Hello please anyone some one must have a example or something using the dynamic bitset? Has anyone got a few good examples of the dynamic bitset been used with member functions like append and block type? If so could you please send in some thanks. Michael

The property_map documentation says that "the get() function > takes a property map object [...] and a key object"; is that the get() > that's used there? Well, no :(. The get() being used there is actually part of the PropertyGraph concept, documented here: http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/PropertyGraph.html When you have an interior property p (like vertex_name_t in the example graph) and graph g, the expression get(p, g) gives you a property map for that particular property and graph, that can be "indexed" with the appropriate key (e.g., a vertex or edge descriptor). > So vertex_name is a map of maps, with a Graph as a key? This analogy actually works (much to my surprise!), so long as you don't push it too far :) So yes, get(vertex_name, g) returns a map from vertices in g to the name of the vertex. > And where is the interface to property_map defined? > boost_1_31_0\libs\graph\doc\using_property_maps.html says that it's > defined in boost_1_31_0\libs\property_map\property_map.html, but that > just > contains another example, and I can't find which header declares it -- I > can't see it in property_map.hpp which is where I expected it to be! The actual struct template property_map is used (only!) to get the return type of, e.g., get(vertex_name, g). It is defined in boost/graph/properties.hpp, but the definition won't help much because I don't think that's quite what you're asking for. When you use get(vertex_name, g) you get back a property map. There's no single type that defines a property map, because it's a concept. To find out what you can do with a property map, check out: http://www.boost.org/libs/property_map/property_map.html Specifically, you want the links to the ReadablePropertyMap, WriteblePropertyMap, and LvaluePropertyMap concepts.

Janusz, I'm using version 3.1.0-1 of mingw (its basically the current release that you can download at www.mingw.org) THanks, Alex PS.

Newbie: What is the actual return type?
by Tim Rowe 20 Jun '04

20 Jun '04

In the Kevin Bacon example in the Boost::Graph documentation, we declare: typedef adjacency_list < vecS, vecS, undirectedS, property < vertex_name_t, std::string >, property < edge_name_t, std::string > > Graph; Graph g; and later declare and call: typedef property_map < Graph, vertex_name_t >::type actor_name_map_t; actor_name_map_t actor_name = get(vertex_name, g); What are we actually getting back here? I can see that we can index it (we do later), but is it just an array? Or a vector? Or what? I assume I am /supposed/ to know (not like Ada's "type foo is private"), so that I know what I can do with it! TIA, Tim Rowe

Hi, I have encountered similar problem that you solved after "some fiddling". Can you specify what exactly you did to successfully compile Boost.Python?

Hi All, I have a problem in compiling my very first example in BGL - quick_tour.cpp, using boost-1_31, VC 6.0 and native Microsoft stl.

Thanks a lot for your advice, Kagan Boris.

INI File Parser?
by Duane Murphy 18 Jun '04

18 Jun '04

A while back, I noted that there was an INI file parser as part of boost. It was obscure, but I think it was in the program_options library. I note references to program_options searching the web site, but I'm not finding anything in the latest builds. I'm specifically interested in parsing INI files (I'm on a Macintosh) but the program_options library also seemed interesting. Is there anything available? What's the status of the program_options library? Thanks for any pointers, ...Duane

How to Compile boost::function With a NoArg Member Function ?

Hi, I need to use boost::function in a context like this one: struct Widget { string ToString() {return "Widget"; } }; int main() { function<string () f(&Widget::ToString); } What's the correct syntax to sucessfully compile this example ?
