composing with boost::bind
by Pieter Op de Beeck 11 Jul '07

11 Jul '07

Hi, I would like to accomplish the following: "bind a functor to a reference and compose this with another functor". Ultimately I would like to use this composition with the reference embedded in it. If I write it like this: functor_type h = bind(f, bind(g, ref(b))); it works alright. However, in my situation the binding of g is done somewhere else in the program, so have: functor_type temp = bind(g, ref(b)); ... functor_type h = bind(f, temp); Sadly enough this does not appear to work. I don't have a reference to b in h(). I'm sure bind works the way it was intended. I'm more interested in whether you guys now how to achieve the effect I'm trying to achieve? Much appreciated, Pieter. Some additional context: using namespace boost; typedef function<bool ()> functor_type; struct f { bool operator()(bool b) { return !b; } }; struct g { bool operator()(bool b) { return b; } }; bool b; The effect I'm trying to achieve: b = true; b = h(); // produces !b, so b is now false b = h(); // produces !b, so b is now true (in the second case above this would produce false again because there appears to be no reference to b in h()) Pieter Op de Beeck www.visysglobal.com

Boost with threadpool
by Gopalan, Srinivasan (MLITS) 11 Jul '07

Hi all, I would like to know whether any version of boost uses threadpool. Also there is a separate threadpool package. I would like to know how to link this package with boost.

They say: step 1 run buil.bat step 2 set BOOST_ROOT and BOOST_BUILD_PATH. I've runed build.bat and I have set BOOST_ROOT and BOOST_BUILD_PATH. It's not the right thing to do. My question is (only for a programmer who has the response): What is the right thing to do (step 1,step 2, step3, step4, step5, step 6 and so on)?

Weird compile error on VS .NET 2003 with boost::property
by gast128 11 Jul '07

11 Jul '07

Dear all, we upgraded yesterday to boost 1.34 but now ran in a weird compile error on vstudio 2003 (sp1) when using boost properties (or indirect through use of graph) and an enumerate enlosed by a namespace. E.g.: namespace Bla { struct Dummy {}; enum Foo { eFoo }; } void Example3() { boost::property<int, Bla::Dummy> prop1; //ok boost::property<int, Bla::Foo> prop2; //error } It gives something like: error C2065: 'Foo' : undeclared identifier. It chokes on the line: template <class Tag, class T, class Base = no_property> struct property : public Base { ... #if BOOST_WORKAROUND (__GNUC__, < 3) property() { } #else property() : m_value() { } <---- #endif Anyone an idea? Wkr, me

Hi, I repeat: the version of Boost is not the solution of the problem message. What must I do now after the run of build.bat and the set of the two main variables?

the thread safe boost serialization library is thread safe?

intrusive_ptr and NULL value
by Pavel Syomin 10 Jul '07

10 Jul '07

Hi, guys! I found embarrassing difference between shared_ptr::operator*() and intrusive_ptr::operator*() behavior (even the same I can say about operator ->). At first, look on shared_ptr: reference operator* () const // never throws { BOOST_ASSERT(px != 0); return *px; } If shared_ptr object has NULL value and someone call operator*(), it will throws exception. But if we look on intrusive_ptr(): T & operator*() const { return *p_; } we can see, that pointer don't checks.... Is it an imperfection or a feature?

feature for multidimensional binary tree
by valentin julien 10 Jul '07

10 Jul '07

I have heard about your library from a friend and badly i haven't found some kind of template binary tree implementation... What i'm working on is a multi dimensional binary tree to make Quadtrees Octrees or more.... And I want to make genericity to put several types of object in the same Leaf of my tree... I think this idea sounds like a cool stuff ...Is there laready any structure in Boost that can be use like it ? Or What do you think of this feature? ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************
