First I ran into the %~dp0 issue, removed that, then the next thing is it can't find any files. I started using the boost cmake build process here: https://github.com/Orphis/boost-cmake This works perfectly once I specify a toolchain file to CMake for the android NDK. Note that this solution means boost builds with the rest of my targets, which isn't ideal, but at least boost builds properly... I really hate bjam/b2 with a passion. For as great as boost is as a library, it's completely out of left field that they deal with this garbage build system.

boost::asio::asyn_accept handler
by Christopher Pisz 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

I am looking at the example source at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/doc/html/boost_asio/tutorial/tutdaytim… It passes their own connection class to the accept handler as an argument: acceptor_.async_accept(new_connection->socket(), boost::bind(&tcp_server::handle_accept, this, new_connection, boost::asio::placeholders::error)); I tried to implement a class method that would do the same: void ServerSocketASIO::Listen(boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor & acceptor, std::function<void(ServerSocketASIO *, const boost::system::error_code &)> callback) { acceptor.async_accept(m_socket, callback); m_connectionState = LISTENING; } but when I compile, I get errors that say AcceptHandler type requirements not met If I implement it this way: void ServerSocketASIO::Listen(boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor & acceptor, std::function<void(const boost::system::error_code &)> callback) { acceptor.async_accept(m_socket, callback); m_connectionState = LISTENING; } It compiles, but I would need the actual connection to put into a collection of some kind, in order to keep track of connected clients. The documentation I found at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/AcceptHa… Only shows the accept callback with a boost::system::error_code argument. So, my question is, is the example source wrong? and How do I pass my own connection class to the callback? -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/boost-asio-asyn-accept-handler-tp4693107… Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[asio] Using ASIO to connect to https: using client certificate
by Jim Gallogly 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

I want to do a simple C++ web get, similar to what is done by this curl command. I must use boost 1.49 curl https://mysite.dev -k --cert C:\work\testCert.pem The server is requiring the client certificate. I started by using this example http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/doc/html/boost_asio/example/ssl/client… and I added modifications by adding calls to the context like ctx.set_verify_mode(boost::asio::ssl::verify_peer); ctx.set_options(boost::asio::ssl::context::default_workarounds); ctx.use_certificate_file("C:\\work\\testCert.pem", boost::asio::ssl::context_base::pem); ctx.use_private_key_file("C:\\work\\testKey.pem", boost::asio::ssl::context_base::pem); but I keep getting messages like Connect failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it Any help or direction would be very appreciated, Thanks, Jim

[crc] Current status of this library

Hi all, I have a compile error using the Boost 1.63.0 CRC library with the g++ v6.3 compiler with the following usage: #include <boost/crc.hpp> extern "C" { short crc12 (unsigned char const * data, int length); bool crc12_check (unsigned char const * data, int length); } // assumes CRC is last 16 bits of the data and is set to zero // caller should assign the returned CRC into the message in big endian byte order short crc12 (unsigned char const * data, int length) { return boost::augmented_crc<12, 0xc06> (data, length); } bool crc12_check (unsigned char const * data, int length) { return !boost::augmented_crc<12, 0xc06> (data, length); } The error I get with g++ v6.3 is: In file included from /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/config.hpp:61:0, from /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:12, from /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/lib/crc12.cpp:1: /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp: In instantiation of ‘const least boost::detail::mask_uint_t<12ul>::sig_bits’: /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:356:9: required from ‘const fast boost::detail::mask_uint_t<12ul>::sig_bits_fast’ /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:1075:16: required from ‘typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast boost::augmented_crc(const void*, std::size_t, typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast) [with long unsigned int Bits = 12ul; typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast TruncPoly = 3078u; typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast = short unsigned int; std::size_t = long unsigned int]’ /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:1092:41: required from ‘typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast boost::augmented_crc(const void*, std::size_t) [with long unsigned int Bits = 12ul; typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast TruncPoly = 3078u; typename boost::uint_t<Bits>::fast = short unsigned int; std::size_t = long unsigned int]’ /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/lib/crc12.cpp:14:57: required from here /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:350:69: warning: left shift of negative value [-Wshift-negative-value] BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( least, sig_bits = (~( ~(least( 0u )) << Bits )) ); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~ /home/bill/wsjtx-prefix/src/boost/boost/crc.hpp:350:69: error: left operand of shift expression ‘(-1 << 12ul)’ is negative [-fpermissive] I note that the develop branch of the CRC library has many changes since Boost 1.63.0 but none are in Boost 1.64.0-beta1. So far I have only tried the new library (devlop branch) with my code and it compiles ok but I need to test it further. Does anyone know why the latest CRC library is not in 1.64 and also does anyone know if the develop branch code is ok and usable by substitution into a 1.63 Boost? Regards Bill Somerville.

