Hi, I have been trying to create a mapping from string to ublas::vector_expression. template <class T> boost::unordered_map<std::string, vector_expression <T> > c; vector<int> v (10); for (unsigned i = 0; i < v.size (); ++ i) v (i) = i; c <int>["first"] = v; I have been getting this error : error: no match for ‘operator=’ (operand types are ‘boost::unordered::unordered_map<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>, boost::numeric::ublas::vector_expression<int>, boost::hash<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >, std::equal_to<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >, std::allocator<std::pair<const std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>, boost::numeric::ublas::vector_expression<int> > > >::mapped_type {aka boost::numeric::ublas::vector_expression<int>}’ and ‘boost::numeric::ublas::vector<int>’) columns <int>["first"] = v; Please help.

[build][geometry][regression] Geometry develop regression tests are blank
by Adam Wulkiewicz 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

Hi, Boost.Geometry develop tests (http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/geometry.html) stopped showing around 22.03. The first blank run (teeks99-03-dc3.9-1z-Docker-64on64) is from Wed, 22 Mar 2017 01:20:13. Do you have an idea what may be the cause? I see that many changes in Build and Regression was done around 22.03. Geometry was also modified that day but the first commit is from 12:40+1 so later than the first blank run. I checked the XML of one of them (teeks99-09-n-win2012R2-64on64) and it seems that the revision attribute of <test-log> tag is not set for the most of the tests. I'm currently running the regression.py myself in hope of finding the cause. I see that in bjam.log the only tests that are dumped are: boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/extensions/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" boost-test(RUN) "geometry/index/varray_old" : "libs/geometry/index/test/varray_old.cpp" boost-test(RUN) "geometry/index/varray" : "libs/geometry/index/test/varray.cpp" boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/index/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" varray tests are the only ones that are run at the most top level of Geometry Jamfiles (of sublib geometry/index in this case) with test-suite: https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/blob/develop/index/test/Jamfile.v2#L24 The rest of the tests is run with build-project, also for the main part of the library: https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/blob/develop/test/Jamfile.v2#L26 The varray tests results are shown on the regression page and can be found in bjam.log and in XML file with revision set. The rest of the tests is neither dumped nor has the revision set, however they are run during regression testing so can be found in bjam.log and also in XML file but with empty revision. Adam

[Boost.Test] Custom DataSet compiler error with no match for »operator^

Hello, I run into a compile problem with [Boost.Test] DataSet. I can reduce it by re-using the example provided by the docs: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/tests_or… #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE dataset_example68 #include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp> #include <boost/test/data/test_case.hpp> #include <boost/test/data/monomorphic.hpp> #include <sstream> namespace bdata = boost::unit_test::data; // Dataset generating a Fibonacci sequence class fibonacci_dataset { public: // Samples type is int using sample=int; enum { arity = 1 }; struct iterator { iterator() : a(1), b(1) {} int operator*() const { return b; } void operator++() { a = a + b; std::swap(a, b); } private: int a; int b; // b is the output }; fibonacci_dataset() {} // size is infinite bdata::size_t size() const { return bdata::BOOST_TEST_DS_INFINITE_SIZE; } // iterator iterator begin() const { return iterator(); } }; namespace boost { namespace unit_test { namespace data { namespace monomorphic { // registering fibonacci_dataset as a proper dataset template <> struct is_dataset<fibonacci_dataset> : boost::mpl::true_ {}; }}}} // Creating a test-driven dataset BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE( test1, fibonacci_dataset() ^ fibonacci_dataset(), fib_sample, exp) { BOOST_TEST(fib_sample == exp); } error: no match for 'operator^' (operand types are 'boost::unit_test::data::result_of::make<fibonacci_dataset>::type {aka fibonacci_dataset}' and 'fibonacci_dataset') fibonacci_dataset() ^ fibonacci_dataset(), My use case has to load input and expect files provides by two datasets.

