Valgrind Supression Settings
by Jeffrey Walton 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

Hi All, Does anyone have supression specs for Boost? We're getting overwhelmed with Boost squawks, and we are concerned Boost noise is drowning out problems with our gear. A small sample is below. For the full run, there are about 12,000 lines, mostly relating to Boost.

[Review] Review results for Lockfree
by Hartmut Kaiser 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

All, The review for the Lockfree library written by Tim Blechman started July 18th 2011 and ended on July 28th. I counted 8 votes, none of which were NO. All authors votes YES, some made additional requests. Overall, the verdict of the community was clear: Tim Blechmann's Lockfree library is ACCEPTED The discussion was lively and it touched on several points. Design ------ The design of the library is sound, the API is usable. Except for naming issues (discussed below) almost no comments have been made on how to change it. People reviewing the library would like to see a more modular approach to lockfree data structures in general, possibly by exposing building blocks or by utilizing policies. The general interest was to have a more diverse set of data structures available, such as a lock-free linked list or bounded and fixed-sized data structures. Atomics Library --------------- As the initial review announcement stated, Lockfree depends on an external Atomics library, which has to be separately reviewed in order to get into Boost as a first class library. There has been some discussions whether Lockfree could be accepted without Atomics being reviewed. Others suggested Lockfree may be reviewed and added to Boost SVN only after Atomics got reviewed (this was mentioned in the review announcement as well). After all those discussions and based on the wide interest Lockfree data structures have, I'd suggest to add the current Atomics library as an implementation detail to Lockfree. Special handling of compilers which already have implemented std::atomics has to be added to Lockfree, though. In this case Lockfree should use the atomics from the stdandard library. Naming ------ The consensus was that the naming of the reviewed data structures has to be changed. The names should be either fifo and lifo or queue and stack. AFAIK, Tim already addresses this point. Documentation ------------- The consensus of almost everybody referring to the documentation was that it needs more work. Here is a short (but non-exhaustive) list of things being mentioned: - It lacks rationale and information about the implementation - The class synopsis of the data structures should be accessible from the "Reference" page. - Make non-thread-safe parts more explicit (fifo::empty is described as non-thread-safe) - Document exception guarantees - More information needed on internals, the design, and rationale I would like to thank all who participated in the discussions.

Custom services using boost::asio
by Allan Nielsen 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

Hi I would like to migrate an application from using Glib::Source (glibmm event loop) to use io_service instead. The application is using glib::sources for two job: - Drive lots of network IO connection - Process internal event which are generated in side the application it self. The Io part is easy to fit into asio, but I'm having problems seeing what the best way is to implement the core application event processing. Using glib::source I could register an interface where two function is called: bool prepare (int &timeout); bool dispatch (sigc::slot_base *slot); Prepare could set a time out identifying how much time should elapse before dispatch is ready to process an event. When the time is passed, the glib main loop will call the dispatch function, where I then can process the internal events. How can this be implemented in boost::asio io_service? I have look at the section 7.5 in http://en.highscore.de/cpp/boost/asio.htmlbut he is using a thread and a blocking call. Using a thread is not a solution in my case. I would rather like either polling, or some kind of scheduling... I any body has some hints, examples, advices it would be most appreciated. -- Allan W. Nielsen

[fusion]Is it possible to wrap a function template into a function object?
by someguy 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

If there is a function template: template<typename T> T f(T t); then f is not a type and cannot be passed to fusion::for_each() as the second argument. But I can't write fusion::for_each(someSequence,&f<SomeType>) either since elements of someSequence has different types. While I can write f as a functor fo struct fo{ template<typename T> T operator()(T t); }; and call fusion::for_each(someSequence,fo()), sometimes I need to use function templates in libraries ( say, I have a fusion::vector whose elements are ranges ) and the only solution seems to be writing a lot of functors to wrap the function templates. I tried to find a wrapper class template that can wrap arbitary function templates to functors in boost but I didn't find any. Then I tried to write such a wrapper using constructs like template<template<typename T0> class F>struct temp_fun_1; but the code made my MSVC2008 compiler crash(really!). Is there such a wrapper in boost or any other library, or is it even possible? -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/fusion-Is-it-possible-to-wrap-a-function… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Containers Review Result] Boost.Containers is accepted into Boost.
by John Maddock 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