Which is strange because the NDK documentation says to use the minimum supported API you intend to use. Which is 15 for me. But just grepping the NDK source directories, I see that certain files/symbols are only defined starting at API 21. I think a lot of the C library headers are provided by the target API directory, and they change it with each version. I'll try 21 and see if I get different results, and hopefully it won't break when running on Android Ice Cream Sandwich (API 15)

Compare boost::system::error_category
by Christopher Pisz 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

The following comparison fails for an error whom outputs "asio.misc" for errorCode.category().name() and "end of file" for errorCode.message() If it claims to be in category asio.misc, then why does the if condition of (errorCode.category() == boost::asio::error::misc_category ) evaluate to false? Googling says that a boost::system::error_code can have the same value in more than one category, so I assume that in order to get the proper message and meaning we must compare boost::system::error_category as well as boost::system::error_code::value. How do we properly compare the category if this fails to work? Code in question: //-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- std::string ClientSocketASIO::ErrorCodeToString(const boost::system::error_code & errorCode) { std::ostringstream debugMsg; debugMsg << " Error Category: " << errorCode.category().name() << ". " << " Error Message: " << errorCode.message() << ". "; if( errorCode.category() == boost::asio::error::misc_category ) { switch (errorCode.value()) { case boost::asio::error::eof: debugMsg << ". Server has disconnected."; break; case boost::asio::error::connection_refused: debugMsg << ". Connection Refused"; break; default: debugMsg << ". Unknown Error."; break; } } else { debugMsg << ".

Compile error with low_bits_mask_t
by Michael Kaes 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

Hi, I discovered a compile issue when using boosts integer_mask. The following simple program compiles fine with clang but fails with gcc. #include <iostream> #include <boost/integer.hpp> #include <boost/integer/integer_mask.hpp> int main() { typedef boost::low_bits_mask_t<2> mask_type_t; std::cout << mask_type_t::sig_bits << std::endl; return 0; } I took both clang and gcc from the svn trunk and boost in version 1.63. I did not have the time yet to dig through the boost implementation but I could not find anything in the issue tracker. So is this a compiler error of gcc or is this a bug in boost. I was able to find a stackoverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40291949/boostinteger-mask-gcc-compiler-… And the answer sounds reasonable to me that this is a bug in boost. Can anyone confirm this? And why does clang accept this? Thanks, Michael

So I beat on this a bit more and I'm past the clang path issue (it was some %~dp0/clang38++.exe stuff the batch file was doing which didn't resolve the right base path) What are the actual include directories I need to use for clang? I think that's the difficulty I'm running into now... errors like: clang-linux.compile.c++.without-pth bin.v2\libs\atomic\build\clang-linux-android\release\link-static\target-os-android\threadapi-pthread\threading-multi\lockpool.o In file included from libs\atomic\src\lockpool.cpp:16: In file included from .\boost/config.hpp:57: In file included from .\boost/config/platform/linux.hpp:15: C:/android/ndk/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/include\cstdlib:108:9: error: no member named 'strtold' in the global namespace using ::strtold; ~~^ My config jam: import common ; import configure ; import build-system ; import generate ; import modules ; import option ; import os ; import package ; import path ; import project ; import regex ; import set ; import targets ; import feature ; import property ; local androidNDKRoot = C:/android/ndk ; # put the relevant path using clang : android : $(androidNDKRoot)/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/bin/clang++ : <compileflags>-std=c++14 <compileflags>-stdlib=libc++ <compileflags>--sysroot=$(androidNDKRoot)/platforms/android-15/arch-arm <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/android/support/include <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++abi/include <compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/include <compileflags>-fno-strict-aliasing <compileflags>-D__GLIBC__ <compileflags>-DANDROID <compileflags>-D__ANDROID__ <compileflags>-D_GLIBCXX__PTHREADS <compileflags>-D__arm__ <compileflags>-D_REENTRANT <compileflags>-O2 <compileflags>-DNDEBUG ; And I'm running this command: b2 ^ --user-config=clang-android.jam ^ target-os=android ^ toolset=clang-android ^ threadapi=pthread ^ link=static ^ runtime-link=shared ^ threading=multi ^ variant=release ^ --prefix=..\boost_android_arm ^ --builddir=./ ^ --without-python ^ -j1 ^ install