[review queue] What to do about the library review queue?
by Niall Douglas 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

Dear Boost, I see that new candidate Boost libraries entering the review queue have exploded in recent years, with no less than *twenty-three* proposed libraries awaiting a review. As the ongoing strength and vitality of Boost is inextricably linked to new growth, I think that waiting around for years for someone to volunteer to manage a review is not healthy. If a library author has invested the very significant effort to develop a Boost-quality library, the least Boost can do is to try harder to provide timely reviews and that means persuading more people to volunteer to manage reviews. In the past people have argued that for every library you submit for review, you should manage a review in return. Myself, Antony and a few others have adhered to that rule, and if every library author did so there would be no outstanding review queue. However there are problems in that in itself in terms of moral hazard, and also because the review manager needs to usually be fairly expert in a library being reviewed, else it can be very hard to judge the worth and validity of reviews. A shortage of suitably expert review managers will always be a problem for some types of library. I therefore ask boost-dev what to do? Some options: 1. Pay US$1000 (one thousand) dollars to each person who manages a review. In case you're worried Boost doesn't have the money, it does in spades, that's not a problem. For $23,000 we could clear the current review queue assuming none of the problems mentioned yet. 2. Pay US$1000 dollars to the manager and 2x $500 dollar payments to those writing the top two most useful reviews as judged by the review manager. That makes the cost $2000 per library accepted or rejected, or $46,000 to clear the current review queue. 3. In my own opinion from reviewing the review queue, a good 25% of the libraries in the queue are not ready for review due to obvious glaring deficiencies in the documentation or code. Spending a grand on those libraries which will very obviously be rejected isn't worth the money. What should we do about those? One approach could simply be to trust review managers to not abuse the thousand dollar fee. Another could be that before each new review, the prospective manager needs to write a single line comment on why they did not choose the other libraries in the queue and publish that here before starting a review. That would quickly identify those libraries in the queue which a majority of managers think have serious problems and could never pass any review. If say a library in a queue accumulates three single line black marks, the author might be encouraged to withdraw it. 4. Finally there is the problem of libraries of high quality, but not a good fit for Boost because they are so esoteric and niche that nobody could provide a useful review, and without useful reviews the review manager can't really recommend acceptance. This will be an increasing problem with time anyway as more of the low hanging C++ library fruit is picked, but I suppose one could just kick that decision can down the road and see if 2x $500 payments might help scare up more high quality reviews. 5. We could try guilting more people into review managing, and redouble banging the drum to scare up more volunteers. I look forward to seeing what people think.

Clang 4.0.0 MPL error in Boost next.hpp and prior.hpp
by Paul A. Bristow 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

I am trying to check code that works on VS2015 update 3 and GCC 6.3.0 using Clang 4.0.0 I am using the CodeBlocks IDE (though I don't think that is relevant). The code indirectly uses next.hpp and prior.hpp There are several warnings like this (after adding the -Wignored-attributes option) C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\include\immintrin.h|45|warning: __declspec attribute 'intrin_type' is not supported [-Wignored-attributes] I:\modular-boost\boost\mpl\next_prior.hpp|44|error: too many arguments provided to function-like macro invocation| Following suggestions in this thread, I have added -Wno-invalid-token-paste http://clang-developers.42468.n3.nabble.com/invalid-token-paste-td4025526.h… and also -DBOOST_PP_CONFIG_FLAGS=1, but I get a blizzard of errors - see below It would seem that this may be because of a misconfiguration in Boost mpl? If I understand right, the thread above suggests that this is MS pre-processor-specific MPL code because of code in boost/preprocessor/config/config.hpp that determines the MPL code? Is this correct? Target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc -triple x86_64-pc-windows-msvc19.0.24123 Complete log attached in case this helps. Can anyone say what I am doing wrong and/or suggest a workaround for this?

Constructing string_ref from rvalue string
by Simon Sasburg 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

I've just tested our codebase with the 1.64.0 master snapshot, and i've encountered an issue which i've tracked down to this commit: https://github.com/boostorg/utility/commit/9960d9f395b79ee860e39064cd4696 1f76d2cb55 Basically this removes the constructor which allows constructing a boost::string_ref from an rvalue std::string. I am wondering if this is really that dangerous. In our codebase we almost exlusively use boost::string_ref as function parameters, with the understanding that passed string_refs parameters are only valid within the function body. (so you need to copy it into an std::string if you need to access it afterwards) With these constraints i think it is OK to construct a string_ref from an rvalue std::string because the temporary should live long enough. (but please correct me if i'm wrong here) Is the safety (?) added by this commit worth it if it breaks working code? Simon

Re: [boost] [gsoc17]The implement of Programming competency test From Ruoyun Jing
by Ruoyun Jing 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

