The above works (combo change of typename and ::template) so I've settled on using for brevity: typedef typename MIContainer::template index<agetag>::type AGE_INDEX; typedef typename AGE_INDEX::iterator AGE_ITER; thanks, Mark

[multi-index]/shared_ptr template issue - compiles on MSVC8 but not gcc
by Mark Schlegel 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

Hi, I'm using boost versions 1.33.1 and 1.34.1 with gcc 4.1.2 (Linux) and boost 1.33.1 with gcc 3.3.2 on solaris and MSVC8 I'm trying to use multi_index as a container indexed by two integers in a class called MapEntry. The two indices represent a unique key number "key" and a possibly non-unique timestamp "age". To make it generic I have the data in a shared_ptr<T> in the MapEntry class because I wanted to use the aged map functionality with many classes in the shared_ptr: // the tags struct keytag { }; struct agetag { }; template <typename T> struct MapEntry { .... stripped out all constructors and methods ... int key; int age; private: boost::shared_ptr<T> payload; }; and the multi_index_container setup as a wrapper class since C++ doesn't have typedef templates because I figured I needed that to get the "T" into the MapEntry<T> .... template<typename T> class AgedMap { typedef T map_type; public: typedef multi_index_container< MapEntry<T>, indexed_by< ordered_unique< tag<keytag>, BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_MEMBER(MapEntry<T>, int, key) >, ordered_non_unique< tag<agetag>, BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_MEMBER(MapEntry<T>, int, age) > > > AGEDMAPTYPE; }; and in main() I declare the container as: AgedMap<AH_ENTRY>::AGEDMAPTYPE am; and do insert, finds and erases into it. My problem is that it seems that if I use the T template to call my flush_by_age template function : template <typename T, typename MIContainer> void flush_by_age(MIContainer& mic, int timeout) { ..... which is called from main() as (note AH_ENTRY is a very simple struct with just a single int in it and cctor/ctor/dtor for testing) flush_by_age<AH_ENTRY, AHS_MAP>(am, AGELIMIT); and use that T to define what AGE_INDEX is inside it: // this hard coded one compiles and runs on all my platforms // but loses the whole point of genericness //typedef AgedMap<AH_ENTRY>::AGEDMAPTYPE::index<agetag>::type AGE_INDEX; // this AGE_INDEX does not on gcc but DOES compile on MSVC8 typedef AgedMap<T>::AGEDMAPTYPE::index<agetag>::type AGE_INDEX; I get a compiler error at the AGE_INDEX typedef in gcc 3.3.2 (solaris 10): aged_map.cc: In function `void flush_by_age(MIContainer&, int)': aged_map.cc:159: warning: `boost::multi_index::multi_index_container<Value1, IndexSpecifierList1, Allocator1>::index<agetag>::type' is implicitly a typename and a more verbose one on gcc 4.1.2 (Fedora 6 Linux): aged_map.cc: In function ÃÂ¢void flush_by_age(MIContainer&, int)ÃÂ¢: aged_map.cc:159: error: non-template 'index' used as template aged_map.cc:159: note: use ÃÂ¢boost::multi_index::multi_index_container<MapEntry<T>, boost::multi_index::indexed_by<boost::multi_index::ordered_unique< boost::multi_index::tag<keytag, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na>, boost::multi_index::member<MapEntry<T>, int, (& MapEntry<T>::key)>, mpl_::na>, boost::multi_index::ordered_non_unique< boost::multi_index::tag<agetag, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na>, boost::multi_index::member<MapEntry<T>, int, (& MapEntry<T>::age)>, mpl_::na>, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na, mpl_::na>, std::allocator<MapEntry<T> > >::template index' to indicate that it is a template aged_map.cc:159: error: too few template-parameter-lists But MSVC 8 compiles it fine and it runs. But if I hard code the class in my AGE_INDEX typedef to "<AH_ENTRY>" to replace the <T> in the flush_by_age() it compiles fine on ALL those compilers and they all run ok. I'm wanting to find out what I can possibly do because this would be a very useful class for since I currently have to put the aging information in another container where this let's me do it in one. I use unix and Windows and on Windows the compiler must be MSVC and on unix gcc. I tried making the typename explicit by adding "typename" using the hint from the solaris error but that didn't help. I'm guessing I've got some syntax typo like a missing & or const somewhere ? thanks, Mark

sp_counted_base.hpp and VxWorks
by Daniel P Furlani 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

The file sp_counted_base.hpp checks a bunch of macros to determine which architecture-specific include file to use. One of those checks is: #elif defined( __GNUC__ ) && ( defined( __powerpc__ ) || defined( __ppc__ ) ) I'm using VxWorks 6.5. Their version of gcc defines __ppc but not __ppc__. This is some of the output from "ccppc -dD -E emptyfile.cpp": #define __GNUC__ 3 #define _ARCH_PPC 1 #define __ppc 1 #define CPU_FAMILY PPC #define CPU PPC604 #define __vxworks 1 #define __VXWORKS__ 1 If the sp_counted_base.hpp check was written like this: #elif defined( __GNUC__ ) && ( defined( __powerpc__ ) || defined( __ppc__ ) || defined( __ppc ) ) Then I would see the correct file get included. Is this a change that should be made to the boost source or do you feel it is a problem with my compiler? Regards, -Dan

[Serialization] Getting link errors in gcc 4.1.2 with boost serialization library 1.3.4

[multi_index] composite_key question
by Jeffrey Holle 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

I've a multi_index container that has a composite_key index which is used to express a "checker board" like concept. I need to iterator over all rows, from 0 to n. I know how to employ equal_range(make_tuple(y)) to get the elements within a specific row, but how do I determine n? The only way I can think of doing this is doing a linear search using another index. Is there a better way?

You don't need to use static_pointer_cast<> or limit yourself to using base class shared_ptr<>s, as has been suggested. The solution is to pass by value instead of by reference. Then the compiler has a chance to perform an implicit conversion from one shared_ptr type to another. In other words, just remove the "&" from the signature of AddChild(). void AddChild(shPtrA child); The conversion won't occur when you pass by reference because shPtrB does not inherit from shPtrA.

[serialization] Error with bitfields under PathScale EKO compiler
by Bill Lear 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

I have a standard serialize method, working under various flavors of gcc and the Intel C++ compilers: struct ElementEnum { enum Origin { Standard, Base, Custom }; }; class Foo { ... ElementEnum::Origin origin : 4; template<...> void serialize(...) { ar & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(origin); } }; However, under the PathScale EKO compiler (pathCC), I get an error: "error: invalid initialization of reference of type Origin& from expression of type const unsigned char:4." Apparently make_nvp takes as its second argument a non-const reference. It appears that non-const references are illegal under this compiler, and, who knows, perhaps the latest C++ standard?? I was able to create a test case that caused this same error. However, the test case also failed under gcc and the Intel compiler, so the test case (appended below after my sig) is not narrow enough, apparently. If I rewrite the serialization method to not use the BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP macro at all, the code works. Any help on working around this (aside from tearing out BOOST_SERIALIAZATION_NVP() calls altogether) would be appreciated. Bill // test case to provoke the same error that I got compiling // serialization code under PathScale EKO compiler. #include <iostream> using namespace std; template <class T> void print(T& t) { cout << "t is now: " << t << endl; } struct Foo { int itsie : 4; }; int main() { Foo f; print(f.itsie); }
