reversible_ptr_container.hpp compilation issue
by Brian Neal 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hi - We used the ptr_container library under gcc and Linux. We are now porting our software to the Integrity OS and the Green Hills Multi C++ compiler. This compiler has the EDG front end. It cannot compile reversible_ptr_container.hpp. I had to change this: class reversible_ptr_container { private: BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( bool, allow_null = Config::allow_null ); typedef BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME Config::value_type Ty_; To this: class reversible_ptr_container { public: typedef BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME Config::value_type Ty_; private: BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( bool, allow_null = Config::allow_null ); The compiler complains that the typedef Ty_ is private, but it is used in the public part of the class where it should not be accessible. I believe, but am not completely sure, that technically the compiler is correct. We have noticed that this EDG front end is very picky (in a good way). Thank you.

Hello, Can I build Rel 33_1 for AMD64 and XP64 and Visual 2005, or does only Rel candidate 34 support this platform? I need program options, so I have to compile libs. I am not sure about the right toolset for 64 bit libs. Can somebody help me? thanks in advance, andreas

filter iostreams
by Aljaz 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hello I'm having difficulties understanding some concepts of iostream filters. What I want to do? I want to have a filter (filter/line.hpp) that will split input (file) to lines. I've looked at class example but I still dont know how to use it for input (source) file. When I put filter on source stream, what is the best way to read it? I noticed most of examples use std::getline which gets line by default, but I decided to go for boost iostreams line filter because I thought it would be faster than getline approach.. Is this wrong? If not, how should I read file using line filter stream to get best preformance? Thanks for help

[fusion][mpl] How to make a vector of a vector of types
by Christian Henning 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi there, subject probably sounds a bit strange but here is what I'm trying to accomplish. The problem description goes like this: using namespace boost; using namespace boost::fusion; struct A; struct B; struct C; int main() { typedef vector< A, B, C > types; // how to translates typed into the following?? typedef vector< std::vector<A>, std::vector<B>, std::vector<C> > vector_of_types; return 0; } I'm looking for a generic approach to do this. To me it seems like it should be possible by taking parts of the MPL lib, like mpl::push_back, and parts of the fusion lib, like fusion::for_each. Any ideas? Thanks ahead, Christian

[statechart] - problem with sc::transition<> -> invalid use of 'boost::statechart::detail::no_context::no_function [with Event = jm::ffcp::ev_init]' to form a pointer-to-member-func

Problem with fs::path initialization in windows
by Timo 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hello, I have a little problem with initialization of boost filesystem path. I'm working on Cygwin in Windows XP. The fs::initial_path() and fs::current_path() both work ok and show something like: C:\cygwin\boost But when I try to use a path of my own, say: fs::path full_path( "C:\\cygwin\\boost" ); I get thrown with an exception. Same deal with the rest of the combinations I can think of: C:/cygwin/boost c:/cygwin/boost. c/cygwin and /cygwin don't throw but the paths are not found. So how do initialize the fs::path with a Windows type of directory path? Timo

serialization gives memory leaks due to throwing constructors
by gast128 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Dear all, I ran into an exception thrown by the constructor. But there is no way to call 'delete_created_pointers' on the object since the object is never fully created (see below) Is there something to do about? void Foo() { std::vector<Bus> v(2); //from the examples std::stringstream sstr; //save try { _ASSERT(sstr.good()); boost::archive::xml_oarchive oa(sstr); oa << BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(v); } catch (boost::archive::archive_exception& re) { DBG_TRACEN(re.what()); } //load v.clear(); //sstr.seekg(0); sstr.seekg(1); //generate dileberate error boost::archive::xml_iarchive* p = NULL; try { _ASSERT(sstr.good()); boost::archive::xml_iarchive ia(sstr); p = &ia; ia >> BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(v); } catch (boost::archive::archive_exception& re) { DBG_TRACEN(re.what()); //won't work: p is always NULL if (p) { p->delete_created_pointers(); } } } This throwing c++ constructor stuff is btw the way to transport errors according to a lot of c++ gurus. But my persnonal opinion is that it sucks. Every created object must be guarded with exception safety. For large applications, this exception mecahnism is very tricky and sources for a lot unwanted application terminations or memory leaks. Wkr me

Compatible question with STLPORT
by yunxig 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Dear sir, When I include STLPORT in VS 2005 as follows: VC++ Directories -> Include files ->STLPORT-5.1.2\stlport This "Options" is set in the first line. However there's compiling errors: boost\include\boost-1_33_1\boost\config\auto_link.hpp(175) : fatal error C1189: #error : "Build options aren't compatible with pre-built libraries". When I delete STLPORT-5.1.2 from "Options", there's no compiling error. But why? Thanks.

help replace_all_regex and format_literal
by llwaeva＠21cn.com 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi there, I found that the behavior of replace_all_regex is weird while specifing format flag as format_literal. For example, I would like to replace %f and %g in a source with some text respectively. The code is string source = "#f = %f \r\n #g = %g \r\n"; string text1("<footi(a)tv.com>"); string text2("""name""<name(a)email.101.pi>"); replace_regex(source, boost::regex("%f"), text1, boost::regex_constants::format_literal); replace_regex(source, boost::regex("%g"), text2, boost::regex_constants::format_literal); The result is fine. However, I would like to use replace_all_regex instead. i.e. replace_all_regex( source, boost::regex("(%f|%g)"), string("(?1 loofon(a)56.com)(?2 ""name""<name(a)email.101.pi>"), boost::regex_constants::format_literal); However, because of format_literal, what I get is #f = (?1 loofon(a)56.com)(?2 "name"<name(a)email.101.pi>") #g = (?1 loofon(a)56.com)(?2 "name"<name(a)email.101.pi>") rather than #f = loofon(a)56.com #g = "name"<name(a)email.101.pi>" In my case, I need to handle a heap of patterns and using replace_all_regex is convenient. Any way to use both replace_all_regex and format_literal without going into the trouble mentioned above? Thanks in advance.

[Date_Time] and [Filesystem] - compile error when including headers in wrong order
by KLINIK Markus SDI2-G (AREVA NP GmbH) 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hello, including the header files "boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp" and "boost/filesystem/operations.hpp" in this order results in the following compile error: 'boost::equivalent' : use of class template requires template argument list Swapping lines 1 and 2 of the following sample code works. I'm using MSVC 7.0, M$ Windows XP and boost-1.33.1 <code> #include <boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp> // 1 // #include <boost/filesystem/operations.hpp> // 2 // int main(void) { return 0; } </code> Best Regards Markus
