Marking explicit failures -- need help
by Andrzej Krzemienski 15 Jan '15

15 Jan '15

Hi All, I would like to make some regression tests as expected to fail in explicit-failures-markup.xml, but I have the following problem. Not sure if this is specific to Optional tests: http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/optional.html I have two "columns" with the same toolset label "gcc-4.4.7" from tester "Sandia". On one the test passes, on the other: it fails. This is because on one C++0x is enabled. But I cannot tell it from the toolset label alone, and therefore I cannot make the correct entry in failures-markup.xml: either I mark too much or too little. Does anyone know away around it? Can you mark failures based on something else than toolset name? Regards, Andrzej

On 01/14/2015 10:46 PM, Thomas Heller wrote: > Wanna share it? Which concept are you refering to? I was referring to both type traits on lambdas and an implementation of a tasking library that is allocator free, that you can reset function arguments reuse the task, reuse threads, reset arguments on lambdas, copy tasks while running and still always get accurate information. Thread safe and lock free. Basically a scheduler, task implementation that dare i say rivals boost bind and std::packaged_task. As it can bind any set of arguments to a function , reuse the same function to create new states . It is the core of a bigger lib I have been working on that sends these tasks across machine bounds ( hpc ) and onto the gpu.

Tests that enable <warnings-as-errors>on
by Peter Dimov 15 Jan '15

15 Jan '15

Some test suites, for example Pool and Units, use '<warnings-as-errors>on' in their project requirements, to test for a warning-free compilation. Pool, f.ex. has project : requrements <toolset>gcc:<warnings-as-errors>on <toolset>msvc:<warnings-as-errors>on ; (among others.) This, however, is propagated to dependencies, so that in [ run test_threading.cpp : : : <threading>multi <library>/boost/thread//boost_thread ] Boost.Thread is also built with '<warnings-as-errors>on', which fails. (In addition, some other tests also fail because of warnings.) So I tried to use '<warnings-as-errors>off' only for some tests, but I was unable to come up with a syntax that worked. Putting -<toolset>msvc:<warnings-as-errors>on in the test requirements didn't (no effect). <toolset>msvc:<warnings-as-errors>off didn't (conflict). -<warnings-as-errors>on didn't (no effect). -<warnings-as-errors>on <warnings-as-errors>off didn't (no effect). Is there a way to override the project requirements from the run rule?

[thread] fails to build on Cygwin with weird errors
by Peter Dimov 15 Jan '15

15 Jan '15

Vicente, I'm trying to get the pool tests up and running (they fail across the board, at least on develop), and one of them requires Thread, which fails to build under g++/Cygwin. The errors are of the kind ..\..\..\libs\thread\src\win32\thread.cpp: In member function 'bool boost::thread::start_thread_noexcept()': ..\..\..\libs\thread\src\win32\thread.cpp:337:127: error: 'struct boost::detail::thread_data_base' has no member named 'id' uintptr_t const new_thread=_beginthreadex(0,0,&thread_start_function,thread_info.get(),CREATE_SUSPENDED,&thread_info->id); which leads me to think that, on Cygwin, you're using the POSIX header with the Win32 source file.