Hi Adam and Vissarion, During these days I discussed the ideas of project 1 and begin to write my proposal. Here are what I learn about these project. 1.For the approach of compute the 3D cartesian distances first and if these numbers are not "far enough" then fall back to expensive geographic distance calculation otherwise return the result by comparing those numbers obtained by less expensive cartesian compuation. The main problems is declare the "far enough". To figure out this problem, I would implement the method, test the result between function compare_distance and this method, then adjust parameter to limit deviation in an acceptable range(maybe it would be 1e-6 correapongs, the accurate value should be discussed by specific condition) 2.For the approach of perform a local spheroid approximation and return the 2D distance. The main problem is to test the acceptable range of using spheroid approximation. The solution is same as answer above. 3.For the approach of getting 2 intersections of plane (which would be ellipse) with the help given points and compute the respective distances using those ellipses. In my understand of these approach, it means we need to get cross-section through the center of ellipsoid and the geodesic segments. But I am not sure that the geodesic segments of two points whether can get a cross-section through the center of ellipsoid, and whether the cross-section is ellipse that we can calculate the sectorial area easy to compare. After check out the geodesic knowledge from differential geometry for a long time. I got some prove, but I think it isn't very reliable. 4.I have an reliable approach is that we could use the algorithms in "map projection" just like Lambert Conformal Conic, Gauss–Krüger projection, Mercator projection...etc, Those projections make the point on 3D to 2D with reliable functions, although most of these projections use longitude and latitude, we could transform our cartisian coordinate into Spherical coordinate then transform them into longitude and latitude then use the projection to approximately calculate. All of above is what I discussed during these days, Could you please provide me some advise about them so I can strenthen my proposal?And if there has any problems about my poor English description please tell me, I will try my best to explain more clearly:) Thanks all for your reading! Looking forward from you.:) Ruoyun -- Northwest University of China Software Engineering jingry0321(a)gmail.com <jingry0321(a)163.com>

small_vector alignment
by Tobias Loew 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

Hi, I wanted to use a boost::container::small_vector for 64-bit aligned doubles (to be used with SSE): But it seems that the "small-buffer" has a fixed calculated alignment which only depends on the value-type and does not consider the alignment of the (dynamic) allocator. Is this intended or is it a bug in the implementation? best regards Tobias -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/small-vector-alignment-tp4692694.html Sent from the Boost - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[gsoc17]Dynamic Shortest Path Computation
by A.I 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

Hi, everyone, I am Donghyuk Kim, a Ph.D. Student at KAIST(Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) in South Korea. I've been studying motion/path planning algorithm and I'd like to contribute to a specific algorithm, "Dynamic Shortest Path Computation" in Boost graph library as a google summer code project. It is a tree-based data structure for maintaining single-source to all destination shortest path. It is also known that it outperforms the recomputation of Dijkstra or A* where insertion and deletion of vertex/edge can frequently happen. Here you can check my brief CV including educational/programming background and my interests. https://www.linkedin.com/in/donghyuk-kim-54223355/ Most of my source codes (research/project-purpose things) are in a private repository by our policy, for this reason, the only thing I can share is the below one: https://github.com/aidyk/SGMP The concept of "Dynamic Shortest Path Computation" was originally introduced in [Fully Dynamic Algorithms for Maintaining Shortest Paths Trees] by D. Frigioni, et al. (http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=338900) I've already implemented a prototype for my research, but testing, coding style unification and much more c++ style modification are required for general purpose. I hope someone find it interesting and be a mentor in this journey. Thanks in advance!

Going insane trying to build boost for android
by Robert Dailey 26 Mar '17

26 Mar '17

How many months has it been of lost google searching, trying to beat b2 into submission. I have no idea at this point how to build boost for Android. Really hoping I get some help here... So to start, here are the versions I'm using: - Android NDK r14b - Boost 1.63.0 I'm doing all of this on Windows 10, through command prompt. I want to use clang and libc++ to build boost for API 15. I figure the easiest way is to generate a standalone toolchain using the NDK, so I did that first: > %ANDROID_NDK%\build\tools\make_standalone_toolchain.py --arch arm --api 15 --stl libc++ "C:\android\_toolchains\arm-api-15" This generated the appropriate toolchain (I think). I then temporarily added this location to PATH: > set PATH=C:\android\_toolchains\arm-api-15\bin;%PATH% Then I ran bootstrap: > bootstrap.bat --with-toolset=clang Then I tried to build boost itself: > b2 --toolset=clang cxxflags="-stdlib=libc++ -std=c++14" threadapi=pthread --prefix=..\boost_android_arm --builddir=./ target-os=linux define=BOOST_FILESYSTEM_VERSION=3 --without-python link=static runtime-link=shared threading=multi variant=release install -j8 However I get failures when it tries to run the clang command: 'C:\code\_third_party\boost_1_63_0\\clang38++.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command I'm not sure why it's appending that absolute path (that's where my current directory is set to, and where boost source is). It should just be trying to use "clang++" but doesn't look like it is. >From the output, it looks like it's trying to use clang correctly I think: "clang++" -c -x c++ -stdlib=libc++ -std=c++14 -O3 -Wno-inline -Wall -pthread -stdlib=libc++ -std=c++14 -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_FILESYSTEM_VERSION=3 -DBOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB=1 -DNDEBUG -I"." -o "bin.v2\libs\wave\build\clang-linux-android\release\link-static\target-os-linux\threadapi-pthread\threading-multi\cpplexer\re2clex\aq.o" "libs\wave\src\cpplexer\re2clex\aq.cpp" Am I going about this all wrong? How in the heck can I build boost for android using the settings I specified above?

