Hi, In the Jamfile help it says: --builddir=DIR Build in this location instead of building within the distribution tree. Recomended! Does this mean the build is not the same as the install, i.e. while building, files are being stored somewhere and removed after final installation? Thank you, H.

Boost.Function: How does the template param mechanism work?
by Brian Braatz 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

My question is, given: boost::function< int (char, long) > func(&f); how is it possible to pass the (char,long)? (I tried to receive this in a template as a single template param, or as three , but neither worked) I have been studying the headers, but the indirection used (FTSE :) ) is making it hard for me to figure this one out. The reason I am asking I is I am trying to clean up the syntax of some template params and I would like to use this technique. i.e. I would like to write: struct A {}; struct B {}; struct C {}; struct D {}; struct E {}; struct F {}; typedef MyThingdef< (A,B), (C,D), (E,F) > splat; instead of typedef MyThingdef< A,B, C,D, E,F > splat; Any direction on things to research or dig into appreciated. Thanks Brian

Serialization truncation?: xml_oarchive, ostringstream vs. ofstream
by Benjamin.Sternlieb＠ubs.com 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hi, I was trying out boost serialization and ran into a snag. If I serialize the same object onto two xml_oarchives, one constructed with a ostringstream and one constructed with an ofstream, I get differing results - the file based xml is well formed, but the string based xml is missing its final closing tag. Here is the generating code snippet: // now serialize ostringstream os; boost::archive::xml_oarchive ar(os); ofstream ofs("/home/sternlbe/boo.xml"); boost::archive::xml_oarchive ar2(ofs); Portfolio& port = *p; ar << BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(port); ar2 << BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(port); string s = os.str(); LOG_DEBUG(logger) << "Xml string: \n" << s; For the file output, I get the (correct) result: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization> <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="3"> <port class_id="0" tracking_level="1" version="0" object_id="_0"> <m_id>2124433</m_id> <m_name>This is a stub!</m_name> <m_isLoaded>0</m_isLoaded> </port> </boost_serialization> However, the string result is missing the final line (closing tag): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization> <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="3"> <port class_id="0" tracking_level="1" version="0" object_id="_0"> <m_id>2124433</m_id> <m_name>This is a stub!</m_name> <m_isLoaded>0</m_isLoaded> </port> Any thoughts?

boost log and vc 7
by Oliver Schoenborn 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hi, I am trying to create a dll for boost log v1.33(ie a dll containing code compiled from functions.cpp, log.cpp and log_manager.cpp) using VC++ 7.1 on WinXP. I get the same error whether I do it from VisualStudio or using bjam. The bjam file is : dll libboost_log : functions.cpp log.cpp log_manager.cpp : <include>c:/Boost/include/boost-1_32 <include>../../include ; and the vc-Link fails with the message that it "cannot open file 'boost_log-vc71-mt-gd-1_32.lib'". I have *no* idea where or how vc-Link comes to the conclusion that it needs that lib file. Any ideas? Thanks, Oliver p.s. The output from bjam session is: $ bjam ...patience... ...found 310 targets... ...updating 2 targets... vc-Link libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.dll libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.lib LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_log-vc71-mt-gd-1_32.lib' CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\bin\VCVARS32.BAT" >nul "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\bin\link" /nologo /INCREMENTAL:NO /DEBUG /DLL /subsystem:console /out:"libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.dll" /IMPLIB:"libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.lib" @"libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.CMD" ...failed vc-Link libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.dll libboost_log.dll\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi\libboost_log.lib... ...failed updating 2 targets... --------------------------------------------- Oliver Schoenborn Consultant, Modelling & Simulation Greenley & Associates Inc. 5 Corvus Court Ottawa, ON K2E 7Z4 Canada D: (613) 247-0342 x217 C: (613) 371-4773 F: (613) 225-4281 www.greenley.ca <http://www.greenley.ca/>

Re: [Boost-users] Reusing indexing base from multi_array_ref

I should be slightly more careful, version without accesses below: #include <boost/multi_array.hpp> int main() { typedef boost::multi_array<double, 2> array_type; typedef boost::multi_array_ref<double,2> array_type_ref; typedef array_type::index_range range; typedef boost::multi_array_types::extent_range extent_range; array_type A(boost::extents[extent_range(1,4)][extent_range(1,10)]); // [1,4),[1,10) A[3][9]=95; array_type::array_view<1>::type f = A[boost::indices[range()][9]]; assert(f[2]==A[3][9]); // Would like to have assert(f[3]==A[3][9]). f.reindex(1); assert(f[3]==A[3][9]); // Do I *have* to reindex in this way? } Thanks.

What if the indexing base gets more complicated? }
