[Boost.mpi] Installation with Intel compilers
by Federico Golfrè Andreasi 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Hi, I'm trying to build the boost.mpi 1.42.0 library with Intel compilers. I build the other libraries, so I believe it's just a matter of rightly configure everything. I've the bootstrap ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=intel-linux --with-libraries=mpi --prefix=/usr/local/boost-1.42.0-intelmpi I've added to the file project-config.jam the following row: using mpi : mpiicpc ; and then I run the bjam: ./bjam --with-mpi toolset=intel link=static --debug-configuration install but I receive this failure message ...patience... ...found 16685 targets... ...updating 21 targets... intel-linux.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/mpi/build/intel-linux/release/link-static/threading-multi/broadcast.o icpc: command line warning #10006: ignoring unknown option '-fenable-new-dtags' icpc: command line error: multiple sources not allowed with -o option "icpc" -c -xc++ -O3 -w1 -inline-level=2 -pthread $libdir --enable-new-dtags -Xlinker -rpath /opt/intel/mpi-rt/3.2.2 -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_MPI_SOURCE=1 -DNDEBUG -I"." -I"/opt/intel/impi/ 3.2.2.006/include" -c -o "bin.v2/libs/mpi/build/intel-linux/release/link-static/threading-multi/broadcast.o" "libs/mpi/src/broadcast.cpp" ...failed intel-linux.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/mpi/build/intel-linux/release/link-static/threading-multi/broadcast.o... [...] what's wrong with my configuration steps ? thank you. Federico

compiler error with Phoenix and zip_iterator
by Surya Kiran Gullapalli 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

The following piece of code works fine with MSVC 9.0 but fails with Gcc-4.4.2. Compiler throws lot of error messages due to the for_each call. I'm unable to figure out the exact problem ================== #include <vector> #include <string> #include <iostream> #include <sstream> using namespace std ; #include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix.hpp> namespace phx = boost::phoenix ; namespace pha = phx::arg_names ; #include <boost/iterator/zip_iterator.hpp> #include <boost/assign.hpp> using namespace boost::assign ; void updateOut (const boost::tuple<const string&, const int&>& p_tuple, vector<string>& p_out) { ostringstream os ; os << p_tuple.get<0>() << '-' << p_tuple.get<1>(); p_out += os.str() ; } int main (void) { vector<string> vs, out ; vector<int> vi, vi2 ; vs += "String", "String", "String", "String", "String"; vi += 1,2,3,4,5 ; vector<string>::const_iterator sbegIter = vs.begin(); vector<string>::const_iterator sendIter = vs.end(); vector<int>::const_iterator ibegIter = vi.begin(); vector<int>::const_iterator iendIter = vi.end(); std::for_each ( boost::make_zip_iterator(boost::make_tuple(sbegIter, ibegIter)), boost::make_zip_iterator(boost::make_tuple(sendIter, iendIter)), phx::bind (&updateOut, pha::arg1, phx::ref(out)) ) ; } ============ I'm using Boost-1.42.0 What is wrong with for_each call ? Thanks in advance, Surya

warning in boost concept
by oberhoff 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Hi, this is using boost 1.42, I think the same happens in 1.43 Using boost::accumulators generates a compiler warning in boost/concept_check.hpp:335. it seems the Arg member is a reference, but gcc doesnt like that there is no way to initialize it since it is private and the class does not have a constructor. this is particularly annoying since due to metaprogramming and the lag of variadic templates the instantiation trace in the error message for a single error is a few pages long, and it comes each time I instantiate an accumulator. is there a way to avoid this? Best Daniel

Re: [Boost-users] Possible bug: regex, lexical_cast
by John.X.Foster＠nab.com.au 12 Apr '10

Hi all Having done some further research, I suspect this is NOT a boost bug, but is a bug in the microsoft implementation of ostringstream (which I suspect is used for the string concatenation). Replacing ostringstream with boost::format has resulted in several bugs with the same general charateristics disappearing!

[math/distributions] calculating p-value?
by Christian Meesters 11 Apr '10

11 Apr '10

Hi, Having a test which values are chi^2-distributed, I tried to calculate a p-value and utterly failed. My code, so far: #include <boost/math/distributions/chi_squared.hpp> using boost::math::chi_squared; <snip> chi_squared dist(N - 1); p = cdf(complement(dist, (std::fabs(beta)))) ; Here, N is the sample size and beta my beta-estimate. Reading Numerical Recipies my approach might be a bit naive, yet is there any short hand using boost? (Or am I making a stupid mistake here? Which?) TIA Christian

[asio] What happens when socket receive buffer overflows?
by Matheus Araújo Aguiar 11 Apr '10

11 Apr '10

Hello List, I have a network application written with asio that uses TCP. The message exchange between client and server is done using a protocol that puts a prefix on each message indicating the number its bytes number. This way, at one side a prefix is read, and the number of bytes indicated in the prefix is read as a message, then it reads another prefix and so on. While testing the application I was having some errors related to reading a prefix that would indicate a strange number of bytes incoming, a number that was far greater than the max size possible of message in my protocol. After assuring that the bytes on the stream were not being merged, i started suspecting about socket buffer size. So i reduced the socket buffer size to 1K, and the application crashed with a lot less network load than before. At the moment, i am almost sure that the problem is the socket receive buffer which overflows and the bytes are discarded, creating a "gap" in the byte stream which causes an inconsistent state on the application. Does that make sense? What should happen when the socket receive buffer overflows? It silently discards the bytes or what? Thanx for your attention, -- Matheus Araújo Aguiar Computer Scientist matheus.pit(a)gmail.com

compiling boost::asio w/ SSL
by David Kaplan 11 Apr '10

11 Apr '10

It seems that i have compiled boost::asio without SSL or something but whatever I do I cannot seem to get my previously perfectly compiling app to compile again. I get a bunch of errors such as: ‘SSL’ has not been declared app line 121, external location: /usr/local/include/boost/asio/ssl/detail/openssl_operation.hpp ‘struct boost::asio::ssl::detail::openssl_stream_service::impl_struct’ has no member named ‘ext_bio’ app line 195, external location: /usr/local/include/boost/asio/ssl/detail/openssl_stream_service.hpp ‘ssl_bio_’ was not declared in this scope app line 168, external location: /usr/local/include/boost/asio/ssl/detail/openssl_operation.hpp ‘::SSL’ has not been declared app line 37, external location: /usr/local/include/boost/asio/ssl/detail/openssl_operation.hpp etc. etc. etc. Any ideas?

How to serialize basic_string<unsigned char>
by Martin Dietze 10 Apr '10

10 Apr '10

I want to serialize an existing (low level) class which uses a `std::basic_string<unsigned char>' as member variable. Compiling the code (boost/serialization/string.hpp is included) fails with this message: /usr/include/boost/serialization/access.hpp:109: error: ‘class std::basic_string<unsigned char, std::char_traits<unsigned char>, std::allocator<unsigned char> >’ has no member named ‘serialize’ As I understand, std::string is now treated as a simple data type, but std:basic_string<unsigned char> is not. Is there already existing support for such instanciations of std::basic_string? Any hint on what I can do to get this working?
