boost::thread and MinGW
by Russ 14 Feb '03

14 Feb '03

Hi, I was previously using the threading library with MinGW (latest release version) with no problems. Yesterday I came across a segfault that occurred when accessing a shared pointer so I updated the boost-cvs version I was using to see if it was a known problem that had been fixed; however when attempting to build the new version it appeared that threading had been disabled for MinGW? Is this the case or is it a problem with the way I'm building my code. Any help greatly appreciated, Russ

Yep, but there are hundreds of cases like this, which is why the feature would be useful. One could argue the same for the resource management of any type, right? ;-) Bjorn Karlsson

Some > non-examples: > "Someone might find it useful." "Wouldn't it be cool if...") In my project I have encountered the following situation: A lot of the code needs to handle (no pun intended) resources that are represented by indiscriminate types, such as void* or long. Different resources (and different functions for allocation/deallocation) use this handle type, so specialization is not an option. It's possible to use shared_ptr to handle lifetime management of the resource: HANDLE hPrinter=0; OpenPrinter(_T("Some printer"),&hPrinter,0); if (boost::shared_ptr<void> p(hPrinter,&ClosePrinter)) { } While this works, it doesn't convey the intent of the code (nor preserve it): the resource should typically not be shared, only scoped, and I believe that scoped_ptr<X,D> would be a perfect fit. There are other tools in Boost (outside too, of course) for solving this type of problem, but I think it would be more than cool for scoped_ptr to have this feature; I'd definitely use it in real code.

[BGL] Strange result with internal graph properties
by yg-boost-users＠m.gmane.org 13 Feb '03

13 Feb '03

I have the following code in one of my header files: struct vertex_type_t { typedef boost::vertex_property_tag kind; }; enum vtype { ROOT, INNER, LEAF }; typedef boost::property<vertex_type_t, enum vtype> vertex_type; typedef boost::property<boost::vertex_index_t, int, vertex_type> vertex_index; typedef boost::property<boost::vertex_name_t, std::string, vertex_type> vertex_property; typedef boost::adjacency_list<boost::vecS, boost::vecS, boost::directedS, vertex_property, edge_property> tree; Notice the error: The vertex properties are not chained together. Rather, the actual vertex property that is added to the graph points to vertex_type, and the vertex_index /also/ points to the vertex_type! Now the strange thing: I have been running this and using all of the vertex properties, including vertex_index, without any problems, but when I noticed this, and tried setting the last template parameter of vertex_property to vertex_index instead I get segmentation faults. I have no idea why this is. Björn

regex_match() Division By Zero
by Glover Barker 13 Feb '03

13 Feb '03

I am using boost::regex (1.29.0) under MSVC++ 6.0. Whenever I call regex_match(), I get: "Unhandled exception in filename.exe: 0xC0000094: Integer Divide by Zero." I have tried various ways to make the call (including the snippets posted on www.boost.org) Even this simple example fails: regex expression("abc"); cmatch what; if ( regex_match("xyz", what, expression) ) { // Whatever ... } Breakpoints reveal that after expression is set, the value of _expression_len is still 0. So when regex_match() is called, it in turn sends the value of expression.size() (which is just _expression_len) to re_detail::_priv_match_data(), which sends this value to estimate_max_state_count(). Then estimate_max_state_counts(), which calls this value "states", does the following: states *= states; // and later ... if(dist > (difference_type)(lim / states)) Since states is 0, this last expression causes division by 0, and the resulting exception. In case my environment matters, I am building my program under MSVC++ 6.0, running with boost_regex.dll. I am defining BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB and BOOST_REGEX_USE_CPP_LOCALE, and linking in boost_regex.lib. What am I doing wrong? Glover Barker

