hello, actually i am using boost 1.48 on vs2010 and the following code does not compile on boost #include<boost/bind.hpp> #include<boost/function.hpp> using namespace boost; class A { public: void evaluate(function<VectorClass(VectorClass,double)> f) }; class B { A a; public; VectorClass f(VectorClass,double); void test() { a.evaluate(bind(f,this,_1,_2)); } }; Any help?

[Atomic] [Tread] Proposal for Synchronized<T>
by Gabriel Bizzotto 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

Hi ! I've created two simples classes that helped me avoid data races when sharing objects among threads. The idea is to declare objects that need for synchronization as Synchronized<T>, which holds a T and a mutex. To use the T, a Get function has to be called that returns a proxy, which holds a pointer to the T and a scoped lock on the mutex. The proxy defines operator-> and operator* to give access to the T. To have acces to the T, one has to create the proxy. As long as the proxy exists, the mutex associated with the T is locked, effectively preventing use by other threads. For more details and examples, I've already published the classes here http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/15632/force-locking-for-threa… I find the scheme general purpose enough to fit the Atomic lib, or perhaps Thread. Please manifest yourselves if there is any interest in such device. Thx. Gabriel ++++++[>+++[>++++>++++++<<-]<-]>>-.>---.-------..>++++[<++++>-]<+.

[Property Tree] special character in XML tag
by Gábor Márton 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

Hi, I have the following property tree, dumped in INFO format: CudbAppServiceId=1 { userLabel "" sqlAppSrvPlSchema identities-pl.sql CudbAppServiceId CudbAppServiceId=1 } When I dump it in XML format, I got the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <CudbAppServiceId=1> <userLabel/> <sqlAppSrvPlSchema>identities-pl.sql</sqlAppSrvPlSchema> <CudbAppServiceId>CudbAppServiceId=1</CudbAppServiceId> </CudbAppServiceId=1> This is not a valid XML, because we have a tag "CudbAppServiceId=1". Of course, any other xml parser like xmllint will fail to parse it, because of the equality sign in the tag. Is there any solution to this problem? Like somehow emitting = instead of the raw '=' inside the tag and in the text? Thanks, Gabor

[Lockfree] Interprocess Support
by Gábor Márton 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

Hi, In 1.53 documentation it is said: The boost.lockfree data structures have basic support for Boost.Interprocess. The only problem is the blocking emulation of lock-free atomics, which in the current implementation is not guaranteed to be interprocess-safe. What does that and interprocess-safety exactly mean? Is it possible to use an interprocess allocator (e.g. allocator<int, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager>) together with lockfree::queue? Or shall I expect unexpected behaviour? Thanks, Gabor

Thread safety in Boost msm
by Ukil, Soumya P 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hi, I am new to boost meta state library. I am building one app, where I have to use msm. My application has two threads, where they use same msm object as a shared resources. Now will the msm be thread safe if both threads call process_event on the same msm object? Any idea is welcome. Thanks, Soumya P. Ukil Morgan Stanley | ISG Technology Building #5.

[Boost.Coroutine] sample in docs
by Lukas Czaja 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hi, i would like to ask about sample in docs http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/libs/coroutine/doc/html/coroutine/intr… what if several threads run asio::io_service::run(), so is it safe to resume execution state in CompletionHandler in diffrent thread from when execution state was saved ? And what will happen if io_service completes before saving contex (look code below)? s_.async_read_some( boost::asio::buffer( buffer_ + pb_size, bf_size - pb_size), boost::bind( & coro_t::operator(), & coro_, _1, _2) ); // Q: what will happen if handler completes here, before contex switch ca_();

[Interprocess] managed_shared_memory between 32 & 64bit
by leunm 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

Hi, I am new to Boost and am looking for a way to pass xyz coordinates from a 32-bit application to a 64-bit one. I see two recent posts on this same topic, but the explanation, as well as the Boost documentation (on offset_ptr) is a bit sparse. Below is a simple example I modified from the Boost documentations <http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/doc/html/interprocess/quick_guide.html…> , which works for either 32-bit or 64-bit but not when the parent is 32-bit and child is 64-bit, and vice versa. Can someone tell me what I need to do enable this function?

Behaviour of asio
by ustulation 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

By going through the doc. i understand that async completion handlers will be called whenever io_service::run() reads posted events from the queue for which the corresponding handlers were registered by us. Now if i have a registered handler for some event (say async_wait() of deadline_timer) which does something time consuming, then event loop (io_service::run()) does not get a chance to read the event queue until the handler returns thus preventing calls to other handlers for which events are queued. I've tested this behaviour with timers and it works as expected. However i could not understand the behaviour of async_read_from() of udp::socket. void A::read() { udpSoc.async_receive_from( boost::asio::buffer(m_cRxData, 1024), m_endpoint, boost::bind(&A::readHandler, this, _1, _2) ); } ////////////////////////////// <1> /////////////////////////// void A::readHandler(......) { std::string szDatagram(m_cRxData, bytesReceived); std::cerr << "Rxd Datagram: " << szDatagram << std::endl; read(); //............ } ////////////////////////////// <2> /////////////////////////// void A::readHandler(......) { read(); std::string szDatagram(m_cRxData, bytesReceived); std::cerr << "Rxd Datagram: " << szDatagram << std::endl; //............ } in above when 2 datagrams arrive simultaneously, readHandler <1> works fine but <2> does not. In <1> std::cerr write 1st and 2nd Datagrams distinctly, but in <2> data gets corrupted and std::cerr writes a string that would be formed if the 1st datagram in it were overwritten by the 2nd datagram (ie., if 1st one was 12345 and 2nd one xyz then <2> above prints "xyz45".) This means that clearly m_cRxData (which is a private member) is getting overwritten. Why does this happen? async_read_from should return immediately without reading into m_cRxData, readHandler(..) should continue and complete, and control should reach event loop, and then finally async read should be done calling the completion handler. Is this explanation wrong? -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Behaviour-of-asio-tp4642911.html Sent from the Boost - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Boost-users] Question about installing and using boost library.
by Giovanni 16 Feb '13

16 Feb '13

Greetings Pan, I am using Ubuntu 12.04 with one of my machines. I used the Ubuntu Software Center to install the Boost C++ Libraries, which makes things so much easier. You can enter "Boost" into the search box on the top-right corner, and find the Boost C++ Libraries to install. There are a number of them, including versions that conflict with each other. I chose the default version, and packages that don't conflict with that. I suggest that you install Boost C++ that way. After you have installed Boost C++ with Ubuntu Software Center, you should/"should" (it depends on how you set things up and if you have root access) see the following. The collection of header files for the Boost C++ Libraries in the location: /usr/lib. The collection of dynamic libraries (to be dynamically linked) for the Boost C++ Libraries in the location: /usr/include/boost. To test if you have installed the Boost C++ Libraries correctly, run a very simple C++ program that includes one of the Boost C++ Libraries and calls a function from that library. For example, you can try my attached toy program. To compile and run the program, try: g++ -o static2.out get_sys_info.cpp -lboost_filesystem -lboost_system ./static2.out As for your specific problem, I am guessing that it is a linking error that I also had. You need to include the Boost C++ Libraries at the end of the compilation command (for GCC/g++). Hence, I placed the filename (C++ source file) before including the libraries. I suggest that you post your compilation/linking commands, or makefile or script for build automation, so that people can help you. In addition, I would include the relevant source code (make it a simple C++ program, like my example) to test your Boost C++ installation. Furthermore, I would include the transcript from the Terminal. Just copy and paste what appears on the Terminal as you compile the program. Good luck, and have a great weekend!
