[boost.tr1] compilation errors with VC 2013
by Olaf Krzikalla 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Hi, I have encountered plenty of compilation errors with VC 2013 caused by including <boost/tr1/memory.hpp> or <boost/tr1/functional.hpp>. The errors happen with all versions tried (1.40, 1.53 and 1.55). Is boost.tr1 deprecated for newer compilers? Best Olaf

Compilation problem with has_binary_operator.hpp on Mac OSX

Hi, I'm building a framework project using Xcode 4.6 configured to use the Apple GCC 4.2 compiler (my project also uses wxWidgets, so this compiler is required). Using Boost 1.55.0 I get: cd /Users/tim/Developer/RBSpeech setenv LANG en_US.US-ASCII /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 -x objective-c++ -arch x86_64 -fmessage-length=0 -pipe -Wno-trigraphs -fpascal-strings -O0 -Wreturn-type -Wunused-variable -Wuninitialized -Wshorten-64-to-32 -DDEBUG=1 -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Develop er/SDKs/MacOSX10.8.sdk -fasm-blocks -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 -gdwarf-2 -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -iquote /Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidkwh bsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/RBSpeech-ge nerated-files.hmap -I/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/RBSpeech- own-target-headers.hmap -I/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/RBSpeech- all-target-headers.hmap -iquote /Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidkwh bsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/RBSpeech-pr oject-headers.hmap -I/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Products/Debug/include -I/users/tim/developer/libraries/wxwidgets/include -I/users/tim/developer/libraries/cryptopp -I/users/tim/developer/libraries/boost_1_55_0 -I/users/tim/developer/sources/surfacereader -I/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/DerivedSo urces/x86_64 -I/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/DerivedSo urces -F/Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidk whbsxvlwng/Build/Products/Debug -I/Users/tim/developer/libraries/wxwidgets/build-debug/lib/wx/include/osx_co coa-unicode-static-2.9 -I/Users/tim/developer/libraries/wxwidgets/include -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D__WXMAC__ -D__WXOSX__ -D__WXOSX_COCOA__ -include /Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidkwh bsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/PrecompiledHeaders/RBSpeech-Prefix-filshqejewqv wmcnuphmjzrmapcf/RBSpeech-Prefix.pch -c /Users/tim/Developer/RBSpeech/../Sources/SurfaceReader/RBSpeech.mm -o /Users/tim/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/RBSpeech-gglcnsigefizlfbidkwh bsxvlwng/Build/Intermediates/RBSpeech.build/Debug/RBSpeech.build/Objects-nor mal/x86_64/RBSpeech.o cc1objplus: warning: -Wuninitialized is not supported without -O In file included from /users/tim/developer/libraries/boost_1_55_0/boost/type_traits/has_left_shift .hpp:43, from /users/tim/developer/libraries/boost_1_55_0/boost/lexical_cast.hpp:165, from /Users/tim/Developer/RBSpeech/../Sources/SurfaceReader/RBStringFuncs.hpp:11, from /Users/tim/Developer/RBSpeech/../Sources/SurfaceReader/RBSpeech.h:27, from /Users/tim/Developer/RBSpeech/../Sources/SurfaceReader/RBSpeech.mm:4: /users/tim/developer/libraries/boost_1_55_0/boost/type_traits/detail/has_bin ary_operator.hpp:155: error: expected unqualified-id before 'do' The project uses OSX10.8 as its base SDK, but has OSX10.6 as its deployment target to provide backward compatibility and I made sure that my Boost libraries specified the 10.6 SDK as a minimum.

[property_tree] Compilation Problem when #including <boost/property_tree/json_parser.hpp>
by Adi Shavit 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Hi, On VS2010, the following code does not compile if I restore the commented out #include: *// #include <boost/property_tree/json_parser.hpp>* struct X { enum Labels { ERROR, ONE, TWO, THREE }; // problem => ^^^^^ }; void f() { X::Labels r = X::ERROR; // problem => ^^^^^ } The VS2010 errors are: t.cpp(5): error C2059: syntax error : 'constant' t.cpp(5): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '}' t.cpp(5): error C2238: unexpected token(s) preceding ';' t.cpp(7): error C2059: syntax error : '}' t.cpp(7): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '}' t.cpp(7): error C2059: syntax error : '}' t.cpp(11): error C2589: 'constant' : illegal token on right side of '::' t.cpp(11): error C2059: syntax error : '::' It seems that somewhere inside the #include hierarchy the symbol ERROR is #defined to cause this code to fail. Renaming ERROR to something else avoids this problem. I think I tracked it into ' boost/spirit/home/classic/iterator/impl/file_iterator.ipp' but I'm not sure where exactly it is coming from. Adi

