A second look at the new code revealed that much of the type-extraction functionality I sought has already been implemented in <boost/parameter/aux_/arg_list.hpp>, under the nested struct 'key_value_type' (lines 71-78 and 186-196). However, this struct is defined only for older compilers. Can the definitions be moved out of the conditional macro blocks? That way, a type-extraction metafunction like the following would work: template < class ArgList, class KW, class Default > struct get_key_value_type : mpl::apply2< typename ArgList::key_value_type , KW , Default > { } > Thank you. I've merged your macro change into the > trunk, but I'm holding off the type-extraction code > until we have completed the changes we are currently > working on. No problem. Just don't take too long! My multi-state mazes project makes heavy use of this library. I'm currently working on documentation and a 2-D demo, and I hope to release it to the OS community in three or four weeks. Cromwell D.

Some positive feedback: I tried the changes out on a whole bunch of platforms (http://cci.lbl.gov/cctbx_build/show_results.cgi?build_tag=2005_05_08_0558) and the CVS from about 24 hours ago works flawlessly everywhere. I am mainly testing Boost.Python compilation. Cheers, Ralf __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Calling a python function from C++ to update a progress display widget
by Thierry Lam 09 May '05

09 May '05

Let's say I have the following in a Python file called progress.py: pbar = gtk.ProgressBar() def updateBar(): pbar.puls() In C++: for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) // Call the python method updateBar() which is not a member of any class in progress.py How do I do it? I'm aware of the following 2 functions in boost: call<ResultType>(callable_object, a1, a2... aN); call_method<ResultType>(self_object, "method-name", a1, a2... aN); Can I see an example on how to use them? My goal is to display the progress bar widget live while the for loop is counting from 0 to 9.

[string algorithms] feature request - case-insensitive less
by Joe Gottman 09 May '05

09 May '05

I was looking at the string algorithms library, and I saw it had a case-insensitive equals function, iequals, as well as a predicate class, is_iequal. It would be nice if there were a case-insensitive less-than function and predicate as well. This would facilitate case-insensitive sorting, and set or maps which are sorted case-insensitively.

[filesystem] gcc-3.4.3, fstream_test
by Rene Rivera 09 May '05

09 May '05

For this sole failure on the tests that I run: http://tinyurl.com/92zns I did some investigation and narrowed the problem down to this: ===basic_iostream_char_test.cpp=== #include <fstream> struct my_fstream : public std::basic_fstream<char> { my_fstream() : std::basic_fstream<char>("basic_iostream_char_test.cpp") { } }; int main(int argc, char** argv) { my_fstream f; } ===basic_iostream_char_test.cpp=== Which gives a link error of: undefined reference to `std::basic_iostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >::~basic_iostream()' And AFAICT that particular dtor is not in libstdc++. And for that matter the entire std::basic_iostream<char,..> instance is missing. The strange aspect of this is that this exact test passes on Martin's tests. And of course it's only with this particular gcc. When I compile with 3.3.5, on the same machine, the symbols exist. Could others try compiling the above code? Just need to see if it's just my machine that has this problem before I file a GCC bug report. --grafik

If I understand right the code, even if log is disabled, I do pay for constructing log messages. Am I right? If so why do you force this? Roman

Boost.Test: to-do
by Gennadiy Rozental 08 May '05

08 May '05

Hi, Here is a list of some of the to-do items that I plan to address soon: * I plan finish finally update for CLA support * Once it's done: selective test cases run by name * Boost.Test thread safety need to be achieved at least if BOOST_TEST_THREAD_SAFE is defined. This one will require separate discussion * Some performance testing tools (aka profiler). Unless somebody else will come up with something like this * Build info feature needs to be updated: there are at least two different "build infos": library build and test module build * Auto linking for Boost.Test. Also I really need to work on more tutorial documentation. Two projects that could be very interesting. But I may not be able to do it by myself: * I would like to write an add-on for Visual Studio to automate test case/test modules generation * I may be convenient to have an external test runner: utility that load some libraries dynamically initialize test it contains and execute all/some of them. I was able to make Boost.Test work sunpro 5.3. HP compiler is still a mystery. Any help appreciated. I've made an attempt to implement a DLL version of Boost.Test on windows. And failed. As things looks now it's impossible or at least may require some interface changes. Any help in this direction are greatly appreciated either. If you have any suggestions (or made them before and I forgot about it), here would be a good place to speak up. Regards, Gennadiy