This is to announce that the Containers library by Ion Gaztanaga has been accepted into Boost. There were 11 positive reviews and one negative, many making the same points (see summary below). Acceptance is therefore conditional on Ion improving the documentation as the reviewers requested. Review comments summary: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Needs a better introduction/overview/tutorial in the docs: # what are stateful allocators, what's currently supported in this area, how is it supported, does it have performance implications. # Needs overview of the new containers - stable_vector, flat_* etc. # Needs description of recursive containers and why this library supports them but not C++03 containers. # Needs to justify why this library and not the std one (probably by mention of the above). * Make clear in the docs (if not already) what the default allocator is. * Make allocator template parameter name consistent. * Add basic_string::shrink_to_fit member function (from C++11). * Typo in range insertion docs (first/last vs i/j) * vector<bool> behavior needs to be documented (and justified either which way). * Need to document conformance to C++0x container requirements, plus use (or not) of new C++0x features such as std::allocator_traits. * Missing documentation for some deque member functions. * Missing Returns/Effects,Complexity or Throws. (ex: after No.23 in basic_string) * The "Acknowledgements" page is currently empty. There are various (c) notices in the source referring to sources from which parts of the code may have come. This page should clarify these sources, including any cases where the original code has now all been replaced, and assert that the licenses are all in order. It should also point out the history of the code in Boost, i.e. that parts were previously in Boost.Interprocess, so that anyone with previous exposure to the Interprocess containers is not confused. * There are some comments that the organisation of the docs makes it unnecessarily hard to jump directly to the info you want. Requests for additional features: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Consider implementing std::forward_list from C++0x. * Consider Boost.Range interoperability and/or range insert support. * Make the flat_* containers container adapters - so that a) the user can choose the underlying implementation and b) they can shoot themselves in the foot if they want to by manipulating the underlying container (mostly for efficient loading of data). Alternatively, provide some other interface enhancements to try to meet most of the use cases given. * Efficient construction of ordered containers from already sorted data. * Investigate Clang's Libc++ std lib performance tests. John Maddock Containers review manager. PS: Ion: if you need any help with quickbook/docbook and AutoIndex ping me and I'll see what I can do to help - there are all sorts of parameters that can be used to tweak the appearance etc.

Problems matching parantheses in a string using boost::regex 1.42.0 on a amd64 debian system
by Simon Hoerder 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 Hi, I'm fairly new to boost libraries but searched the documentation and googled for an answer to my problem but couldn't come up with something. Please bear with me. I am using boost::regex (version 1.42.0 on debian amd64 machine) to parse a vhdl-like file. To this end, I am trying to use the regular expression boost::regex("^SIGNAL ([A-Z0-9_]*?): STD_LOGIC_VECTOR$ ([0-9]*?) DOWNTO ([0-9]*?)$;$"); to match strings like: SIGNAL W07: STD_LOGIC_VECTOR( 255 DOWNTO 0); My problem is that matching those parantheses in the string doesn't work - - I've tested the regexp under perl and it works fine but boost::regexp and C++ works only if I remove the brackets from the string and from the regular expression. Issues I observed & tested: 1) '$' ... '$' no match but g++ complains about an unknown escape sequence '\)'. 1a) Using '$' ... ')' doesn't match. (I would have expected an exception to be thrown but none whatsoever.) 2) '0x28' ... '0x29' doesn't match. (0x28 = ASCII '(', 0x29 = ASCII ')') 3) '\Q(\E' ... '\Q)\E' no match but g++ complains about an unknown escape sequence '\Q'. 4) If I try to match only one of the brackets and remove the other from the string & regex I get one of the following: '\(' ... gives me: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::regex_error> >' what(): Found a closing ) with no corresponding openening parenthesis. The error occured while parsing the regular expression fragment: '?([0-9]*?)>>>HERE>>>);$'. ... '$' gives me: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::regex_error> >' what(): Unmatched marking parenthesis ( or $. The error occured while parsing the regular expression fragment: '[0-9]*?);$>>>HERE>>>'. 5) Even boost::regex("^SIGNAL W07: STD_LOGIC_VECTOR\( 255 DOWNTO 0$;$"); fails to match SIGNAL W07: STD_LOGIC_VECTOR( 255 DOWNTO 0); Points 1a and 4 suggests that boost::regex treats even escaped parantheses as special characters which is quite surprising to me. I am sure a lot of people successfully used boost::regex to match parantheses so I do wonder which part of the documentation I have missed. I'd be happy to provide more debugging information if you tell me how to produce it. Many thanks, Simon Hoerder - -- /*** * Dipl. Ing.

