[asio] endpoint lifetime requirements with acceptor
by Jeff Flinn 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

What is the lifetime requirement of a boost::asio::ip::tcp::endpoint imposed by boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor. in particular it's ctor: boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor(boost::asio::io_service& io_, const endpoint_type&, bool); The end point is taken by const&. Is it just used, copied, or does the acceptor hold a const&? Are these sorts of issues documented? The only clue I can find is that the endpoint has a copy ctor. I can successfully construct the acceptor, passing in a temporary endpoint which is constructed in place in the acceptor's ctor, which appears to execute on both Win/MSVC8 and Mac/XCode3.2. But if I construct an endpoint further up the call stack passing it by const&, I get a runtime error. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Jeff

[Boost.Range] Filter adaptor
by Justin Leonard 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

I think I'm missing something obvious - but here goes. I'm trying to rewrite the a loop similar to the following using boost::range: [code] boost::range_iterator<Doubles>::type i = boost::begin(first_range); boost::range_iterator<Doubles>::type j = boost::begin(second_range); for( ; i != boost::end(first_range) && j != boost::end(second_range); ++i,++j) { if( f(*i) ) g(*j); } [/code] Is there something similar to: [code] for_each( filtered( second_range,first_range,f ) , g ); [/code] to use in place of the above? Thanks, Justin Leonard

break and return statement in lambda expression
by Conoscenza Silente 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

Hi All I created a lambda expression inside my std::for_each call. Inside it there is code like this one, but I have building error telling me that error: expected primary-expression before ‘break’ error: expected `]' before ‘break’ Do you know what it is and how to fix it? The same applies to return statement Thanks AFG namespace bl = boost::lambda; int a, b; bl::var_type< int >::type a_( bl::var( a ) ); bl::var_type< int >::type b_( bl::var( b ) ); std::for_each( v.begin(), v.end(), ( if_( a_ > _b_ ) [ std::cout << _1, break ] ));

[program option] accepting list of enumerated values ?
by John Dlugosz 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I want a program to take an option that is one or more values from a short list; i.e. an enumeration. For sake of a simple example, let's use color names: "red", "yellow", "blue", "green", etc. I'd like to validate that only legal strings are passed, and convert them to an enumerated type or integer. Certainly I can write po::value<std::vector<color_t> >, but what's the best way to process the input? The docs shows a brief example of overloading 'validate' but it's not clear. I'd also like a short way to specify multiple colors without repeating the option. Something like --color=red,blue but whatever the natural syntax is. Is a multi-value on one instance of a switch something that's built in?

[range] Boost.Range adaptor return types
by Jeremiah Willcock 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I would like to return an adapted Boost.Range from a function and would like to know what return type to put for the function. In my case, I am wrapping a counting_range with transformed(). Is there a metafunction to compute these return types? Should I just be using boost::result_of? The result_of expression is very long because of the nesting (though of course a typedef can help with the inner parts of that). Thank you for your help. -- Jeremiah Willcock

Synchronous read from a serial port with timeout?
by Gözde Bahar KOŞ 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Hello, Is there a way to use synchronous read function with a timeout mechanism? I want my code to block on read function till data/error comes from the serial port or timeout expires. How can I do this with asio? Best Regards, Gözde Bahar Koş ###################################################################### Dikkat: Bu elektronik posta mesaji kisisel ve ozeldir.

[bind] Possible to use variadic templates with bind?
by Steve Lorimer 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Hi Is it possible to pass variadic template arguments to bind, such that bind uses them as the placeholder arguments (_1, _2, _3 etc) I show my use case below. struct job_queue { // copy f into list for asynchronous envocation by another thread void enqueue(boost::function<void()> f); }; //----------------------------------------------------------------------- // helper class to define correct form of the member function callback template<class T, typename... Args> struct cb { typedef void (T::*type)(Args...); }; // a job defines a callback function which is any member function taking any number of arguments of any type template<class T, typename... Args> class job_t { boost::shared_ptr<job_queue> queue; boost::function<void(Args...)> arg_func; public: job_t(typename cb<T, Args...>::type cb, boost::shared_ptr<T> that, boost::shared_ptr<job_queue> q) : arg_func(boost::bind(cb, that, Args...)), queue(q) {} // normally would be _1, _2, _3, etc void post(Args&... args) { boost::function<void()> f = boost::bind(arg_func, args...); queue->enqueue(f); } };

Hi all, it seems that the buffer-boundary-matching expressions "\a", "\z" etc. are missing from xpressive.
