[gil][bind] How to bind gil::at_c ?
by Christian Henning 05 May '07

05 May '07

Hi there my compiler doesn't like binding the gil::at_c function. I'm using MSVC 7.1 SP1. Please correct if I'm wrong but I think you need to supply a function pointer cast for overloaded function when using this compiler. But for some reasons I cannot make it happen. template < typename CHANNEL > void set_zero( CHANNEL c ) { c = 0; } int main() { rgb8_image_t src; bmp_read_image( ".\\flower.bmp", src ); typedef channel_type<rgb8_pixel_t>::type return_t; add_reference<return_t>::type (*AA)( rgb8_pixel_t& ) = &gil::at_c<0>; for_each( view( src ).begin() , view( src ).end() , bind( &set_zero, bind( AA, _1 ))); return 0; } compiler error is: \gil\repos\gil_2\libs\gil\toolbox\test.cpp(74) : error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'overloaded-function' to 'boost::add_reference<T>::type (__cdecl *)(boost::gil::rgb8_pixel_t &)' with [ T=boost::gil::bits8 ] None of the functions with this name in scope match the target type Thanks ahead, Christian

Boost serialization w/gcc 3.2.3 on CentOS 4.4?
by matthew.garman＠gmail.com 04 May '07

04 May '07

We've got an in-house infrastructure that uses the boost::serialization library (from boost 1.33). Thus far, all our development has been done using gcc 3.4.5 and 3.4.6 on CentOS 4.3 and 4.4 (respectively). (Note that CentOS is practically the same as Red Hat Enterprise Linux.) Now we are forced to integrate with a 3rd party proprietary library that was built with gcc 3.2. So I installed the gcc32 package: % gcc32 --version gcc32 (GCC) 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-47.3) Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. If I build my program with gcc 3.2 and link against boost built with gcc 3.4, my program segfaults as soon as the first boot::serialization method is called. So I tried to rebuild boost using gcc 3.2. I did this by running the configure script, then modifying the "BJAM_CONFIG" variable of the top-level Makefile: BJAM_CONFIG= -sPYTHON_ROOT=/usr -sPYTHON_VERSION=2.3 \ -sGXX=g++32 -sGCC=gcc32 Then I ran make. First thing I noticed is that there were a *lot* of warnings, although the library did build. Same thing when building my own program: lots of warnings surrounding the boost stuff, but it does build. Also, when linking, I get this warning: /usr/bin/ld: warning: libstdc++.so.6, needed by /usr/local/lib/libboost_serialization-gcc.so, may conflict with libstdc++.so.5 Unfortunately, the program still crashes when it gets to the boost::serialization stuff. I looked at the Boost compatibility matrix, and as far as I can tell, gcc 3.2 is supported (though I definitely could have misread something!). So my hunch is that I've got a problem with my build process... but I'm not sure where. I know I've left out some details; please let me know what other info I need to provide. Suggestions or general "things to try" are welcome as well! Thanks, Matt

xml serialization : compilation fails
by Cyril 04 May '07

04 May '07

Hello all, I have a problem while attempting to serialize a simple object using xml (text works fine !). This is my code : // SomeData.h #include <boost/serialization/utility.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/base_object.hpp> class OBJECTS_API InternalData { public: InternalData(); virtual ~InternalData(); virtual int getInternals() const = 0; private: friend class boost::serialization::access; template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version) { } }; class OBJECTS_API RealData : public InternalData { public: RealData(int internals=0); int getInternals() const; private: int _internals; friend class boost::serialization::access; template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version) { ar & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_BASE_OBJECT_NVP(InternalData) & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(_internals); } }; class OBJECTS_API SomeData { public: SomeData(int internals=0); ~SomeData(); InternalData* getInternals() const; private: InternalData* _data; static InternalData* createData(int internals); friend class boost::serialization::access; template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version) { //ar.register_type(static_cast<RealData*>(0)); ar & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(_data); } }; ////////////////// // somewhere else const SomeData data(4); boost::archive::xml_oarchive xoa(archive); //archive is a file stream xoa << data; //////////////////// This fails to compile because : // basic_xml_oarchive.hpp // Anything not an attribute and not a name-value pair is an // error and should be trapped here. template<class T> void save_override(T & t, BOOST_PFTO int) { // If your program fails to compile here, its most likely due to // not specifying an nvp wrapper around the variable to // be serialized. BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(0 == sizeof(T)); } I can't see why my code isn't correct according to that constraint. Any help ? Thanks in advance.