[iterator] [iterator_facade] Why is advance not defined for bidirectional iterators?
by Ovanes Markarian 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

Hello *! I defined a custom bidi-iterator and assumed it was going to support std::advance(iterator, Difference n), where n can be negative for random access and bidirectional iterators. The definition of my iterator's facade base looks like: struct my_iter : boost::iterator_facade < my_iter , const byte , boost::bidirectional_traversal_tag , const byte > { // some impl stuff follows... }; My tests show that calling: advance(instance_of_my_iter, N) works fine (increment implementation is called) advance(instance_of_my_iter, -N) does not work, because increment (instead of decrement) is called as well While reading through the docs for iterator facade at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_0/libs/iterator/doc/iterator_facade.html I found the section iterator_facade Core Operations. For the advance implementation is stated there that it is only gets called for Random Access Iterators. C++ Standard clearly defines that N-Parameter to std::advance can be negative to random access and bidi iterators. Implementing void advance member in my_iter still results in the call to increment member. Can someone give me any suggestions or is it a bug in the iterator lib? My compiler is gcc 4.3 under Debian Linux with Kernal 2.6.26. and Boost 1.42. With Kind Regards, Ovanes

[NEWBIE] [BGL] Compile error while using greedy graph coloring example v1.47.0
by Ragavendran Gopalakrishnan 21 Aug '11

21 Aug '11

Hello all, I'm a newbie to using Boost Graph Libraries for my project. I was reading the documentation, and tried implementing the greedy graph coloring algorithm that is presented in the following webpage: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/graph/doc/constructing_algorithms… I get compile errors involving the following lines of code: function_requires< IntegerConcept<ColorType> >(); function_requires< size_type, ReadablePropertyMapConcept<Order> >(); typedef typename same_type<OrderType, vertex_descriptor>::type req_same; I understand that the first two function_requires calls are concept checks, and I don't know what the use of the third line is, as req_same is never used. Anyway, if I comment these three lines, my program compiles fine, and works perfectly. I am unable to understand the errors and correct them. Here is my source code (coloring.cc) - the only change I made from the example algorithm is to pass color by reference, so that I can directly access the resulting coloring. 001. #include <iostream> 002. #include <map> 003. #include <limits> 004. #include <boost/concept_check.hpp> 005. #include <boost/graph/graph_traits.hpp> 006. #include <boost/graph/graph_concepts.hpp> 007. #include <boost/graph/adjacency_matrix.hpp> 008. #include <boost/property_map/property_map.hpp> 009. 010. using namespace boost; 011. 012. // Example coloring function provided in BGL online documentation at 013. // http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/graph/doc/constructing_algorithms… 014. template <class VertexListGraph, class Order, class Color> 015. typename graph_traits<VertexListGraph>::vertices_size_type 016. sequential_vertex_color_ting (const VertexListGraph& G, 017.

I did try digging into some of the header files, but I couldn't find out what the mistake is. Regards, Raga.

[Boost.Build] Problem with the Boost library support module
by Marcel 21 Aug '11

21 Aug '11

Hi, I have compiled Boost.Buildv2 from the Boost V1.47 sources and have successfully compiled the Boost libraries with it. Now I want to use BBv2 in my own project, which uses the Boost libraries. So I tried using the Boost library support module: I added to my user-config.jam: using boost : 1.47 : <include>C:/boost_1_47_0/boost <library>C:/boost_1_47_0/stage/lib ; and to my project's jamroot file: import boost ; boost.use-project 1.47 ; I installed BBv2 to C:/boost_1_47_0/bjam and added this to the PATH. Calling bjam gives me the following error message, because it can't find the support module (I assume): boost.jam: No such file or directory C:/boost_1_47_0/bjam/share/boost-build/build\toolset.jam:38: in toolset.using rule boost.init unknown in module toolset. C:/boost_1_47_0/bjam/share/boost-build/build\project.jam:888: in using C:\Users\zaphod\user-config.jam:3: in modules.load C:/boost_1_47_0/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:257: in load-config C:/boost_1_47_0/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:399: in load-configuration-files C:/boost_1_47_0/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:555: in load C:\boost_1_47_0\bjam\share\boost-build\kernel\modules.jam:283: in import C:\boost_1_47_0\bjam\share\boost-build\kernel\bootstrap.jam:142: in boost-build C:\boost_1_47_0\bjam\share\boost-build\boost-build.jam:8: in module scope I located boost.jam in the source tree of bbv2 of the boost libraries in the directory contrib. This is on Windows 7 x64 with mingw(32) as compiler. What is wrong here? Can I help bjam finding the boost.jam file? Many thanks in advance, Marcel
