The alterantive might, but I am unsure of the syntax and how to use it - could you add any detail? At the moment, it seems like a robust option is to use macros, and simply redefine the function name to whatever I want - quick and simple, but not very templatey!! James

[shared_ptr] commit/rolback
by Denis G. Priyomov 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Wouldn't it be nice to extend shared_ptr to support transaction-like semantics? Or is it possible already? Sometimes it's needed to execute code on exit only until we haven't reached some point (of "no return"): { shared_ptr<void> cr_guard(static_cast<void*>(0), bind(rollback_fun, x, y)); [...some critical part which should call rollback_fun on failure only...] //don't call rollback_fun if we get here cr_guard.commit(); [...any code that follows...] } Thanks! Wish you well! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Denis G. Priyomov

You can use a boost::function<void (T &)> instance in your class to point to the correct member function you want to call. Alternatively, you may try to use member function pointer: template <typename T, void (Observer::*Notify)(T & )> class .... { } Just my 5 cents... Cheers, Freddie

Validating a URI according to RFC 3986 using boost::regex
by Jean-Sebastien Vachon 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hi All, I'm trying to use the regex library in order to validate a generic URI according to the regular expression specified in RFC 3986 - Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax. Here is the expression: ^(([^:/?#]+):)?(//([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)(\?([^#]*))?(#(.*))? As far as I know this is a POSIX compliant regex. I'm building my regex with the following flags: boost::regex::basic | boost::regex::icase Here is the complete code: bool RegExPOSIXValidator::IsValid(const std::string &oName) const { /* -------------------------------------------------------------------- */ /* Build the Regular Expression */ /* -------------------------------------------------------------------- */ boost::regex re(moRegex, boost::regex::basic | boost::regex::icase); return boost::regex_match(oName, re); } The function is returning false for the following URI: http://dimitrov@www.google.ca:88/index1.html?name=dimitrov#title Which seem valid to me. Unless there is something I don't see. I try doubling the \ in front of the ? at the end of the expression as a solution but it didn't help. Any idea?

serialization of shared_ptrs with non-default deleter and factory construction
by Mikko Vainio 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Dear Sirs, Does anyone have a working example of serialization of shared_ptrs with non-default deleter and factory construction as described in http://www.boost.org/libs/smart_ptr/sp_techniques.html#preventing_delete ? The code below (correctly) triggers error in boost/checked_delete.hpp because the destructor of class X is private. #include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp> #include <boost/archive/text_iarchive.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/export.hpp> #include <boost/serialization/shared_ptr.hpp> #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> class X { private: ~X(); class deleter; friend class deleter; class deleter { public: void operator()(X * p) { delete p; } }; friend class boost::serialization::access; template< typename Archive > void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version) { ar & some_data; } public: static boost::shared_ptr<X> create() { boost::shared_ptr<X> px(new X, X::deleter()); return px; } int some_data; }; inline std::ostream& operator<<( std::ostream& os, const X& x ) { return os << "x = " << x.some_data << std::endl; } using namespace std; int main ( int argc, char* argv[] ) { boost::shared_ptr<X> x = X::create(); x->some_data = 1; cout << *x; std::ofstream ofs("filename"); boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ofs); oa & x; ofs.close(); std::ifstream ifs("filename", std::ios::binary); boost::archive::text_iarchive ia(ifs); x->some_data = 3; cout << *x; ia & x; cout << *x; } I'm using boost 1.33.1 and gcc 4.0.1 on linux. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

[date-time] fatal error LNK1104
by chanekane 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hi, I am using boost version 1.33.1 and Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. I have made my own solution in VS to generate my library boost using only the classes I use in my project. Here all is fine. But when I compile my project. I have a Link error : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_date_time-vc80-mt-1_33_1.lib' I have defined this in user.hpp in my own solution but Nothing changes : #define BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK Thanks for your help.

Changing name of function being called in a template
by James Hughes 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hello all, I have a feeling this may be off the topic of Boost, so if anyone can point me in the direction of a better place to ask please do (a templates mailing list?). However, I post it here because I think Boost::Bind does something similar internally to what I want to do, so someone may be able to advise. I have a couple of templated class which implement a simple observer pattern (yes I know Boost has signals, but it's not thread safe). It uses a virtual function to make a call in to the observer from the subject. My own observer then derive from this class and implement the notify function. However, I would like to 'template' the name of the function, so that different instances of the template can make calls to different named function. Now in Boost:bind you specify the name of the function in the class to be called, but I don't know how to implement that in my own template class. class observer<typename T> { virtual void Notify(T&); // This is the function I want to rename according to the template } so I might want, in a different instance, the Notify function to be called, Shutdown(). Following code is NOT valid C++, but gives an idea of what I am trying to implement, but don't know enough yet to do so!! class observer<typename T, typename functionname> { virtual void <functionname>(T&) } Is there a way I can use templates to do this? Boost:bind can call a particular member function passed in as part of the template defn, how do I that? I hope that is vaguely clear... James

multitoken program_options
by Javier Gonzalez 10 Apr '06

10 Apr '06

Hi, I'm using the program_options library and wanted to have two multitoken options, but it seems the only multitoken option allowed has to be last one in the line. I want something like: ./my_program --files-a a* --files-b b* but when I declared the files-a option to be multitoken, then it treats '--files-b' like a value of the files-a option. Isn't there a way to do that? thanks Javier
