regex_match and temporaries
by Michael Lacher 07 Mar '07

07 Mar '07

Using valgrind I found an unexpected behavior in regex_match when using temporaries. Although the input parameters allow using temporaries for the string to search in (i was using the variant that takes const std::string&), actually accessing the matches using a boost::smatch will try to look up the data in the already destructed temporary. I could not find a note in the documentation that describes this limitation, I think some clarification would be good. regards, Michael

[Soc suggestions] TR1 implementation
by AlisdairM 07 Mar '07

07 Mar '07

How close are we to having a releasable Boost implementation of TR1? There are also a few interface changes for some Boost components to catch up with, most of which seem implemented in the HEAD already. I know we are missing the following libs: unordered containers special math functions C99 library I believe John Maddock and Paul Bristow have a library in the review queue that will go a long way towards providing the math functions, and there have been mutterings about unordered containers over the years, but not sure of their current state. Don't think we have anything in place for C99 though? There is the issue of packaging the distribution, where John Maddock has has some preliminary work. Is this a project we could imagine completing with a SoC student or two? -- AlisdairM

[boostbook] documenting protected/private members?
by Frank Mori Hess 06 Mar '07

Is there no way to document a class' protected members using boostbook? It seems to assume everything is going to be public. -- Frank

[1.34.0] Regressions state
by Vladimir Prus 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

This is the summary of regression results as I see it: 0. The regression framework seems OK. It's also more reliable now -- thanks to Aleksey, who made XSLT processing more strict, and fixed process_jam_log not to loose some output. 1. We have a number of regressions with intel-linux-9.0. They come from two runners -- Martin and Sandia. In Martin's result most failures are due to an command line option that intel-9.0 does not understand, and Martin's results were not updated since I've checked in the fix. Sandia's results are post fix, and I see no linker errors. There are some failures that look genuine. 2. We have a large number of regression with msvc-stlport configurations. Most are linker errors, which suggests misconfiguration or Boost.Build bug, or both. I'll work with Roland on a solution. 3. There are some fails that look genuine. I think the right way to get 1.34 released now, as far as regression tests are concerned is this: 1. Completely freeze the list of tested compilers. This means that anything not tested now is not tested. Notably, we'll have no coverage for mingw or cygwin versions of gcc. 2. Have me and Roland fix stlport issues. 3. Start pinging developers about remaining failures. I think we should adopt a policy that will guarantee that all failures be resolved in a reasonable time -- namely, if a failure is not fixed by a certain date, it's marked expected and we move on. That cut-off date might be two weeks from the next Monday -- Feb 26. Both (1) and (3) will certainly have an effect on release quality -- we'll mark some failures as expected instead of fixing them, and we won't see failures on some configuration. However, I believe having a release sooner is more important at this point. Thomas, I would like you to express your opinion on this plan. Opinions from other Boosters are also appreciated! - Volodya

[build][python] can't specify --with-python-root
by Kim Barrett 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Not sure whether this a boost.build problem, a boost.python problem, or simply a failure in my understanding. In boost 1.33.1 one could specify the location of the Python version to be used by Boost.Python using the --with-python-root option to bjam. This isn't working on the RC_1_34_0 branch. (I haven't looked at HEAD.) Looking at the boost root Jamfile.v2, it looks like this is still expected to work, in that there is code that looks for that option and sets some variables based on its value. However, it does not actually work because there is other code in that same file which examines all --with-XXX options to determine which optional libraries to add. So it treats python-root as a candidate for such a library. Unfortunately, it then determines that this isn't a recognized library name, and so errors out. So there seems to be at least some inconsistency here. Also, simply taking out the --with-python-root results in a warning that the Python location was not configured, and so the Boost.Python library won't be built. Is there some other mechanism that one can / is supposed to use to specify this particular bit of configuration information?

If you are not discussing >an existing Boost library, The post did discuss a Boost library. Slater said he was interested in finding ways to improve the performance of B.Ser. I wrote my ideas about that. Beyond that I was replying to some of the points he had made in his previous post. >nor discussing a possible Boost library >submission.

With the question about online code generation I want to understand what he is getting at and if there is a technical problem with the online approach that we haven't considered.