spirit and gcc-3.3 and 64 bit
by Jörg Becker 04 May '07

04 May '07

Hi there, I have a problem compiling the following parser with gcc-3.3 in a 64 bit environment: the compiler consumes a lot of cpu time, but never returns. On my old 32 bit box I could compile a similar parser without problems. Also I can compile this parser with gcc-3.3 -m32. With gcc-4.1 I can build a 64 bit version but due to company restrictions I have to use the gcc-3.3. Thanks for any suggestions. Jörg ----------------------- parser definition my_parser.h ----------------------- #ifndef my_parser_h #define my_parser_h #include <boost/spirit/core.hpp> #include <boost/spirit/attribute.hpp> // closure struct my_closure : boost::spirit::closure< my_closure, bool > { member1 match; }; struct my_parser : public boost::spirit::grammar < my_parser, my_closure::context_t > { my_parser () {} template <typename ScannerT> struct definition { definition ( my_parser const& self ) { top = boost::spirit::str_p( "a" )[ self.match = phoenix::arg1 ]; } typedef boost::spirit::rule< ScannerT, my_closure::context_t > rule_t; boost::spirit::rule< ScannerT > top; boost::spirit::rule< ScannerT > const& start () const { return top; } }; }; #endif // my_parser_h ------------------ test program ------------------ #include "my_parser.h" int main () { my_parser parser; bool match = false; boost::spirit::parse_info<> info = parse( "a and b or c", parser[ phoenix::var( match ) = phoenix::arg1 ], boost::spirit::space_p ); if ( info.full ) { return match; } else { return -1; } }

It says that the class declaration may be placed in a separate header, but that doesn't mean BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID must be placed to that header too :) When you create a separate header for the class, usually you also create a separate .cpp for it. Place BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT there and everything will work fine. WBR, Pavlo Korzhyk ICQ#155870780

[fusion][bind] How to bind a fusion sequence?
by Christian Henning 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hi there, I have a problem ( compilation error ) using a fusion map with boost bind. Not sure if that is the intended usage. So, please show some mercy when I'm doing something totally stupid. Basically, I have a std::vector of a fusion::map instances. And I would like to find a fusion::map instance with a special value. Here is the code: #include <vector> #include <algorithm> #include <functional> #include <boost/bind.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/algorithm.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/sequence.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/iterator.hpp> using namespace std; using namespace boost; namespace fields { struct _id_; struct _name_; struct _birthday_; struct _address_id_; } typedef fusion::map< fusion::pair< fields::_id_ , string > , fusion::pair< fields::_name_ , string > , fusion::pair< fields::_birthday_ , string > , fusion::pair< fields::_address_id_, string > > table_type; int main() { table_type table; vector< table_type > vec; find_if( vec.begin() , vec.end() , bind( equal_to< string >() , bind( &fusion::at_key< fields::_id_ >, _1 ) , string( "Hallo" ))); return 0; } Does that makes sense? If yes, how would I do it? I'm using MSVC 7.1 and the first couple of compiler errors are: Compiling... test.cpp test.cpp(43) : error C2783: 'result_of::at_key<const Sequence,Key>::type boost::fusion::at_key(const Sequence &)' : could not deduce template argument for 'Sequence' c:\boost\boost\fusion\sequence\intrinsic\at_key.hpp(50) : see declaration of 'boost::fusion::at_key' test.cpp(43) : error C2783: 'lazy_disable_if<boost::is_const<Sequence>,boost::fusion::result_of::at_key<Sequence,Key>>::type boost::fusion::at_key(Sequence &)' : could not deduce template argument for 'Sequence' c:\boost\boost\fusion\sequence\intrinsic\at_key.hpp(43) : see declaration of 'boost::fusion::at_key' test.cpp(43) : error C2784: 'boost::_bi::bind_t<R,boost::_mfi::dm<R,T>,_bi::list_av_1<A1>::type> boost::bind(R T::* ,A1)' : could not deduce template argument for 'overloaded function type' from 'overloaded function type' c:\boost\boost\bind.hpp(1616) : see declaration of 'boost::bind' [snip] Thanks for your patients, Christian

For example if library A depends on > version 1.23 of library B and version 1.24 of library B was released, > library A won't become part of the next boost release. Here I don't understand. Suppose Boost release X contains library A version 1.4, and library B version 1.23, and library A depends on library B. The developer of library B then releases a new version (1.24), and the author of library A doesn't. The next Boost release (Y) comes along, and now library A is no longer part of the Boost release? That strikes me as a bad plan --- the contents of Boost will vary from release to release as developers update their libraries at different rates. As an alternative, how about this: if library A depends on version xyz of library B, then library B is pinned at version xyz for Boost releases until library A is updated. If library A is not updated for n consecutive Boost releases, library A is dropped from Boost as unmaintained. How about this, also: a library developer can only release their library if it is built against the latest released version of all its dependent libraries. That way if a core library is updated, all other libraries will have to use the new version before they can release.

[Serialisation] One last GUID question - I hope.
by Hughes, James 03 May '07

03 May '07

It appears that when I put BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID in class header files, sometimes I get a Multiple definition error for the instance of the guid_initializer, if the header file is included more than once in various bits of code. If the GUID is place in the cpp file there are no problems. I can see why this happens, but the docs appear to imply I should be able to put the definition in the header files, this paragraph below (http://www.boost.org/libs/serialization/doc/serialization.html#pointero perators) "The macro BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID associates a string literal with a class. In the above example we've used a string rendering of the class name. If a object of such an "exported" class is serialized through a pointer and is otherwise unregistered, the "export" string is included in the archive. When the archive is later read, the string literal is used to find the class which should be created by the serialization library. ****This permits each class to be in a separate header file along with its string identifier****. There is no need to maintain a separate "pre-registration" of derived classes that might be serialized. This method of registration is referred to as "key export". More information on this topic is found in the section Class Traits - Export Key." Is the document misleading here, or have I missed something??
