Full-Text Search is LIVE!
by Vinnie Falco 10 Jul '23

10 Jul '23

Greetings. I am proud to announce that Mohammad’s excellent work on implementing a full-text search which looks into all the Boost libraries and their documentation is now complete, and has been published to the live website. You can access the search by pressing the Search button in the top right of the page: https://boost.org Please note that this is only the first iteration of this search tool and as such it will probably not give the perfect results that everyone expects every time. But now that we have something in place we can feedback, brainstorm on how to make it better, and iterate on it so that it evolves into something that consistently enhances the Boost user experience. To report problems or suggestions related to the search including the user interface, and the indexed contents, please open an issue in the Boost website repository: https://github.com/boostorg/website/issues There is also a “Report Issue” button in the search UI. Thanks!

[Boost.TypeErasure] - Issue compiling under Windows with Embarcadero C++ Builder 11.3
by Andy Bell 07 Jul '23

07 Jul '23

Hi I'm using the type erasure library but have an issue (which I can workaround) when compiling in Windows 10 using Embarcadero C++ Builder 11.3. My problem is that C++ Builder brings in the Windows SDK Windows.h include file in every Windows VCL UI project it creates *before* any of my code has compiled and it's causing conflicts in boost header member11.hpp. This code is enough to cause the error: #include <boost/type_erasure/any.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/any_cast.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/builtin.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/operators.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/member.hpp> #include <boost/type_erasure/free.hpp> #include <boost/mpl/vector.hpp> namespace mynamespace { BOOST_TYPE_ERASURE_MEMBER(ReadStatus) } The error is because Windows.h defines 'interface' but this code from member11.hpp also uses 'interface': template<class P, template<class ...> class interface, class Sig, class Concept, class Base, class ID> using choose_member_interface = typename ::boost::mpl::if_c< ::boost::is_reference<P>::value, typename ::boost::mpl::if_c< ::boost::type_erasure::detail::is_non_const_ref<P>::value, interface<Sig, Concept, Base, const ID>, Base >::type, interface<Sig, Concept, Base, ID> >::type; and the compiler complains of conflicts. Embarcadero support have told me that I can't prevent Windows.h being included in my project before my boost-using code is compiled and attempts I've made to circumvent the problem, such as adding these lines to codegear.hpp: #ifdef interface #undef interface #endif don't work because C++ Builder is still including Windows.h before my code is compiled. To get around the problem, I changed member11.hpp in my boost installation to template<class P, template<class ...> class interface_, class Sig, class Concept, class Base, class ID> using choose_member_interface = typename ::boost::mpl::if_c< ::boost::is_reference<P>::value, typename ::boost::mpl::if_c< ::boost::type_erasure::detail::is_non_const_ref<P>::value, interface_<Sig, Concept, Base, const ID>, Base >::type, interface_<Sig, Concept, Base, ID> >::type; which I don't think will have side effects as 'interface/interface_' here is self-contained, but it doesn't feel like a good long term solution. Embarcadero support said: "Boost brings windows.h in because boost pulls it, *IF* the application is compiled for multi-threading then boost needs to access the OS threading functions, this is when you compile *without* the VCL." and I have confirmed this by creating a simple, multi-threaded Windows console application in C++ Builder... My question is: Is there a better way to work around this issue? My tests indicate that the Type Erasure library is working properly with my change, but it feels more like a hack than a fix...

[asio] monitoring io_context load
by Dmitry 07 Jul '23

07 Jul '23

Hello, I would like to have a metric that measures time spent for work (executing completion handlers) vs time spent waiting for work in thread pool executing io_context::run(). It will help to estimate service capacity (i.e. how many more requests per second it can handle). It is similar to the system's CPU usage metric but CPU usage metric does not include waiting for mutex locks or sync io performed from completion handlers. In our performance tests io_context becomes overloaded (the queue grows faster than it's processed) when CPU usage is about 85%. I would like to have a metric that shows 100% in this case. There is BOOST_ASIO_CUSTOM_HANDLER_TRACKING macro that allows to intercept handler invocations and to measure execution time. But in the case of many lightweight handlers measuring time can bring significant overhead. I'm considering adding similar macros before and after waiting for the condition variable and epoll to measure wait time and then calculate execution time. I'm writing to ask if there is a better alternative? If not, would you be interested in a patch that adds "Handler Tracking" macros around wait calls? Thank you, Dmitry

[python][shared_ptr_from_python.hpp] looks like copy/paste or merge error
by Ran Regev 29 Jun '23

29 Jun '23

Hi, The code in construct() seems to surfer from copy/paste or merge error. It seems as though the following lines are duplicated in the else clause: void *const storage = ((converter::rvalue_from_python_storage<SP<T> >*)data)->storage.bytes; // Deal with the "None" case. if (data->convertible == source) new (storage) SP<T>(); Please take a look at: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_82_0/boost/python/converter/shared_ptr_fro… Ran.

[multiprecision] why 128 bit numbers isn't used in msvc?
by shar yashuv Giat 29 Jun '23

29 Jun '23

msvc added 128 bit numbers(in the header __msvc_int128.hpp). I know multiprecision uses __128 to improve performance so why doesn't it use msvc version? it's seems easy to change and will probably improve performance.

[boost::locale::generator] Calling boost::locale::generator results in an exception in EnterCriticalSection
by M L 24 May '23

24 May '23

Hello, calling boost::locale::generator results in an exception in EnterCriticalSection. Does anybody have a hint to the cause of this problem? Every small clue is welcome. What could be a possible workaround? What is usually the reason for an exception in EnterCriticalSection? Code snippet: boost::locale::generator generator; generator.add_messages_path("..."); generator.add_messages_domain(".."); std::string lngCode = "en"; std::locale = generator(lngCode + ".WINDOWS-1252"); // this line crashes -> 0x0000005 EnterCriticalSection Boost Version: (boost_1_60_0) Visual Studio 2013 Some more hints: - it seems that there is a problem reading the translation file, which works fine in other applications. - there are no threads in the code - the problem is project dependent. Same code works in a different project. - the problem only appears if a specific header is included, but nothing in this header is ever executed before the crash. Removing the header/cpp removes the problem. - some C code is present in the code - the problem even appears when moving the snipped in main. Thanks for help.