[SIMD] Pre-review questions
by Artyom Beilis 26 Mar '17

26 Mar '17

Hello, I have several questions regarding Boost.SIMD (for pre-review) 1. What is boost::simd::pack::storage_type I can't find it in documentation. Is it the "native register" like __m128i for pack<int,4>? If the answer is no, how do I get access to underlying type? 2. I can't find in documentation how to performs casts between different types: I see in docs split_low (actually after I grepped for _mm_unpacklo) but I failed to find how to use one - there is no documentation regarding conversion/casting operation or at least I failed to find one. 3. Is there more convenient way to perform basic saturated operation for example if I want to calc abs diff of two bs::pack<unsigned char,16> values a,b I need to write bs::saturated_(be::minus)(a,b) + bs::saturated_(bs::minus)(b,a) It is quite inconvenient especially when most of operations you want to do are saturated. 4. Why Boost.SIMD is restricted to C++11? Most of the stuff is implementable withing C++2003, it severely limits the usability of the library for existing projects that can't trivially switch to new C++ standard (and there are too many in the "real world" industry) Thanks, Artyom

[asio]ssl::detail::stream_core is accessed after destruction
by Takatoshi Kondo 26 Mar '17

26 Mar '17

Hello, I'm using Boost.Asio. I compiled some TLS client with clang address sanitizer. (I attached the result the last part of this mail.) It indicates that the following `expires_at` member function calling is bad: https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/boost-1.63.0/include/boost/asio/ssl/d… So I insert debug print "stream_core() address" to the constructor of ssl::detail::stream_core https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/boost-1.63.0/include/boost/asio/ssl/d… "~stream_core() address" to the destructor, https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/boost-1.63.0/include/boost/asio/ssl/d… and "io stream_core address of core_" to `expires_at` calling point: https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/boost-1.63.0/include/boost/asio/ssl/d… And then, I got the following result: stream_core() 0x6120012beb60 constructor ~stream_core() 0x6120012ca6e0 connected. previous session = false stream_core() 0x6120012ba060 ~stream_core() 0x6120012beb60 destructor io stream_core 0x6120012beb60 call Is seems that `expires_at` at https://github.com/boostorg/asio/blob/boost-1.63.0/include/boost/asio/ssl/d… is called after core_ 's destructor is called. The problem happens a part of big project. The client connects to the server as TLS-stream, then server shutdown the stream, then client connects again. The program does the sequence repeatedly. The error happens the client side. I'm trying to write a minimal and complete code that reproduces the problem, but not yet. So I report the result only as the first report.

Re: [boost] Formal Review Request: mp11

On 03/17/2017 03:06 PM, Peter Dimov via Boost wrote: > https://github.com/pdimov/mp11/ A few comments... Most algorithms take the typelist as the first argument, but others do not, e.g. mp_transform<F, L...>. If possible, I would like to see all algorithms take typelist as the first argument. It looks like the current order is dictated by the requirements of mp_tranform_impl. Would it be possible to swap the types where the algorithm is declared? For example: template<class L, template<class...> class F> using mp_transform = typename detail::mp_transform_impl<F, L>::type; Apropos mp_transform, would it be possible to extend it such that we can pass a type-trait directly to it? For example: using const_list = mp_transform<std::add_const, typelist>; instead of using std::add_const_t. The reason I ask is that I have lots of my own domain-specific type-traits that does not come with a _t version, so this is mainly for convenience. The reference documentation is a bit terse and obscure. For example, the documentation for mp_find tells us in a convoluted way that it returns the index of a type in a typelist. It could also mention that it is the dual algorithm to mp_at, which returns a type at an index in a typelist.