Compile problem with regex.hpp and VS6SP5

When I included regex.hpp into my project: #include <boost\regex.hpp> I received the following errors c:\cvsprojectsroot\renaissance\3rdpartyfiles\boostlibrary\boost\regex. hpp(860) : error C2899: typename cannot be used outside a template declaration c:\cvsprojectsroot\renaissance\3rdpartyfiles\boostlibrary\boost\regex. hpp(440) : error C2899: typename cannot be used outside a template declaration So at lines 440-2 template <class iterator, class Allocator = #if !(defined(BOOST_MSVC) && (BOOST_MSVC <= 1300)) BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR(typename re_detail::def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type) > I Tried the following: //This section was altered to handle the problem of the VS6 compiler not handling of a typename in a macro for a template parameter-DWW 02/06/2003 template<class iterator> class def_alloc_param_traits_fixclass { public: typedef typename re_detail::def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type def_alloc_param_traits_fix; }; template <class iterator, class Allocator = #if !(defined(BOOST_MSVC) && (BOOST_MSVC <= 1300)) //BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR(typename re_detail::def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type) > BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR (def_alloc_param_traits_fixclass<iterator>::def_alloc_param_traits_fix ) > //End of section altered to handle the problem of the VS6 compiler not handling of a typename in a macro for a template parameter-DWW 02/06/2003 And at lines 858-862 namespace re_detail{ template <class iterator, class Allocator = BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR (typename def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type) > class match_results_base { I tried: namespace re_detail{ //This section was altered to handle the problem of the VS6 compiler not handling of a typename in a macro for a template parameter-DWW 02/06/2003 template<class iterator> class def_alloc_fixclass { public: typedef typename def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type def_alloc_fix; }; //template <class iterator, class Allocator = BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR (typename def_alloc_param_traits<iterator>::type) > template <class iterator, class Allocator = BOOST_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR(def_alloc_fixclass<iterator>::def_alloc_fix) > //End of section altered to handle the problem of the VS6 compiler not handling of a typename in a macro for a template parameter-DWW 02/06/2003 class match_results_base { This compiled OK, has any one else had this problem and any comments on this fix or is there anything else that I missed so I do nto have to change the regex.hpp file? it appeared to me that the VS6 compile has a problem with a typename as a parameter in a macro that is in turn a template parameter. Thank you for any help.

boost::bind/function and C function pointers
by Thomas Pollinger 12 Feb '03

12 Feb '03

Apologies if this topic has already been discussed. I have looked around on various mailing lists, in addition I have tried to make it work with the current C++ STL standard with std::mem_fun and std::bind1st but with no success. The problem is basically to bind a member function pointer with an instance of its declaring class and to assign the result to an existing C library function that expects a C style function pointer. This certainly works for ordinary C functions and static C++ functions, however fails for bound member function pointers. Here is what I am trying to achieve: #include <boost/bind.hpp> // C function declared in some library struct E; extern void setCallBack(void (*callback_fct)(E*)); class A { public: void init(); void callBack(E *e); .... }; void A::init() {setCallBack(boost::bind(&A::callBack, this));} void A::callBack(E *e) {...} I tried also using the STL calls, but without success either: ... setCallBack(std::bind1st(std::mem_fun(&A::callBack), this)); I like the elegant approach of boost::bind and would like to use it for this case. The workaround would be to declare a static function and to store the instance somewhere to access the other members of the A instance - but I'd prefer the other way if there is a solution to make it work. BTW, I am using gcc v 3.2 on Linux/i386 - but I guess that this is a more general problem than a specific compiler issue. The error I've gotten is /opt/src/boost/boost/bind.hpp: In instantiation of `boost::_bi::result_traits<boost::_bi::unspecified, void (A::*)(E*)>': /opt/src/boost/boost/bind/bind_template.hpp:16: instantiated from `boost::_bi::bind_t<boost::_bi::unspecified, void (A::*)(E*), boost::_bi::list1<boost::_bi::value<A*> > >' controller.cpp:28: instantiated from here /opt/src/boost/boost/bind.hpp:59: `void (A::*)(E*)' is not a class, struct, or union type Chaning boost::bind(...) to boost::bind<void>(...) to explicitly delclare the return type yields: controller.cpp:28: cannot convert `boost::_bi::bind_t<void, void (A::*)(E*), boost::_bi::list1<boost::_bi::value<A*> > >' to `void (*)(E*)' for argument `1' to `void setCallBack(void (*)(E*))' which probably reveals the root of the problem, that of not being able to cast a boost function pointer type to a regular C function type. I tried applying some cast operators, but that failed already in the syntactical stage of the parser, e.g. static_cast<void (*)(E*)>. -Thomas

up-to-date documentation dor boost.python
by Pierre Barbier de Reuille 12 Feb '03

12 Feb '03

Hi ! I'm totally new with boost.python and I need to use some tool to wrap C++ code into python interpreter. The problem I have is that, apparently, the tutorial given with boost.python does not reflect the current implementation. Is there any way to have an up to date tutorial or an organized list of the modifications I can refer to when looking at the tutorial ? Thanks, -- Pierre Barbier de Reuille INRA - UMR Cirad/Inra/Cnrs/Univ.MontpellierII AMAP Botanique et Bio-informatique de l'Architecture des Plantes TA40/PSII, Boulevard de la Lironde 34398 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5, France tel : (33) 4 67 61 65 77 fax : (33) 4 67 61 56 68