Any interest in dimensional analysis for orientational dimensions and Euclidean vectors?
by Andreas Harnack 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Further to the ongoing discussion of (physical) dimensional analysis and the physical dimension/unit library I'd like to propose a library providing two services: 1.Orientational analysis, i.e. compile time analysis for dimensions indicating a direction in space, also called mathematical dimensions (in contrast to physical dimensions). 2.Aggregation of values carrying orientational dimensions into a data structure suitable to represent the concept of vectors in the geometrical and algebraical sense. A major application of such a vector class will be Euclidean geometry, so for lack of a better name and to distinguish it from other concepts using the name vector I'd like to talk about Euclidean vectors. The library is not intended to be a linear algebra library. No algorithms are provided that go beyond scalar and cross product. A matrix class is included too, but restricted to diagonal matrices, since matrix inversion is involved and matrix inversion is trivial only for diagonal matrices. I'm going to uploaded a proposal into the boost vault under the name 'euclid'. It comes with test programs, examples and a documentation, discussing some issues of dimensional analyses in general, the current implementation of Euclidean vectors and possible ways of extending orientational analysis to a linear algebra library. The code presented here is real life code taken from a former application project. It has not been designed with a standalone library in mind. As such it's likely to have some deficiencies. However, it seems to be a useful concept, yet reasonably simple, and worth of sharing. If there's interest in the community , I'd take the effort to boost it up to the required standards. The library began as a template providing orientational analysis in an application project involving graphical programming in both, character cell graphic as well as pixel graphic. A major source of errors was the risk to mix up of x and y coordinates, especially since several libraries where involved with different interface conventions. Using orientational analysis reduced the error rate significantly. After having a system of type distinct coordinates and coordinate expressions that could be check at compile time, it soon became apparent that it would be helpful to aggregate coordinates into vectors. However, accepting coordinates as being type distinct has some fundamental implications on the design of a vector class: the vector can no longer be a container, since container aggregate equally typed objects. Neither access operators nor iterators can be defined in the traditional way, since type would change depending on the object returned or referenced. Consequently, vectors are better represented by structures rather than arrays. To allow for an arbitrary number of dimensions a recursive template structure has been defined. Component access is provided by explicit type conversion into the component type: namespace euclid { // dimension class template template<typename T, unsigned int D> class dim { T v; public: // operations allowed for dim ... }; // vector class template template<typename T, unsigned int D> class vec { dim<T, D-1> d; vec<T, D-1> v; public: // element access template <unsigned int I> operator dim<T,I>() const { return dim<T, I>(v); } operator dim<T,D-1>() const { return d; } // vector operations ... }; // vector class base case specialization template<typename T> class vec<T,1> { dim<T,0> d; public: // element access operator dim<T,0>() const { return d; } // vector operations ... }; }; The operations defined for vectors and dimensions are those typically defined for vector spaces including some (hopefully) reasonable access and conversion operations. Applications will typically start by specializing the templates to their specific needs, like: namespace myApplication { typedef int scalar; typedef euclid::dim<scalar,0> dimX; typedef euclid::dim<scalar,1> dimY; typedef euclid::vec<scalar,2> vect; // ... } or may be templated: template <class T> class myClass { public: typedef euclid::dim<T,0> dimX; typedef euclid::dim<T,1> dimY; typedef euclid::vec<T,2> vect; // ... } Now these types can be used almost like build-in types with the benefits of additional type checking void foo(vect v); void bar(dimX x); void bar(dimX x, dimY y); int main() { dimX x, x0, x1; dimY y; vect v; x = x0+x1; // OK y = x; // Error bar(x) // OK bar(2*x0+x1) // OK bar(x+y) // Error bar(x,y) // OK bar(x,x) // Error bar(y,y) // Error bar(y,x) // Error bar(v,v) // OK, calls bar(dimX(v), dimY(v)); foo(2*v) // OK // etc. } The library addresses a problem that occurs (at least) in any application or library involving graphical programming. It is, however, surprisingly simple in both, implementation and usage. To my knowledge, no graphical library has addressed orientational analysis yet, while vectors are typically implemented by some library specific data structures, requiring unnecessary conversions when passing data from on library to another. Euclidean vectors could offer a way to solve this interface problem. As mentioned above, there's still a way to go to get the code ready for formal review, in particular naming, layout, format and licensing issues. If there's interest in the community I'd be happy to do this, so please let my know. I will, however, need assistance in proving (and improving) portability. The library compiles with GNU g++ 3.0.4, 3.3.5 and 3.4.4, but I will be unable to test it on any other platform in the near future. Looking forward to any comments, Andreas
