[BBv1->v2] Attention Library Authors

Please clear out your old BBv1 Jamfiles from HEAD. We found a problem where BBv2 was picking up an old Jamfile that was only designed to work with BBv1 (the name Jamfile.v2 is just a transitional measure, so BBv2 will find Jamfile if no Jamfile.v2 is present). Also, please peruse the list below. Lines beginning with +: only has Jamfile.v2 Lines beginning with -: only has Jamfile The lines beginning with - are of the most immediate concern - they indicate a directory where we may need to make the Jamfile compatible with BBv2. Thank you. --- /tmp/v1 2006-12-13 22:10:48.207153151 -0500 +++ /tmp/v2 2006-12-13 22:09:59.240048357 -0500 -./libs/algorithm/minmax/example +./doc -./libs/algorithm/string/example +./libs/algorithm/string/doc -./libs/asio/example/allocation -./libs/asio/example/buffers -./libs/asio/example/chat -./libs/asio/example/echo -./libs/asio/example/http/client -./libs/asio/example/http/server -./libs/asio/example/iostreams -./libs/asio/example/multicast -./libs/asio/example/serialization -./libs/asio/example/services -./libs/asio/example/ssl -./libs/asio/example/timeouts -./libs/asio/example/timers -./libs/asio/example/tutorial +./libs/concept_check/doc -./libs/config/tools -./libs/date_time/example +./libs/date_time/example/gregorian +./libs/date_time/example/posix_time -./libs/disjoint_sets +./libs/date_time/xmldoc -./libs/dynamic_bitset/example +./libs/foreach/doc -./libs/format -./libs/format/benchmark -./libs/format/example +./libs/function/doc +./libs/functional/hash/doc +./libs/fusion/doc +./libs/fusion/example/extension +./libs/fusion/example/performance +./libs/fusion/test -./libs/graph/build/python -./libs/graph/example -./libs/interprocess/example +./libs/interprocess/doc +./libs/interprocess/doc/code +./libs/interprocess/test -./libs/iterator/example +./libs/iterator/doc -./libs/lambda/test +./libs/lambda/doc +./libs/logic/doc +./libs/math/doc -./libs/mpl/example -./libs/mpl/test/aux_ +./libs/multi_index/example +./libs/multi_index/perf +./libs/multi_index/test +./libs/numeric/ublas/test/manual +./libs/parallel/build +./libs/parallel/doc +./libs/parallel/test +./libs/parameter/doc +./libs/program_options/doc +./libs/ptr_container/doc -./libs/python/doc +./libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc -./libs/regex/performance -./libs/regex/test/auto-link-test -./libs/serialization/example -./libs/signals/example +./libs/signals/doc -./libs/spirit/example -./libs/spirit/phoenix/example -./libs/spirit/phoenix/test +./libs/statechart +./libs/static_assert/doc +./libs/test -./libs/test/example/cla -./libs/test/example/cla/validation -./libs/test/example/env -./libs/test/example/env/validation -./libs/test/test/auto-link-test +./libs/thread/doc -./libs/thread/tutorial +./libs/tr1/doc -./libs/tuple/test +./libs/type_traits/doc +./libs/typeof/doc +./libs/variant/doc +./libs/wave/samples +./libs/xpressive/doc +./libs/xpressive/perf +./more +./more/getting_started +./more/whos_using +./tools +./tools/boostbook/doc +./tools/quickbook +./tools/quickbook/doc +./tools/quickbook/test +./tools/regression/test/test-boost-build/missing_dependencies +./tools/regression/test/test-boost-build/missing_dependencies/lib -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

GIL: Buffer overflow when reading tiffs
by Tilo Nitzsche 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

