Preprocessor Sum Shift
by Mitch Besser 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

I would like to take the following Sequence of Tuples: ((A, 1)) ((B, 1)) ((C, 1)) ((D, 2)) ((E, 4)) and create a summation as follows: ((A, 0)) ((B, 1)) ((C, 2)) ((D, 3)) ((E, 5)) I've been able to produce the following summation: ((A, 1)) ((B, 2)) ((C, 3)) ((D, 5)) ((E, 9)) Which is close to correct but is shifted. No matter what I try, I can't create the desired result. It seems the preprocessor library just doesn't have enough power to do the job, but maybe there's a way to do this I can't see. For those interested, the input represents member variables and their respective sizes. The output is member variables and their respective offsets within the struct (byte aligned in the example case). The ultimate goal is to generate some test case code, so feel free to suggest a non-preprocessor way to do the same thing. As an aside, I get warnings in the case where there is only 1 Tuple in the Sequence ((A, 1)). It would be nice to solve this too. Thanks email: <pdx247(a)yahoo.com>

[newbie-unordered_set] string example
by Soumen 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

I'm using boost 1.35. I wanted to use boost::intrusive::unordered_set for std::string - couldn't find an example how to do it. Can someone give a small example? As of now I've coded using from tr1 in following way - typedef std::tr1::unordered_set< std::string, boost::hash< std::string > > Hash; Hash tbl; tbl.insert("abcd"); bool found = tbl.find("xyz") == tbl.end() ? true : false; Regards, - Soumen -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/-newbie-unordered_set--string-example-tp26009431p2600… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

linker error with Boost serialization on 64 bit box. Works fine on 32 bit box.
by Mangal 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

Hi I am using STLPort 5.2.1 and Boost1_40_0 with MSVC 9.0. I have successfully compiled boost libs with STLPort and am using the Graph, filesystem and DateTime libraries. I use dynamic linking of STLPort libs. All the projects build and run fine. Today I started looking at the serialization library and just compiling the basic demo threw a 100 linker errors. All the paths for boost libs and STLPort binaries are correct. This is on a 64 bit system. When i ran the same code for serialization on a 32 bit box it compiled and ran fine. Is there some setting I am missing for 64 bit systems? Thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/linker-error-with-Boost-serialization-on-64-bit-box.-… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Interprocess] interprocess_upgradable_mutex and recursivity
by Gaetan Gaumer 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

Hello, is there a specific raison why the interprocess_upgradable_mutex is non-recursive ? I need the "Sharable lock" functionality of these mutexes but non-recursivity is a big problem for my usage. Is there a solution to have both "sharability" and "recursivity" in an shared memory storable mutex ? Thanks for your help, Gaëtan

[conversion] Release v0.4: Replace function template specialization by ADL
by vicente.botet 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

Hi, I have just released the version 0.4 of Boost.Conversion , which includes since my last publicly announced version 0.3: Replace function template specialization by ADL A Source class is convertible to a Target class if: * Either: A function with the signature convert_to<Target>(Source const&, boost::dummy::type_tag<To> const&) is available via argument dependent lookup * Or: A template specialization of boost::conversion::convert_to<Target, Source> exists for Target and Source * Or: Target is copy constructible from Source (default implementation) The template function convert_to allows to convert a source type to a target type, using argument dependent lookup to select a specialized convert_to function if available. If no specialized convert_to function is available, boost::conversion::convert_to is used. The generic convert_to function requires that the elements to be converted are assignable and copy constructible. It is implemented using the Target copy construction from a Source or the Source conversion operator Target - this is sometimes unavailable. For standard types, we can not add a specialized convert_to function on the namespace std. The alternative to using argument dependent lookup in this situation is to provide a template specialization of boost::conversion::convert_to for every pair of standard types that requires a specialized convert_to. You can found all the detail for dowloading, documentation, ... in http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/LibrariesUnderConstruction#Boost.Conve… I'd appreciate it if people could take a look, test it on their compiler and give me some feedback. Thanks to Edward Diener for showing me that multiple assignments should be taken in account. Thanks also to Jeffrey Hellrung and Robert Stewart for showing me that Boost.Conversion should use also ADL. BTW, I'm looking for a review manager. Anyone around here who would like to volunteer? Best regards, _____________________ Vicente Juan Botet Escribá

Re: [Boost-users] Use of ccache with Boost
by Dalton, Tom 27 Oct '09

27 Oct '09

Further to my questions from last week: I've tried both methods - first I tried changing the toolset to make the gcc toolset use "ccache g++" as the compiler executable. I had some problems with that, so I tried the symlink approach suggested by Roland. This is also failing, with some seemingly very subtle bug that I can't suss out. The build progresses a little way, until it gets to libs/program_options/src/cmdline.cpp When g++ isn't a symlink to ccache, I get the following output as shown by the attachment build.log.1.fragment. When I have gcc & g++ symlinks in the ccache bin dir pointing to ccache (the PATH is ccache/bin:real_gcc/bin), the output is like the second attachment and the file fails. The build logs diverge from that point onwards as more and more stuff either fails, or is skipped due to previous failures. There are 2 issues that I can see from those logs. Firstly the line numbering on the .hpp includes is one-out on the ccache-enabled build. Does this mean the preprocessor is behaving strangely? Secondly, on line 15 of the failing fragment file, it looks like part of the output is cut off (at the end of the line, it gets "boost::_bi::list2<boost::_bi::v0.000008 sec system; 0.000164 sec user". Can anyone help me? I don't know what would cause either of these issues.