unable to use find() function in boost::associative property maps.
by Aniket Pugaonkar 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Hi, The current boost::associative_property_map interface in boost::property_map does not provide a *find()* function interface from where we can find a key type from associative map. Although the associative property map concept was mainly developed for using boost::get and boost::put function efficiently on unique associative containers (such as std::map), it still does not have any interface for using find() function for searching whether an element exists in a map, My problem is explained below: I have a map, and I define a associative property map on it. as follows: std::map< int, int > *mymap*; boost::associative_property_map< std::map< int, int > > *my_asso_map* ( mymap ); I have a template function, named " exists_in " which checks whether a particular key_value, is present in the map or not. The function is as follows: *template* <typename map_t, typename key_t> bool *exists_in*(map_t map, key_t key) { return map.*find*(key) != map.end(); } ======================================== If I call this template function on mymap, it gives me no error: if( !exists_in ( mymap, key ) ----> no error Now, if I call template function on my_asso_map, it throws an error : if( !exists_in( my_asso_map, key ) ---->> error error: âclass boost::associative_property_map<std::map<int, int > >â has no member named âendâ error: âclass boost::associative_property_map<std::map<int, int > >â has no member named âfindâ I understand, my_asso_map just stores the address of mymap and provides get and put efficiently. But there are instances, where I have to *search* a key in my map. ( for example, if else loop as provided above ). I want to hide *mymap *and just expose *my_asso_map* to the user and everywhere I want to pass my_asso_map.. I am able to do this except for the *find*() function, because of which I had to keep passing my original *mymap *to the function/ functor and then use exists_in template function. Is there any way to implement a find() utility for associative property maps ? If find() interface can be added in library, that would be simply great ! Thanks, -- Thanks and regards, Aniket Pugaonkar

How to compile boost with non-standard clang installations.
by Bill White 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

I am trying to build boost using clang. I know there are many sources of advice for doing this, but I can't seem to find a description of my exact system, and my attempts to adapt them have not been notably successful. Here are my configuration constraints: 1.) Clang is not the system compiler. It is compiled in installed in separately, with prefix $a/clang. So, $a/clang/bin/clang++ is the C++ compiler, and so forth. I am using the tip of the llvm/clang tree. 2.) I want to use libc++, which is installed in $a/clang/lib/libc++.so. I also want to use the libc++ abi, which is installed in $a/clang/lib/libcxxabi.so. 3.) The libc++ standard library include files are installed in $a/include/c++/v1. For most programs I compile with the options -nostdinc++ -isystem $a/clang/include/c++/v1 -std=c++11 and link with -stdlib=libc++ -L$a/clang/lib -lcxxabi This seems to work pretty well for most circumstances. However, I can't figure out how to translate this to boost 1.55.0. I tried: ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=clang --prefix=$a/clang ./b2 toolset=clang \ cxxflags="-std=c++11 -nostdinc++ -isystem $a/clang/include/c++/v1 -stdlib=libc++" \ linkflags="-stdlib=c++ -L$a/clang/lib" \ --prefix=$a/clang -j10 define=BOOST_SYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED stage release However, the compilations failed. They all seemed to fail compiling type_traits. A typical failure is: clang-linux.compile.c++.without-pth bin.v2/libs/regex/build/clang-linux-3.0/release/threading-multi/icu.o In file included from libs/regex/build/../src/icu.cpp:20: In file included from ./boost/regex/config.hpp:43: In file included from ./boost/config.hpp:40: In file included from ./boost/config/select_stdlib_config.hpp:37: In file included from ./boost/config/no_tr1/utility.hpp:21: In file included from /local/billw/arch/glnxa64/clang/include/c++/v1/utility:157: In file included from /local/billw/arch/glnxa64/clang/include/c++/v1/__tuple:16: /local/billw/arch/glnxa64/clang/include/c++/v1/type_traits:3308:31: error: expected expression static const bool value = decltype(__test<_Tp>(nullptr))::value; ^ 1 error generated.

[property_tree] hex integer translator
by Steve Hartmann 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

I am using property_tree to parse some xml files provided by outside sources. Within those xml files, sometimes integers are represented as decimal, others are represented as hex. Below is an example line where a property named Index uses a hex representation. <Index>#x7000</Index> So I tried to read this as an integer, with the following source line, but that throws an exception since it does not now how to translate the hex format from the xml file. deviceList.second.get<int>("Index") So my question is: is there a translator already included in the property_tree <that I just cannot find>, or do I need to write my own translator to deal with hex integers. Thanks, Steven

[container.string] why isn't memcpy used in the internals?
by Adam Romanek 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Hi! Recently I've been trying to improve the performance of a code that makes heavy use of std::string (lots of constructions and destructions). My first thought was to use boost::container::string as it does not use reference-counting and uses small-string optimization, so it should be a perfect replacement for std::string when it comes to performance. Right... But the problem is that switching to boost::container::string only made things worse in the general case. I wrote "in the general case" because when strings to be held are small and SSO may be applied then boost::container::string outperforms std::string considerably. However, in the general case constructing boost::container::string from a C string is significantly slower than constructing std::string. My investigation showed that std::string uses memcpy to copy the C string into its buffer while boost::container::string does not. The memcpy comes from std::char_traits::copy so maybe boost::container::string could use it too? I guess the rest of operations from std::char_traits (find, move, assign etc.) could be utilized too as std::char_traits has been carefully crafted with performance in mind. Should I create a ticket for this issue? Best regards, Adam Romanek