When reading RGBA tiffs, there is a buffer overflow happening in tiff_io.hpp. void apply(const View& view) { ... std::vector<pixel<typename View::channel_t, typename View::color_space_t::base>> row(view.width()); for (int y=0;y<view.height();++y) { io_error_if(TIFFReadScanline(_tp,&row.front(), y)!=1); std::copy(row.begin(),row.end(),view.row_begin(y)); } TIFFReadScanline() can return up to TIFFScanlineSize() bytes of data, in the case of RGBA images the scanline size is larger than the size of row resulting in a buffer overflow (it may happen in other cases as well). A quick fix for that would be to do a row.reserve(TIFFScanlineSize(_tp)); before the loop. \\ The RGBA images will come out corrupted anyway (since there is a mismatch in the number of channels), is there any plan for supporting them? Adding a new type to tiff_io.hpp like: template <> struct tiff_read_support_private<bits16,rgba_t> { BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(bool,is_supported=true); BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(int,bit_depth=16); BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(int,color_type=PHOTOMETRIC_RGB); }; will work fine for static image types. Of course, that won't do for dynamic types. -- Tilo ____________________________________________________________________________________ Any questions?

I am assuming one or the other is incorrect (perhaps > they both are) so which is it? and also, is there a proper way to do that > conversion that would work on both compilers. doing a specific conversion > operator boost::function<void(int)> does work on both, but not the template. > > Jeff This doesn't compile because function also defines an implicit conversion. template<class F> function(const F&); The call is ambiguous. The conversion to boost::function<void(int)> works because it is more specialized. I can't think of a way to do this offhand. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Boost.MPI is in CVS
by Douglas Gregor 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

The Boost.MPI library is now available in Boost CVS. We are still working on some aspects of the library, addressing review comments, updating documentation, and ramping up testing. However, at this time the library is usable and should be relatively stable. Cheers, Doug

Re: [boost] UTF8 library - second call for informal review
by Nemanja Trifunovic 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

Anthony, Thanks for your comments. 1) The typo. Thanks, I'll fix it. 2) Bidirectional iterator. Actually, random iterators are required, which I think makes sense for string containers as I explained to Hervé 3) For the iterators and codecvt, please see my reply to Rogier. Best, Nemanja Trifunovic ----- Original Message ---- From: Anthony Williams <anthony_w.geo(a)yahoo.com> To: boost(a)lists.boost.org Sent: Wednesday, December 6, 2006 6:22:41 AM Subject: Re: [boost] UTF8 library - second call for informal review Nemanja Trifunovic <nemanja_trifunovic(a)yahoo.com> writes: > This is the second call for the informal review of the UTF8 library.

Secondly, a real issue: validate_next currently requires bidirectional iterators, in order to backtrack on error. Forward iterators are sufficient for this --- just store a copy of the original, and copy it back if there's an error. This would increase the number of use cases of the library. I agree that a converting iterator would be beneficial, as would a codecvt facet, but this is a good start.

customizing boost::function
by Theodore Witkamp 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

Hi, I would like to get some feedback on some changes that I would like to make to boost::function for my own use only and I figured that this would be the best place for it. I basically want to detect if there is a NULL "this" bound to a member function. I want to do this so that i can prevent dereferencing a NULL pointer when calling a member function. I hope the following code example will clarify. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // example code: /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// struct X { void f() { assert(this != NULL); } }; my_smart_ptr<X> sp_x = new X(); my_weak_ptr<X> wp_x = sp_x; boost::function0<void> _f = bind(&X::f,wp_x); assert(!_f.empty()); sp_x.reset(); // wp_x == NULL if(!_f.empty()) { _f(); // This will fail } //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// I can't use exceptions because the code size would be too great on my embedded arm platform. Therefore I would like to have a member of boost::function that would tell me if i could call the function. I was thinking empty() but that may not be a good choice. I am just looking for a little guidance and also any general feedback. Thanks -- Theodore Witkamp CTO RiffWare LLC 107 S Holliston Ave Apt 308 Pasadena, CA 91106 Mb. 626-372-0931

conversion operator to boost function
by Jeffrey Williams 13 Dec '06

Hi all, The following code compiles on mingw (gcc 3.4.5) but not on VC++ 8.0 express, and I am asking if anyone could tell me which compiler is right. Here is simple test case: struct caster { template<class T> operator boost::function<T>() const; }; void func(boost::function<void(int)>) { } void foo() { func(caster()); } This compiles on mingw (it doesn't link obviously) but it won't even compile on VC++ 8.0 express. I am assuming one or the other is incorrect (perhaps they both are) so which is it? and also, is there a proper way to do that conversion that would work on both compilers. doing a specific conversion operator boost::function<void(int)> does work on both, but not the template.
