., replace the uses of bind with explicit function objects; define an operator< for wxSize), then if you're still lost, paste the error (I don't have immediate access to MSVC 10 or gcc 4.7).
