random::mersenne_twister ctor and seed() methods
by klapshin 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hello All! I just started using boost/random project, and kind of confused with behavior of random::mersenne_twister constructor and seed method. The thing is that both of them have two flavors -- first accepting DataType, while second is template method accepting Generator. The problem is when I am trying innocent boost::mt19937 rng(999); //and/or rng.seed(999); wrong ctor/seed being invoked and I am getting far from crystal clear error message (term does not evaluate to a function). The problem is quite obvious: 999 is of type int, while DataType by default is unsigned long on my platform, so template version of ctor/seed picks this call, and it is failing since 999 is not a generator. So I have to write something like: boost::mt19937 rng(boost::mt19937::result_type(999)); which is kind of cumbersome. Why generator version of seed is not named differently? Say seed_gen? Don't know what to do with constructor though. PS: I am using boost_1_28_0, and MSVC 6.0. Best regards, Kirill Lapshin.

boost::lexical_cast string to string problem
by Jason Fischl 21 May '02

21 May '02

I'm seeing a problem with lexical_cast. The following code when trying to convert from string to string fails when passed an empty string. The library code that is doing this lexical_cast does not and can not know that the input and output types are the same. I believe that this code should not throw. #include <iostream> #include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp> main() { std::string input(""); try { boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(input); } catch (boost::bad_lexical_cast& e) { std::cout << "Failed" << std::endl; } }

BLL trouble
by Persson Jonas 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hello, I've just started playing around with BLL and i have some troubles using it with containers of shared_ptr. I have isolated the problem to: void lambdaTest() { using namespace boost::lambda; boost::shared_ptr<int> x(new int(5)); (*_1)(x); } This does not compile with gcc 3.1 on cygwin. If I use plain pointers it works as expected but not for shared_ptr. What am I doing wrong? / Jonas ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ../../cygwin/usr/local/include/g++-v3/bits/stl_iterator_base_types.h: In instantiation

RE: [Boost-Users] Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index
by Siegel, Matthew 20 May '02

20 May '02

Hi Jeremy, Thanks for the quick response. As you may or may not recall from last week, I am having the issue with MSVC++, where I can not put more than one property per edge or vertex when defining the graph, that limits the size of the template expansion. Because of this, I have to use external property maps that I create myself. Therefore I need an edge index map internal to the graph. Currently my workaround is to keep an unsigned integer in my class, that gets incremented until there's a free "slot" for the edge to go into. This is to allow the increment of the unsigned int to roll at maximum value. Here's the way I think it should work. I understand the space issues that most people would be concerned about, however if a property_map of edge_index_t is explicitly given in the list of edge properties when the graph is defined, then the map should be created automatically for me, and if an index is not provided on the add_edge() function, the index is incremented in the same fashion. If I'm explicitly adding the edge_index map to my graph, then the space is of no concern to me. Just a thought . . .thanks again, Matt -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Siek [mailto:jsiek@cs.indiana.edu] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 12:01 PM To: 'Boost-Users(a)yahoogroups.com' Subject: Re: [Boost-Users] Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index Hi Matt, On Mon, 20 May 2002, Siegel, Matthew wrote: > Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The reason edge_index is not provided automatically is because it takes up space (whereas the vertex_index is does not), and some users are concerned about space issues. Anyways, one possible solution is to somehow make it possible for you to specify some code to be executed when an edge is added or removed from the graph, and this code would adjust the edge indices, and perhaps the external storage too. But before I get ahead of myself, could you describe how you currently work around this problem, and perhaps how you'd like to see it work?

Graphs: vertex_index vs. edge_index
by Siegel, Matthew 20 May '02

20 May '02

Hi, Please correct me if I'm wrong. It seems as if a vertex_index gets assigned to a vertex as it's added to the graph automatically. However, this doesn't seem to be the case for the edge_index. Is this correct?? I forsee the following problem. With the graph implemented using a std::vector for both the vertex list and the edge list, if a vertex is removed from the graph the index is corrected for the vertex_descriptor to the new, appropriate index. However, if an edge is removed, the index for the edge_descriptor will not be corrected with the removal of an element in the vector. Also, this causes headaches when using an external property map. The edge index is linked directly to a location in my map. Any solutions for these problems?? Thanks, Matt

BLL for other compilers than GCC and Kai C++
by tslettebo1 19 May '02

19 May '02

Hi all. Have anybody got the Boost Lambda Library to work on other compilers than GCC and Kai C++ (which are mentioned in the documentation)? I have Intel C++ 6.0, which is quite standards compliant, but I get a zillion error messages, just by trying to compile boost/libs/lambda/test/bind_tests_simple.hpp. Trying it with MSVC 6.0 gives an ICE, but that's hardly unexpected. :) Also, are there any plans, on ongoing work, to make it more portable? (I post here, rather than the Boost list, as it's about use of a library) Regards, Terje

Boost threads compile with Sun WS6U2?
by NYSSEN Peter (BMB) 18 May '02

18 May '02

Hi all, I'm working on a multithreaded application on Sun Solaris 8 with Sun Workshop 6 update 2 installed. Currently my application uses the pthreads library. I've been looking at the Boost.threads library and I would like to use this instead of pthreads. I see that the Sun WS compiler is not in the supported toolsets list and there is no appropriate jam file available. In the Compiler Status: solaris page I see that this compiler is being tested, but no refference to the threads lib. Can anybody point me in the right direction as how I should build this lib in my environment? Is it enough if I try to create a jam file? Has anybody already done this (preferably for release 1_28)? What is the reason this compiler is not in the supported toolsets list?

Graph: Multiple edge properties with MSVC
by Siegel, Matthew 18 May '02

18 May '02

Hi, First off . . . great graph library. I can not get Visual C++ 6 SP5 to compile when I try to put multiple properties on the edges. Seems like a problem with the 3rd parameter that a boost::property can take another boost::property. When the 2nd property is taken out of the edge property list, everything works fine. Thanks for the help! Matt Example: // Vertex property - name as a string typedef boost::property<boost::vertex_name_t, std::string> VertexProperties; // Edge property - name as string, weight as a double typedef boost::property< boost::edge_weight_t, double, boost::property< boost::edge_name_t, std::string> > EdgeProperties; // Graph definition typedef boost::adjacency_list< boost::vecS, // Store out-edges in a std::vector boost::vecS, // Store vertex set in a std::vector boost::directedS, // Graph is directed VertexProperties, // Vertex properties EdgeProperties> Graph; // Edge properties Produces the following compiler error: Compiling... routetable.cpp c:\dev\lib\stlport-4.5.3\stlport\stl\char_traits.h(138) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1794) Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++ Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information Error executing cl.exe. routing.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
